Instructions

2. Put the butter in the center and knead these elements as quickly as possible by adding cold water.
3. Gather the dough into a ball even if there are some patches of unincorporated butter, without too much work the dough not to be too elastic.
4. Flatten the dough slightly and film it. Put the dough in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
5. Then whisk the dough, then lower it on the lightly floured work surface, according to a variable thickness depending on the use.

Notes

I prepare several that I freeze to always have a ready to hand when the time comes and save time. They keep 2-3 months in the freezer. Divide your dough into several dough pieces and shape dough pieces in the shape of a rectangle on a regular thickness. Then wrap them in food film before putting them in the freezer. As thawing will be more homogeneous and the dough pieces will be ready to be spread.
