Shortcrust dough
Description
Delicious baked goods for the whole family. 1. Chill the butter thoroughly before making the dough. For example, place it in the freezer for about 15 minutes. Sift the flour and let it rest for at least a quarter of an hour. 2. Put the flour in a bowl, then add the finely chopped butter on top. Using a mixer, a fork, or your hand, mash the mixture until it becomes a uniform, buttery flour. 3. Add the egg and sour cream to the mixture. Mix thoroughly again. Now you will have not just buttery flour, but a viscous, buttery dough. If it is too dry, add another 0.5–1 tbsp of sour cream and knead. 4. Shape the ready dough into a ball, place it in a food‑grade polyethylene bag, and refrigerate for an hour – this time can be used to prepare the filling. Serve warm or chilled. Perfect with tea.
