Ingredients:
1.5 cups of flour (can be 1 cup of all-purpose white flour and 1/2 cup of wheat flour)
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 cup cold butter
3 to 5 tablespoons ice water, as needed

Mix the flour and salt in a bowl, then cut in the butter, using your fingers or two knives, until it resembles coarse meal. Lightly stir in the water a tablespoon at a time until you can bring the dough together in a ball. If crumbs remain on the bottom, add a few drops of water so that you can pull them together as well. Shape the dough into a disk and roll it out into a circle 1/8 inch thick. If the dough is so warm that it's sticky, refrigerate for 15 minutes, then roll it out.
