All-Butter Piecrust
 
Makes 1 (9-inch) piecrust
Ingredients
  • 1½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ cup cold unsalted butter, cut into ½-inch cubes
  • ⅓ cup ice water, plus more as needed
Instructions
  1. In the work bowl of a food processor, place flour and salt; pulse until combined. Add cold butter, and pulse until mixture is crumbly and butter is pea-size. With processor running, add ⅓ cup ice water in a slow, steady stream just until dough comes together. (Mixture may appear crumbly. It should be moist and hold together when pinched.) Add more ice water as needed.
  2. On a lightly floured surface, turn out dough, and press into a flat disk. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 2 days. After 2 days, dough can be kept in the freezer for up to three months. If using from frozen, allow to thaw in the fridge overnight.
