Steps
To make the dough, you may use a stand mixer (like a Kitchen Aid appliance) with the 'paddle', or knead everything manually, or with a spatula |
 |
 Make sure the Butter is not liquid and not too hot ! If that's your case, wait for the butter to cool down |
 |
 | Mix together : the Butter (½ Cup or 137 g), theSugar (½ Cup or 100 g), theAlmond Flour (½ Cup or 37 g) and theSalt (1 pinch) |
 | Then add the Egg (1) and theFlour (1 ¾ Cup or 250 g). DO NOT add water ! this would make the dough elastic, and it would shrink while baking ! |
Knead for 1 to 2 minutes |
 |
 | Almost done! |
Frasage (fraisage)You need to "fraser" (French term) to 'activate' the gluten : to do this, just spread the dough several times on the work surface (counter) |
 |
 | Then shape into a ball |
Rest in the fridgeYou now need to let the dough "rest" in the fridge. Wrap airtight, and then place in the refrigeratorovernight |
