2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
2 sticks butter, unsalted, cut into 1 tbsp. pieces., very cold
1/4 to 1/2 cup water, cold
Put the flour, salt and sugar into a food processor and pulse once or twice. Add the butter and process until the mixture looks grainy. Then slowly, while pulsing, add the water until you can form the dough by pressing it between your fingers.
