Preparation
- In a large bowl, mix the flour and salt together.
- Add the cold cubed butter and blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

- Turn the dough onto a floured surface and shape it into a rectangle.
- Roll out the dough into a larger rectangle, then fold it into thirds like a letter.
- Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Repeat the rolling and folding process two more times before using.
Serving
- Homemade puff pastry can be used for both sweet and savory dishes.
- Create tarts, pastries, or use it as a base for pot pies.

Notes
Keep all your ingredients cold to achieve the flaky texture. If the dough gets too warm while rolling, take breaks and refrigerate. Use a sharp knife for clean edges.
