  • Preparation: 45 min
  • Cooking: 30 min
  • Makes: 1 serving (61.1 g)
  • Difficulty: Medium
  • Contains: dairy, egg, gluten, pork

Ingredients

  • 30 g Flour, all-purpose
  • 10 g Pork cracklings (greubons)
  • 6 g Butter, unsalted
  • 12 g Milk, whole
  • 0.1 g Black pepper
  • 3 g Egg yolk (for brushing)

Method

  1. Chop the greubons (pork cracklings) finely, picking out any hard pieces.
  2. Rub the cold butter into the flour with your fingertips until it looks like fine crumbs, then mix in the greubons and the pepper. The cracklings bring the salt.
  3. Add the cold milk and bring it together quickly into a dough without kneading it. Wrap and chill for 30 minutes.
  4. Heat the oven to 200 °C. On a floured surface roll the dough into a rectangle about 1.5 cm thick and lift it onto a tray lined with baking paper.
  5. With the tip of a knife, score a diamond lattice over the top without cutting through, then brush it with the egg yolk beaten with a few drops of milk.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown and crisp at the edges. Cut into rectangles and eat warm or cold, as an aperitif snack.
