4 cups flour
Sift the flour and sugar. Add the remaining ingredients, and work together to form a smooth dough.
Roll out and fold over, so that the dough is four layers thick. Rest for 20 minutes in a cold place. Repeat the process twice more.
Then roll out the pastry to a thickness of just under 1/4", and score the surface. Cut into rounds.
Place these on a floured baking pan, brush with beaten egg, and bake in a preheated medium oven for 30 to 40 minutes until golden.
