Step 1: Make the Tart Crust
In a bowl, mix flour, sugar, and salt. Add cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or fingertips to combine until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Add the egg yolk and 2 tablespoons of cold water. Mix

gently, adding more water as needed, until the dough comes together.
Form the dough into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface to fit a 9-inch tart pan. Press the dough into the pan and trim the edges.
Prick the base with a fork and chill for another 15 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line the tart crust with parchment paper, fill with pie weights or dried beans, and bake for 15 minutes.
