Empanada Dough

Empanada Dough3 cups Flour (plus a little more for kneading)
1 teaspoon Salt
1/2 cup Cold Water
1 Egg
1 Egg White
1 teaspoon Vinegar
3 tablespoons Butter

In a bowl, beat the water, egg, egg white and vinegar together. Set aside.

In a separate bowl, mix together the 3 cups of flour and salt.

Cut the butter into the flour mix with a pastry blender or two butter knives. Make a well in the center of the flour mix and pour the liquid ingredients from the first bowl into the center.

Mix the wet and dry ingredients with a fork until it becomes stiff.

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead it just until all the flour is incorporated and the dough is smooth.

Wrap the dough in plastic and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, but never more than 24 hours.

Prepare the work surface by lightly flouring the area where you plan to roll out the dough.

The beginnings of a great meal!
