Instructions

  1. Finely chop or puree the butter with the dates and the lemon zest in a food processor with a cleaver. Then add the egg and mash for a few more minutes. Now add the flour little by little (e.g. individual tablespoons full) and, in between, always stir or knead the mixture well with the machine. Put the dough in a freezer bag and press flat and smooth. Then let the dough rest in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
