Critical Success Points

  • Incorporating cold butter without melting it
  • Adding the egg and water just enough to bring the dough together
  • Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes
  • Blind‑baking with parchment and weights to prevent puffing

Safety Warnings

  • Handle raw egg with clean hands and wash surfaces to avoid salmonella risk.
  • Use oven mitts when removing hot parchment and weights.
