"This has the TASTE and the TEXTURE of a graham cracker crust, but without the fat and calories and with necessary fiber. It's absolutely delish!

"This is the recipe I use for sweet tarts requiring a rich short crust. It can be made by hand or with a food processor and makes enough dough for an 11" tart. If making a smaller tart be sure you still roll the dough out to an 1/8" thickness. This recipe cannot be halved successfully. If at any time the dough becomes unworkable, refrigerate..."

"This is a (slighty tweaked) recipe from Mariette Crafford, a South African food writer. It's the best shortcrust pastry I've ever tasted.

The cornstarch (known as cornflour here) practically..."

"This is from a Five Roses Flour Cookbook. I have no idea when it was printed; all I could find is '24th edition'. It is probably older than me .. over 31 years old; my Father had this cookbook and it was all torn up when I was a kid, but I found one a few years ago at Value Village. And of course the original name isn't Totally Awesome,..."
