Instructions
1
Mix flour and salt together in a large bowl. Cut butter into the flour mixture until it is the consistency of breadcrumbs.
2
Lightly beat eggs together in a separate bowl; stir into butter-flour mixture. Add water, a few tablespoons at a time, and mix just until incorporated, using your hands to bring dough together.
3
Turn dough onto a floured work surface and cut into 4 portions. Refrigerate dough for 15 to 30 minutes before using.
