Step-by-Step Instructions

Preparing the Dough

  1. Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, and sugar. Stir until well blended.
  2. Cut in the Butter: Add the cold butter cubes to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Add the Water: Gradually add the cold water to the mixture, stirring gently until the dough begins to come together. Be careful not to overwork the dough.
  4. Form the Dough: Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it just enough to bring it together into a smooth ball. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
