Step 1
Combine flour and salt in a large bowl. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Mix in water, a tablespoon at a time, until dough comes together. Shape into a disc, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.
Step 2
Roll dough out to a 12-inch circle on a lightly floured surface. Carefully place crust in a 9-inch pie dish. Press dough evenly into the bottom and sides. Trim excess dough and flute edges. Bake or fill crust as desired.
