Sablé dough (pâte sablée) is a crisp, crumbly tart dough made by rubbing butter into flour and binding it with sugar and egg. Its high butter content gives it a sandy texture that crumbles when bitten. It is used for sweet tart shells and cookie bases.
Where It’s Used
“Spread the sablé dough into the tart pan, prick it with a fork, and parbake it.”
