Ingredients

The ingredients are:
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup lard (semi frozen but not rock hard)
  • 3/4 cup butter (semi-frozen but not rock hard)
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup vodka (cold from the fridge)
  • 3 to 4 tablespoons water (ice-cold, let the water sit in ice for 10 minutes)
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Pulse the flour, lard, sugar, salt and 4 tablespoons of the butter in a food processor until it has the consistency of a fine meal. Add the remaining 8 tablespoons butter, and pulse until you have pea-sized pieces.

  • Step 2: Sprinkle the vodka and water over the flour, and pulse until the dough just comes together.

  • Step 3: Evenly divide the dough between 2 pieces of plastic wrap, and gently pat each into a round. Wrap each round tightly and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour and up to overnight. (The dough can be frozen for up to 2 months.)
