- Flaky Dough Techniques: Understand the science of fat temperature and moisture control, learning how to achieve a marbled, "shingled" dough.
- Gluten Management: Master the delicate balance of hydrating flour without overworking it, ensuring a tender crust rather than a tough one.
- Berry Filling Dynamics: Learn how to balance the acidity and sweetness of seasonal berries, including the critical use of thickeners to prevent a "soggy bottom."
