Critical Success Points

  • Keep butter and water very cold
  • Grate the butter quickly to avoid warming
  • Do not knead the dough, mix just enough to bind
  • Chill the dough between each turn
  • Bake in a very hot oven (200 °C) without opening the door during the first minutes

Safety Warnings

  • Handling frozen butter can make hands slippery – work on a stable surface.
  • The oven reaches 200 °C – use kitchen gloves.
  • Use a sharp knife with care.
