Critical Success Points

  • Do not overwork the dough when adding the flour.
  • Keep the dough well chilled throughout the process (refrigeration, freezing).
  • Prick the base with a fork before baking to prevent puffing.

Safety Warnings

  • Handle the hot oven: wear oven mitts.
  • Use a very sharp knife with care.
  • Butter and egg are at room temperature; avoid cross‑contamination.
