Ingredients

1. 1 cup all-purpose flour
2. 1/4 teaspoon sugar
3. Large pinch of salt
4. 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into bits
5. About 2 1/2 tablespoons ice water

Directions

1. In a food processor, combine the flour, sugar and salt. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add 2 1/2 tablespoons of the water and pulse just until the pastry comes together; add more water if necessary. On a lightly floured surface, shape the pastry into a disk, wrap in plastic and re-frigerate until chilled, about 30 minutes.

Make Ahead

The pastry can be refrigerated for up to 2 days or frozen for up to 1 month.
