sweet pastry with mandarin zest

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Melt the butter.

    In a mixing bowl, sift the flour with the bicarbonate and add the sugar and the mandarin zest.

    Pour the liquid ingredients over the top: egg, milk, butter, and mix it all together.

    The pastry should be supple. If it isn’t, it’ll be hard to roll out. In that case, add a tablespoon (or a little more) of milk.

    Leave it to rest for at least an hour in the fridge. If you make it the day before, take it out an hour before rolling it.
