Question

what are the proportions in a 3-2-1 pie dough? *

three parts water, two parts flour, one part fat

three parts fat, two parts water, one part flour

three parts flour, two parts fat, one part water

three parts sugar, two parts flour, one part fat

Explanation:

In a 3 - 2 - 1 pie dough, the standard proportion is three parts flour, two parts fat, and one part water. By analyzing each option: the first option has incorrect components (water as three parts), the second has wrong proportions for fat, water, and flour, and the fourth has sugar which is not part of the basic 3 - 2 - 1 pie dough proportion. The third option matches the standard 3 (flour) - 2 (fat) - 1 (water) ratio.

Answer:

C. Three parts flour, two parts fat, one part water (assuming the third option is labeled C; if the original options' labels are different, adjust accordingly. Here, the third option in the list is "Three parts flour, two parts fat, one part water")
