Whole wheat Pastry

How to make Whole wheat Pastry Recipe

Ingredients:
80g standard plain flour
80g wholemeal or whole-wheat flour
120g butter
good pinch of salt
70ml cold water

Method:
Place the two flours, butter and salt in a large mixing bowl. Using your fingertips, gently rub ingredients together until they resemble rough breadcrumbs. Do not over-mix otherwise butter will begin to melt from the heat of your fingers.

Add water and mix until a dough is formed. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes or overnight.

Gently re-work pastry before using, taking care to ensure it remains cold and firm.

On a lightly floured surface, roll out pastry into a sheet about 3mm thick or as stated in your recipe.
