Critical Success Points

  • Achieve a coarse sandy texture by working the butter into the flour.
  • Observe the 30‑minute refrigeration rest.
  • Wrap the dough tightly around the filling log to prevent leaks during baking.

Safety Warnings

  • Handle the knife carefully to avoid cuts.
  • The oven is very hot; use kitchen gloves.
  • Raw egg may contain salmonella; ensure it is fully cooked in the dough.
