I’m going to share mha secret scone recipe on this wax cylinder furlie for aw youz in the future. Whit can ah say, ahm a techie. Ah hope ye enjoy mha soond effects.

“Sift 32oz, o yer flour intae a bowl. Add a wee bit o baking powder if yer no usin self-raising flour.

Get yer hauns mucked intae the rubbing o three an a half ounces o butter into yer flour. Dinni melt it, in fact if yer pantry’s cauld enough tae grate it so much the better.

Rub the butter into the flour wi yer fingertips, and keep feeling around for onie lumps (in the mixture). It should end up a bittie like breadcrumbs.

Ye can add fancies if ye like sic as sultanas, cherries or grated cheese but no aw thegither.

When addin milk, some folk uses a knife, but I uses a fork. Tip it in and then tak the fork and sort o mangle it up tae try and pu it thegither. It hisnae tae be too wet or dry. Ye’ll hae tae learn hoo much.

If yer useless wi the fork try your hauns in the bowl too, jist your fingertips tho, tae work some of the loose bits into the dough. Or get a bairn tae dae it for ye. That’s aye a good wheeze.

If yer nae yis an it’s awfie sticky, then add a wee bittie mair flour bit by bit, or if it’s too dry add wee bits o milk til ye get it right.

Ye can work the dough a little more on a floured table, but dinni oerdo it! Fingers only and if yiv got sausage fingers – get the bairn again.

Ye can jist cut the dough intae squares or triangles or use the rim o a glass, emptied o whisky, dipped in flour tae cut oot roond yins. Tattie scones are traditionally triangular.

If yiv made cheese scones ye can tap them wi a bittie cheese afore bakin.

Brush the taps wi some milk and bake them in the oven wi the fire banked up for ten minutes.

I soonded oot mha spirit guide on onie additional info youz in the future micht need. She telt me tae say that mha banked up fire equates to aboot 200℃  fur a fan oven (whitever that is) for the same ten minutes. Itherwise we’re cool.

Ye’ll get tae ken yer oven, as my ain Granny uised tae say.
