Pastry Preparation
- 1
Make the Dough
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together. Form the dough into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Pre-Bake the Crust
Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork to prevent bubbling. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and allow to cool.

Fill and Finish
Once the crust is cooled, fill it with your desired sweet filling (such as fruit, custard, or chocolate) and bake according to the filling's instructions. Let cool before serving.
