Pasta Brisée Shortcrust pastry
Ingredients (serves 4-6) • 300 g flour • 150 g butter • 1 pinch of salt • 100 mls cold water
Sieve the flour and the salt onto a flat surface or pasta board. Cut the butter into smaller cubes and add to the flour, incorporating quickly. Then add the ice water little by little, kneading rapidly to form a ball of dough. This must be left in the fridge, wrapped in plastic film for around 1 hour. After an hour, on a floured board, the dough can be rolled out with a rolling pin and used to line a pie dish for the savoury tart.
