Cooking the dish according to the recipe:

For the testCombine the flour, sugar, and a pinch of salt in a large bowl. Stir in the cold butter with a pastry blender or by hand until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add 3 tablespoons of ice water until the dough comes together without becoming too sticky. If it still falls apart, add more cold water, 1 teaspoon at a time. Form the dough into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
On a floured surface, roll the dough out with a rolling pin into a circle 28-30 cm in diameter. Place the dough in a 20 cm pie pan; press firmly into the bottom and sides. Trim off any excess, then fold the dough over the edges. Refrigerate until ready to make the filling.

Place the baking sheet on the bottom rack of the oven and preheat to 190°C.

Make the fillingBeat the pumpkin in a bowl with butter and a pinch of salt. Add and beat 3 eggs with sugar.

Stir in the cream, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Pour the filling into the pie dish. Lightly beat the egg white, then brush the edges of the pie dish with the filling. Carefully place the pie dish on a preheated baking sheet, reduce the temperature to 160°C (325°F), and bake until the filling is set but still jiggles slightly, like jelly. Let cool completely.
