Chill everything before working with this pastry,it's extremely soft and difficult to manage in a warm climate. E.g. Roll it on a frozen oven tray etc if needed. Handle as little and as fast as you can.However, it does taste good. I used it to make bases for little lemon curd tarts and they tasted delicious! A bit too delicious.... ;) yum.
