Ingredients:
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour |
2 tablespoons sugar |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 stick (1/2 cup) cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes |
1 large egg yolk |
1 1/2 tablespoons ice water |
Directions:
1. Whisk together flour, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Blend in butter with your fingertips or a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal with some small (roughly pea-size) butter lumps. Beat together yolk and water with a fork and stir into flour mixture until combined well.
2. Gently knead mixture in bowl with floured hands just until a dough forms. Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently 4 or 5 times more. Form dough into a ball, then flatten into a 5-inch disk. Chill, wrapped tightly in plastic wrap, at least 1 hour.
3. Cooks' note: Dough can be chilled up to 2 days.
