Dough Preparation
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour and sea salt. Add cubed butter, rubbing it into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- In a separate bowl, mix chilled water, apple cider vinegar, and egg. Make a well in the flour mixture and incorporate wet ingredients.
- Knead the dough gently until pliable, flatten into a rectangle, fold it into thirds like a letter, and refrigerate for at least one hour.
Filling Preparation
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Sauté chopped onion until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add ground chorizo and minced pork to the sautéed onion with paprika, garlic, and cayenne. Cook until meat is browned, then let cool.
Assembly and Baking
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out chilled dough and cut into pumpkin shapes.
- Decorate half of the pumpkin shapes with faces. On each plain piece, layer cheese and cooled filling, then seal with water and top with decorated pieces.
- Brush with egg wash and bake for 20-30 minutes until golden and puffed.
- Cool slightly on a wire rack before serving warm.
