Make of 400 gr of the butter on plastic foil a square slice of approximately 20 x 20 cm and place the slice 15 minutes in the fridge.
Sift flour and add water, salt and the last 100 gr, in small pieces sliced, butter. Knead to a smooth dough. Let rest 5 minutes in the fridge.
Roll the dough to a slice of 30 x 30 cm and place the slice butter on the dough.
Fold the dough completely over the butter.
* Roll the slice, on a flour dusted working surface,
to a sheet of 8 mm thick and 3 times as long as it is wide. Fold 1/3 of the sheet in and cover with the other 1/3 (there must be 3 layers now).
Turn the slice a quarter and roll again to 8 mm thick, fold again.
Take care that the slice doesn't stick to the working surface (dust flour when it happens). Place the folded dough for at least 30 minutes in the fridge.*
Repeat the procedure between * * another two times.
The dough can be frozen or used immediately.
