300g all-purpose flour, sifted
250g butter or margarine
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 to 2 cups of water
300g all-purpose flour, sifted
250g butter or margarine
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 to 2 cups of water
Make a hole in the center of the flour mound, pour in the salt and water slowly
Mix delicately until you get a firm dough, but not too dry
This dough should have the same consistency as the butter or margarine that will be used later: not too soft, but also not hard
Gather the dough into a ball shape and let it rest for about 30 minutes
Roll out the dough afterwards with a rolling pin and place on top of the butter or margarine in 4 to 5 pieces
Fold the dough back over the butter and roll lightly dusted with flour, stretch the dough
Fold the dough again and roll out and fold it again
Let it rest for another 20 minutes and then roll out and fold it twice more
The dough is now ready.
