    When did scones get kneaded so much?

    • @eatthistoday
      @eatthistoday  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      That's a great question! Scones are typically a light and airy treat that don't require a lot of kneading. In this recipe, the butter is rubbed with the flour and sugar to create a flaky texture. Then gently add liquid to avoid developing too much gluten, which can make the scones tough. The dough is gently pushed together and scones are cut. Keep ingredient as cold as possible.😊😋

    • @eatthistoday
      @eatthistoday  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      That's a great point! While scones and biscuits share some similarities, there are a few key differences. Scones are typically lighter and flakier, often made with butter or shortening, and served with clotted cream and jam. Biscuits tend to be denser and more crumbly, often made with shortening or lard, and served with gravy or butter. Both are delicious in their own way!😋

      Reason why no salt required - self-raising flour already has salt - I would add it if you make your own self-raising flour
