1. In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, sugar, and a pinch of salt. Mix well. 2. Work the butter or lard into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. 3. Gradually add the egg whites and mix until a dough forms. If using, incorporate the liquor or white wine for flavor. 4. Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth.
