Yea i was just thinking about it. If we use baking soda, there must be some sort of acid to neutralise it so that the scone won't turn out bitter and the reaction creates CO2 gas to expand the scones.
I didn't read this comment and added baking soda. It was so bitter. What a waste. Indeed I was thinking why baking soda when there is hardly any acid. OP could have edited the vid and save me the heartache.
I doubled the amount of all ingredients for a bigger batch. The result was pretty good. I adjusted the oven to 400 for the last 2 minutes to get the tops more golden in color. Thanks for the recipe!
I subscribed immediately. Your technique is perfection. The cutting, layering, and stacking is the absolute perfect way to handle doughs like this. People always look at me like I have three heads when I try to explain to them how I got that texture in a baked good. Now I can just forward them your video. Beautifully done and concise video. Thank you. A heads up for everybody. Do not fold the Dough. Do cut it and stack it just like they showed you.
Update: I’ve tried these today and they are truly delicious! They pair wonderfully with clotted cream and jam as you’ve demonstrated. I’m very happy I tried this and will definitely be making them again. Thank you so much!
I have just made these. They are not like "real scones". But one thing I can say, is that they are melt-in-the mouth delicious! I made them too thin. Next time, I will double the volume of ingredients and make them nice and thick. Yes, I will make them again, that is how good they taste (plain, no vanilla essence, with salted butter spread on it). Thank you !
Im more and more convinced that these English Scone recipes with little Baking Powder and not too much liquid (drier dough) is what differentiates the scone from the USA biscuit. Cake flour is also important. I leave my cut out scones in the fridge on their baking tray for 30-45 minutes before putting in a slightly hotter oven 9for the rise) than what you recommend. Love the stacking technique.
Thank you for writing the complete recipe below we appreciate it very much - it makes it more easier to access the recipe otherwise it is sometimes difficult to convert recipes that are not in the USA ratio standard and we end up not interested anymore. We hope you understand 🙏
Lovely to look at and delicious to eat! I will go to my kitchen now and prepare these delicious scones.... the Queen of England had these every afternoon tea - ❤time....
All of your recipes are special....! I love this batter! I will bake a birthday cake next week! Thank you so much ! Where can I buy your recipe books !❤
When you push in the cutter, don't twist it. Vertically down, cut the dough and lift it. Twisting it seals the side and may prevent your scones from rising nicely. I make scones too but I like to cut them random shapes.
@@mch4735 1 3/4 cup all purpose flour. One fifth of a block of 250gm butter which eqs to 50gm. About 1/2 Cup raisins if you want to make fruit scone. 1 tbsp sugar 1 1/2 tbsp baking powder ( if you are using all purpose flour) or 1/2 tbsp if you are using self rising flour. approx 150ml milk which is alittle more than 1/2 cup...sometime a little more depends on the flour (I usually use a dash more than 150ml). If raisin scones, I like to add 1/2 to 2/3 tsp cinnamon powder. I use the above proportion for plain scones too but reduce baking powder. For plain scones, I omit cinnamon powder but add vanilla essence. If you like a richer scone, you may add an egg but cut down on milk . Egg plus milk eq to 150ml approx. I prefer mine the British way. Americans like to add egg, turns out cakey...
@@mch4735 take care not to overwork the dough otherwise the gluten will form and your scone will not be fluffy. I like the video's method of cutting the dough and stacking it up. I normally just fold it 3 to 4 times. Take note, she uses cake flour I believe, whereas I use AP flour. Take note, after adding in the liquid, you got to work fast otherwise gluten will form. Cake flour has a lower gluten percentage.
@@mch4735 ok. Then you need to know the following, before you begin, heat oven at 200C. I use a milk wash or you may use an egg wash. Milk wash was fine for me. Finally bake your scone at 200C for 10 to12 minutes middle rack. Depends if you like your scone with a crust or softer , higher temperature shorter time or lower temperature longer time will give you slightly different results.
When baking things like this, I always stir the dry ingredients together and stir the wet ingredients together. This way, everything mixes better and easier. Add all dry ingredients and mix. Add chunks of butter and mix. Mix milk, yogurt and egg yolk together. Add to dry/butter mix and stir. Fruit definitely goes in with dry ingredients. Having a little cover of the dry ingredients helps keep the fruit evenly mix so it doesn't stick to each other.
They look delicious- cutting and placing on top in layers must be the secret of the lightest looking scones I’ve ever seen - thank you, I’m going to try to replicate 👏
excellent recipe..but one small adjustment i'd make..avoid twisting the cutter before pulling it back up, then you will avoid getting the cracking , 'waist' halfway down the scone as it cooks. If the cutter is floured you can just push it down and pull it straight out easily.
6 grams equals 2.69 teaspoons of bicarb please take note your scone recipe is divine never eaten such moist and fluffy before. Thanks for sharing lot of love June
Update: I tried this an found it's a wonderful recipe, but in my opinion, a little bit of salt is missing. However, one of the best scone recipes. 😋 The bests scones I've ever tasted, I ate them at the British Embassy in Buenos Aires. I'll try this recipe and tell you later. Thanks for the recipe and for the video, I've learned a pair of things really important. 💗
In the UK we always use soured Milk (milk that has turned, gone off... in a curdly manner ! Or add a few drops of lemon juice, to make it curdle !) Agree NO Yogurt in Scones. 😖
Twisting the cutter results in lopsided scones. To loosen each scone as it's cut, move the cutter slightly sideways on the counter. Cut them all, then lift off the trimmings before picking up the scones.
These look lovely. I like your process; for someone like myself, 75 with arthritis, your method is much easier than having to do a lot of kneading. I want to make your recipe. I also have a recipe for corn meal scones with dried, tart cherries. Could I use your folding method for corn meal scones? Thank you for this video!
A pastry cutter does a much better job than using the fingers to cut butter into the flour and it won't melt as much either. I love my pastry cutter and it does a most wonderful job.
Wow, beautiful. I made an almost identical recipe from the _Mandy Lee_ channel. The videography on your video is stunning and the scones look mouthwateringly good. I’d recommend Mandy’s video to supplement this one because it explains the reasons behind many of the choices and pitfalls when making scones.
Look scrumptious! Definitely going to try these but with some plant-based milk and butter and Just Egg as I have a family history of Cancer and need to avoid the estrogen in dairy and Choline in eggs--thanks for posting
Really interesting to watch someone else make scones! Very different to my recipe - cold butter, no egg, minimal handling and fruit goes in with dried ingredients.
This looks perfect. I have all the ingredients at home, expect cake flour (I will try it with all purpose flour), and since scones are a staple in my country (they are salty instead of sweet though) I'm curious about this version.
Dough ends up a very rich looking colour, more yellow than usual. I personally prefer more fruit in my fruited scones and always add some vanilla essence. Was a pleasure to watch and inspiring. I expect by layering it imparts some extra air like you do with flaky pastry.
Scones don't have Vanilla Essence in them ! Not English ones... unless it's a USA thing... always adding Vanilla Essence. Yuck! .... Keep it for Cakes !
I did not see any mention of salt. I have never seen a recipe that didn't include salt which usually interacts with the baking soda or baking powder. Did I miss something?
1/ Do u mix 1 egg AND 1 egg yolk into the mixture? Video did not show the 1 egg yolk. 2/ Another egg yolk is used separately for egg wash at the end. Am I right in the above?
They're not fluffy at all. Quite dense, although they did rise. They do need jam and butter because they are a bit dry without. I'm used to making scones with cream.
I used this recipe including the correct baking powder. They were really good except they did not rise anywhere near as far as in the video. Baking powder and baking soda were both fresh. There needs to be more fruit in them also. The only other comment is the small quantity of ingredients yields too little dough to warrant the effort. I will try once more and double the amounts.
200g cake floor 50g unsalted butter 30g sugar 20g baking powder 1 egg yolk 10g yoghurt 20g Milk 20g Raising Follow the instructions and you should have a perfect biscuit or Q.Scorn
Why do bakers seem to always apply cookie/biscuit cutters inside the edge of the dough instead of at its edge. I always apply the cutter at the circular edge to maximize the number of items first.
Will this recipe work with whole flour and is the flour plain or self-raising? I am assuming plain flour because the 6g baking powder is added. I realise using Wholemeal or even half and half the scones will not be so soft and delicate. However, will they rise even half the amount shown in video?
I'm surprised they rose with all that mashing and working the raisins in that way! Also, the twisting of the cutter causes them to rise unevenly and split apart.
The sour of the yogurt make as bsking powder. They are my favorites when I was in England. .in canada they made to big.from Peru my grandgrand mother was English

