1. Insert the chopping blade into the work bowl of the food processor. Add the flour and salt and process on Low for 10 seconds to sift. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
2. Pour in water 1 tablespoon at a time and pulse until mixture just forms a dough – you may not need all of the water. Divide dough equally into two pieces and form each into a flat disc; wrap in plastic and
refrigerate until ready to use.
NOTE: As long as it is well wrapped, this pastry freezes well for up to 6 months.
