Method
Dough Preparation
- 1
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Whisk together until evenly combined.
- 2
Cut in Butter
Add the unsalted butter to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- 3
Add Water
Gradually add the cold water to the mixture, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until a dough begins to form. You may need slightly more or less water, so add it gradually.
- 4
Knead the Dough
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead gently until it’s smooth, about 5-7 minutes. Be careful not to over-knead the dough.
- 5
Chill the Dough
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before rolling out.
