Step-by-step preparation of shortcrust pastry in butter with sour cream, recipe with photo:
1. Cut cold butter into slices of any size and place in the bowl of a food processor. Do not use frozen butter and do not use warm temperature, otherwise the dough will not turn out crispy.
2. Add raw eggs to the bowl of the food processor.
3. Pour cold sour cream next.
4. Sift the flour through a fine sieve so that it is enriched with oxygen and the dough becomes softer. Add it to the food processor along with the sugar, salt and baking soda.
5. Knead the elastic dough quickly so that it does not stick to the sides of the bowl. Shortbread dough does not like long kneading. Consider this if you cook it with your hands, otherwise it will lose its crispiness.
6. Knead an elastic dough so that it does not stick to the hands and sides of the dishes. Do this with a food processor for about 2 minutes. Remove the dough from the food processor and shape it into lumps as required.