Thanks. But isn’t the baking soda works better with milk and yogurt?
Yea i was just thinking about it. If we use baking soda, there must be some sort of acid to neutralise it so that the scone won't turn out bitter and the reaction creates CO2 gas to expand the scones.
@@andrewwong798don't use bicarb for scones, only baking powder
I tought so because baking soda is much bitter

This is Amazing! These scones are the best things that I baked in such a long time! 😭
Easy to follow step instructions. I plan to try this informative recipe soon and thank you so very much for a well planned video.

That’s just biscuits with raisins my mother used to make this all the time but great job👍👌✌️
6 grams equals 2.69 teaspoons of bicarb please take note your scone recipe is divine never eaten such moist and fluffy before. Thanks for sharing lot of love June
Bicarbonate is baking soda. This calls for baking powder. If you’re going to use baking soda you need to add an acid, such as cream of tartar.
A perfect little piece of home art.
Very cozy and soothing.
Thank you.

学作过两次了是儿子叫我做的没想到那么简单很好吃只是中间我没有放果酱而已👍我没有用葡萄干我换去蔓越莓干把它切小粒一点也是一样很好吃👍谢谢老师分享的食谱🙏
Made some today and they were very delicious! I omitted yoghurt as I didn’t have any
In the UK we always use soured Milk (milk that has turned, gone off... in a curdly manner ! Or add a few drops of lemon juice, to make it curdle !)

What a good idea to cut and stack the scone mixture to stop it being overworked.

Looks nice golden brown, end delicious.

Or just 1 egg York?

Cream first on both halves, then jam and you don’t sandwich them together. West Country (UK) maid here!

I'm surprised they rose with all that mashing and working the raisins in that way! Also, the twisting of the cutter causes them to rise unevenly and split apart.
didnt though.
And if you have them just touching each other they will rise straight up and not lean over
Where can we find the recipe? It doesn’t say ow many egg yolks or how much Baking soda there is . Is there any sugar atall?
