What are some tips for making perfect streusel?

Perfect Streusel

For perfect pie streusel, add a bit of cornmeal to the flour, and use melted butter instead of softened. The structure of the fat breaks down when melted, so the fat soaks all the way through the flour instead of remaining on the surface. The result? Crisp, tender streusel.
