Ingredients
- 250 grams All-purpose flour
- 175 grams Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 120 grams Sour cream
- 1 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the all-purpose flour and salt together to combine.
Step 2
Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized pieces of butter remaining.
Step 3
Add the sour cream gradually to the flour-butter mixture. Using a fork or your hands, mix until the dough just comes together but is not sticky. Avoid overmixing to ensure a tender pastry.
Step 4
Turn the dough out onto a clean work surface and gently press it together into a disc shape. Wrap the disc in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the pastry to chill and rest.
Step 5
Once chilled, remove the dough from the refrigerator. Lightly flour your work surface and rolling pin, and roll the pastry out to the desired thickness (approximately 3-4 mm). Use as needed for your pie or tart recipe.
Step 6
Bake according to your specific recipe's instructions for fillings and crust.
