Pulse 4 to 5 times, about 2 seconds each time, or until crumbly. With processor running,
add buttermilk through small feed tube. Process until stiff dough forms, about 30 seconds,
scraping sides of bowl if necessary.
In small bowl, combine egg and water. Set aside.
Remove dough to lightly floured work surface. Form into a ball; divide into 4 portions.
