It has a zest that is stimulating to manly appetites, and a substance that gives them the very important feeling of having had just the right finish to a meal.

Moisten dough with ice water, drop by drop, using as little as possible Place on floured board. Pat light ly. Roll out. Dot with remaining butter. Fold over. Roll again.
