Drizzle in 3 tbsp of ice water and stir with a fork until the dough just begins to come together; add the remaining 1 tbsp water only if the dough still looks dry and crumbly. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface, press it into a flat disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
