To get as much delicate buttery flavour as possible into a dough and to maximise flakiness, you need to use enough butter. However, to keep from melting the butter and creating an excessively soft dough, I recommend you mix this one in a food processor. If you then remember to chill the dough after mixing it and again after rolling it, you’ll enjoy both a superior texture and flavour.
