    Starting a new job I was introduced to this mature wrinkly faced lady upon which she said.I know your mum and dad. Never seen this lady before ever I was worried. Turns out she did, big time. Mary came from the island of Barra. Mary taught her way of making traditional short bread. In our place of work we had a good working team. Only issue ever was the short bread and who made the best.
    Mary was number one. I was taught by the best. Recipes differ from area to place but one consistent method is to make sure your sugar is fully melted in to the butter before you go any further.

    I am Scots and I have never in all my years seen anyone just put the unformed granules in the mold like that. You make a dough (use cold hands, don't overhandle, only until its smooth) and then press into the mold and pierce the back with a fork (so steam doesn't make it wet). I preheat my mold a bit so I get a good impression. and I don't cook it for 1 hour do 30 mins and check on it, you don't want too much brown on it. Also shortbread petticoat tails are not traditionally cut, you should rest it 10 mins demold then score it about a third of the way through, dredge fine sugar over the top (while its warm so the sugar will stick better) and then leave it to cool outside of the oven on a cooling rack so it doesn't stay wet. Then it is broken or snapped when ready to serve or eat. That way you get the crumbly edge. If you cut it you seal the edges and lose the crumb and that is not as nice. You can also mold it in a wood mold or any mold to get the impression and just cook it moldless. Brown bag molds makes the ceramic shortbread mold and you can buy the thistle one quite easily for those looking. Wooden ones and silicone can be had from various places 9just to mold not to cook). also rice flour, semolina flour, corn flour can all be used interchangeably to make the shortbread more crumbly. Or you can just use the traditional plain flour, butter and sugar.

      I'm guessing to let it cool completely first before you flip it. (That which she does not say) Flipping while still hot in that mold will cause it to crumble.....or so it seems to me.

    Great flavour but mine came out rock hard when I followed instructions exactly and baked in mold. Looks beautiful too btw, but need to soak each piece in tea, coffee, milk etc. to be able to break pieces off. I did second round but did not dry it in the cooling oven, same result. Too bad as it has such promise but I'd probably try baking maybe 40 minutes at 300 and see if that works. Gorgeous flavour though.
