3
Add the cold water and quickly bring together with your hands, without kneading, just until the dough comes together.
💡Knead as little as possible: long kneading develops gluten, and the dough comes out tough and shrinks in the oven.
4
Wrap in plastic wrap and chill at least 30 minutes.
⚙ Wrapping and Chilling the DoughPlastic wrapRefrigerator
💡Chilling firms the butter and relaxes the gluten: the dough rolls out easily, doesn't stick to the counter and doesn't shrink in the oven.
5
Roll out the dough into a round. Transfer to a pan lined with parchment paper.
⚙ Rolling Out DoughRolling pinParchment paperBaking pan
💡Roll from the center outward and give the dough a quarter turn between rolls: this keeps it even in thickness and stops it sticking to the counter. If it springs back, cover for 10–15 minutes and try again.
