Pate Brisee

  • 1-8 hours

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp. sugar
  • 1 cup cold butter, cut into small pieces
  • 1/4 to 1/2 cup ice water

Directions

  1. Pulse flour and sugar in a food processor (or whisk together by hand in bowl). Add butter, and pulse, or use pastry blender, until mixture resembles coarse meal, with some larger pieces remaining. Drizzle 1/4 cup water over mixture, pulse (or mix with fork), until the mixture begins to hold together. If it seems too dry, add another 1/4 cup of water, 1 tbs. at a time and pulse again.
  2. Turn out onto counter, and wrap in plastic wrap tightly, chilling for about one hour, or overnight.
