Instructions for Butterdej Grunddej

To prepare the Butterdej Grunddej recipe, please follow these instructions:

First mix the butter and wheat flour for rolling out thoroughly. Roll the mixture smoothly and uniformly between two pieces of parchment paper so that it gets a size of approx. 38 x 24 cm. Set aside, cool.

Mix the ingredients of the dough easily together. Eat it for a smooth dough. If necessary, add water if necessary, so you can better control the process - without the mass becoming too sticky if too much liquid is added. Let the dough rest cold and covered for approx. 20 minutes.

Roll the dough on a lightly floured table to double the size of the butter plate. Lay the butter plate on one half of the rolled dough and fold the other half over. Press the dough lightly along the edges. Then roll the dough into an elongated flat. Fold the dough into three layers, pack it in and place it cold for a few minutes.

Repeat the dough and repeat the process four times, with a small break between each time. Place the dough cold until the next day.

This basic recipe can be used for many different cakes and desserts baked with butter dough.
