Method

1. Place the flour, salt and pepper in a large bowl.

2. Add in the diced butter and rub in with your fingertips until the butter is absorbed and the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.

3. Add in the dill seeds and mix well.

4. Gradually, add in just enough chilled water to form a soft pliable dough, mixing well as you add it in.

5. Wrap the dough in cling film and chill for at least 30 minutes.
