Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine 120 g all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon fine salt.
  2. Add 60 g unsalted butter chilled and cubed to the flour mixture.
  3. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to blend the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized pieces of butter.
  4. Slowly add 30 ml cold water to the mixture, stirring gently with a fork to bring the dough together.
  5. Turn the dough onto a clean surface and knead lightly just until it forms a smooth ball.
  6. Flatten the dough ball into a disk shape and wrap it in plastic wrap.
  7. Let the dough rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before rolling out.
  8. After resting, roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness for pie crust.

Tips

  • Do not overwork the dough to keep it tender.
