Inspired by conversations on the FOOD52 Hotline, we're sharing tips and tricks that make navigating all of our kitchens easier and more fun. Today, Amanda shows us a neat pastry trick with butter.

Watch Amanda revolutionize the way you work butter into your dry ingredients, and then make the perfect puff pastry with confidence.
