Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
  • 1/4-1/2 cup ice water

Instruction

  • Whisk the flour and salt together.
  • Cut butter into small cubes or pats and add to flour mixture.
  • Use a pastry cutter or two knives to cut butter into flour mixture until crumbly and well distributed. Pea-sized bits of butter will remain, this is okay!
  • Add 1/4 cup of the ice water to the mixture and stir well. When dough comes together, begin working it with your hands. Add more water as necessary, a little at a time until the dough just holds together. Be careful not to add too much water at once.
  • Form dough into a ball then flatten into a disk. Chill for 30 minutes before rolling out.
