Crust
In a bowl mix together flour and salt. Add butter and mix until you get a firm mass. Add the egg yolk, brown sugar and vanilla and knead until you get a nice dough. Wrap it in food foil and leave it in the fridge for at least an hour.
Take out the dough from the fridge and let it stand for 10-15 min at room temperature.
Sprinkle a little flour on the kitchen surface and roll out the crust. Put the crust in the pie baking pan (20 cm). You can press the crust to the sides of the baking pan to get the edges. With a fork make several holes in the pie crust.
Bake the crust for 25 min. Let it cool down.
