Method

Pâte Brisée

Sieve flour, salt and sugar into a mixing bowl. Rub in the softened butter with the tips of the fingers until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Do this very gently and lightly or the mixture will become greasy and heavy. Roll into a ball and chill for ½ hour or more.

When ready to use, turn on to a floured board and knead or pat pastry lightly into a round. P
