EMPANADA DOUGH
• ½ Cup Cold Water
• 1 Egg
• 1 Egg White
• 1 Tsp. Vinegar
• 3 Cups Flour (plus
a little more for
kneading)
• 1 Tsp. Salt
• 3 Tbsp. Shortening
QUICK EMPANADA DOUGH
• 3 Cups All
Purpose Flour
• ¼ Tsp. Salt
• 1 ½ Sticks (6-oz.)
Unsalted Butter, cold
and cut into 12 pieces
• 1 Egg
• 4-5 Tbsp. Water
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 shortening 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. (Freeze dough for later use.)
