Method
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.
- Add the chilled butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or fork to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gradually add the cold water to the mixture. Mix gently until the dough starts to come together, avoiding overworking it.
- Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead gently until it forms a cohesive ball.
- Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- After chilling, roll out the dough on a floured surface until it's about 1/8 inch thick.
- Using a round cutter, cut out circles from the rolled dough.
- Fill each circle with desired filling and fold over to form a half-moon shape. Seal the edges by crimping with a fork.
Notes
Make sure to keep your dough cold throughout the process for the best texture.
