Sandy Dough for Tarts, Tartlets, and Various Pastries
This is a fine and pleasant dough that crumbles when chewed, which undoubtedly gives it its name. It is used for both small pastries that can be shaped in different and charming ways and for very refined tarts.
The way the ingredients are incorporated and kneaded results in this crumbly-looking dough.
The given quantities are enough for a 20 cm (8-inch) diameter tart, about 15 tartlets, or about 20 shortbread cookies.
With this dough, I prepared a banana and strawberry tart that you can find in my recipe collection, but I made a small change to give it a different flavor by replacing 100 g of flour with 100 g of ground almonds, and I can tell you it turned out wonderful.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Place the sugar in a bowl, add the whole egg and salt.
- 2
Mix the ingredients until a voluminous cream forms.
- 3
Add all the flour at once, previously sifted, and mix.
- 4
Stir the dough with your fingers, turning it into countless small grains. This technique is called "sanding" the dough.
- 5
Add the butter, cut into small pieces, to the center of the dough.
- 6
Incorporate the butter pieces into the dough with your hands and knead until smooth and not sticky.
- 7
Form a ball of dough, place it on a floured surface.
- 8
Roll out the dough with a rolling pin. To make a tart, transfer the rolled-out dough onto a greased and floured mold. To make tartlets, cut the dough pieces slightly larger than the molds.
- 9
Prick the dough with a fork if baking it blind, meaning without any filling, just the dough.
- 10
Bake at a rather low temperature as this type of dough requires.
- 11
Remove from the oven when it has a light blonde or soft golden color.
- 12
Let the tarts cool before removing them from the mold, as this dough breaks easily when hot.

Basic Sweet Short Tart Crust (Pâte Sucrée) Basic Sweet Short Tart Crust (Pâte Sucrée)
After trying many different recipes for this crust, this is the one I've settled on for now. If I discover a better ratio of ingredients, I'll revamp!When bringing the butter to room temperature, the idea is to make it soft, to the point where you can easily press your finger into it. So if you warm it in the microwave, watch it carefully so that it doesn't melt. (In my case, I put it in on a low setting and heat it once for 30 seconds, then for another 20 seconds if necessary)If you use vanilla oil, it gives a much more pleasant smell when baking than if you use vanilla essence, so I recommend you use the oil.

Basic Tart Crust (Pâte Sucrée) Basic Tart Crust (Pâte Sucrée)
This is the tart crust (pâte sucrée) recipe I have been using for ages. It's not too sweet, so it goes with any kind of filling.When making pâte sucrée, make sure you mix the dough very well as though you are kneading it (Foncer dough is mixed by cutting in the butter). This recipe makes a large amount of dough to make sure it fits nicely in the tart pan. The extra dough can be baked as is to make shortbread or you can use it to make mini tarts. Or you can save it and mix it in the next time you make tart dough. It will keep 5 days in the refrigerator and 2 weeks in the freezer. Recipe by Yukiline -
My Tart Crust My Tart Crust
It won't break easily but is easy to handle. It's flaky and delicious .That's my tart crust.This crust won't shrink that much when it's baked. But if you are worried, use baking beans .Step 8: Flip over the dough and tart mold quickly! If you do it slowly, it will crack and you'll have to do it all over again.Step 6: When you bring the dough to room temperature in a microwave, heat for 20 seconds at 500W. Recipe by peko&poko -

Basic Pâte Sucrée (Tart Crust) Basic Pâte Sucrée (Tart Crust)
I wanted to make a basic tart crust.If you use butter freshly taken out of the fridge you can slightly microwave it, to warm, but do not melt it.If you stick to the rule of leaving the butter and egg at room temperature and chilling the dough to rest in the fridge as needed, you will never fail.
