Preheat your oven to the temperature specified for your recipe if you are baking immediately.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt. Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
Pour the melted unsalted butter over the dry ingredients. Using a fork or spatula, mix until the mixture forms a crumbly texture and begins to come together.
Add the cold water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing after each addition. The dough should be slightly moist but not sticky, and it should hold together when pressed.
Transfer the dough directly to your pie dish or tart pan. Use your fingers to press the dough evenly across the bottom and up the sides of the dish.
If the recipe calls for a pre-baked crust, prick the bottom of the dough all over with a fork to prevent puffing during baking. Bake according to your recipe's instructions or until the crust is golden brown.
Let the pastry crust cool before adding your desired filling if required. Enjoy!
