Sugar-free dough

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   Let's prepare the ingredients, there are only three of them. The main condition is that the products: butter and water necessary for the preparation of shortbread dough must be cooled. The water can even be kept in the freezer so that it is icy. This will allow you to get especially crispy products made from such dough. In a bowl, put the cold butter, just taken out of the refrigerator. We cut it into cubes with a knife, we try not to touch it with our hands.

2. Step 2:

   

   Pour in the sifted wheat flour. Previously, two knives were used to prepare such a dough for chopping butter and flour, now modern housewives have a lot of electrical appliances that allow them to create complex and interesting dishes without difficulty and extra time, including baking dough.

3. Step 3:

   

   We grind these ingredients with a mixer or blender into crumbs, but not with our hands, so as not to transfer our heat to the ingredients, otherwise the dough will not turn out the way it should be.

5. Step 4:

   

   Then we start pouring chilled water into a bowl with sand crumbs, you need to do it one tablespoon at a time, mixing the mass with a mixer each time until the crumbs become small and the same size.

6. Step 5:

   

   After that, we collect the dough with our hands into a ball. You do not need to knead the dough with your hands for a long time, otherwise the products from it will turn out solid and dense. The main task is to put the dough together. Wrap the ball of shortbread dough in plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator for half an hour. The shortbread dough should cool well, it does not like heat. Now you can move on to rolling out and creating the basics for baking from unsweetened shortbread dough or baking itself. Bon appetit!
