Timpano Savory Pie Crust

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup(2 sticks) frozen, unsalted butter
- cut into 1 tablespoons pieces
pinch (scant 1/4 tsp.) salt
2 large eggs

While actual preparation is quick, the crust will need to rest in the refrigerator for at least one hour.

Combine the flour, butter and salt in the bowl of a food processor and pulse about ten times for one second for each pulse. Add the eggs and run the machine steadily until a ball forms and just begins to clean the sides of the bowl.

If the dough seems too soft, add 1 - 2 tablespoons flour and run the machine for five or six seconds to recombine the mixture.

If the dough seems too dry, add 1 - 2 tablespoons ice water and do the same.

Turn the dough ball out onto plastic wrap, cover tightly and
refrigerate for at least one hour.
