PREPARE THE CRUST

1

Cube the butter into 1/2 inch pieces.

FREEZE

2.

Place them on a freezer-safe plate or cutting board and freeze until very firm, approximately 30 minutes.

SIFT

3.

Sift together the flour, salt, and sugar.

PULSE

4.

Add the flour mixture to a food processor along with the butter. Pulse the ingredients until the butter is cut into coarse crumbs.

DOUGH WILL FORM

5.

Add the ice cold water 2 tablespoons at a time while pulsing the food processor until the mixture becomes a crumbly dough and forms together.

FORM

6.

On an un-floured surface, turn the dough out and shape it into a circle approximately 6" in diameter, kneading as little as possible (pockets of butter are what keep the crust flaky and tender).
