1. Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy for 3 minutes, using a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, stopping on occasion to scrape down sides and bottom. Add the flour, salt and sugar and mix on low speed until fully incorporated about one minute. Add the egg yolk and continue to mix on low speed until the dough comes together about 30 seconds. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for one hour (or up to 4 days).
2. Remove from the refrigerator. Flour your work surface really well so the dough does not stick, and sprinkle the top of the dough with a little flour. With a rolling pin flatten to the desired shape. I used a 13 by 4-inch tart pan. A 10-inch round tart pan will work well too. Roll out dough, starting in the middle and rolling outward, to a 1/4 inch thick disk or rectangle, depending on your tart pan.
3. Don’t worry if dough tears or crumbles, it’s easily pressed together in the tart pan. Lift over the rolling pin and place in a tart pan with removable bottom. Patch holes or tears by pressing dough with fingers. Press dough into sides, corners and bottom. Roll the rolling pin over the top of the tart pin for a clean even edge. Refrigerate 30 minutes -this is important.
4. Bake at 350 for 30 -35 minutes, positioned in the center of the oven, until golden and delicious smelling. Let cool before filling, and remove tart ring.
