Rough Puff

Recipe by Anna Theoktisto from allrecipes.com

Ingredient 4 Hr. 30 Mins.

Ingredients

8

8 servings

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
  • 0.5 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 0.5 cup cold water

Instructions

  • Place flour and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Add butter and toss with your fingertips until evenly coated with flour.
  • Add water to bowl. Mix on low speed until the dough forms a shaggy mass, about 45 seconds.
  • Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until butter is firm but not brittle, about 20 minutes.
  • Transfer dough to a floured work surface and roll into a 1/2-inch-thick rectangle that is about 10 1/2 x 6 inches.
  • Fold one third of the longer side of the dough over the center third of dough. Fold the final third over the center (like you would fold a letter). Tightly wrap folded dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled, about 30 minutes. Repeat this process of rolling, folding and refrigerating 4 more times, turning the dough 90 degrees each time before rolling.
  • After completing the final fold, wrap the dough tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour or up to 2 days.
