About Pie dough
Pie dough is an uncooked pastry mixture intended to be shaped into a pie base or covering. It commonly combines flour and fat with a limited amount of liquid, though recipes may include salt, sugar, or other ingredients. Before baking, it is pliable and may be rolled into a sheet; chilling and handling affect how easily it shapes and the texture of the baked pastry.
It is sold as a raw, chilled, or frozen dough, or mixed at home. The term covers different formulas, including doughs made with different fats and proportions, and does not by itself specify a sweet or savory style. Dough becomes a crust or shell only after it is shaped and baked, so its nutrition differs from those prepared forms.
