Métricas Técnicas
"Blind" Baking
Often blind-baked to ensure a crisp base, especially for custard or no-bake fillings.
Butter Ratio
High butter content (up to 50% by weight of flour) contributes to its tender texture.
Dough Handling
Best chilled for at least 30 minutes before rolling to prevent sticking.
