Preparation Sieve the flour and put it into a large bowl together with a pinch of salt. Cut the butter into small pieces and soften them, then place them in the middle of the flour. Using your fingers, crumble the dough until you have small pieces.
Open out the pieces and knead them together with the cold water until you have a smooth dough. Make it into a ball and wrap it around with cling film. Put it into the refrigerator in a place where it is not too cold for at least two hours. The Chef's tips Knead the dough quickly to avoid warming it. Curiosity This dough is suitable for salty pies or for cakes with soft fillings.
