Nigella scones








I love Nigella recipes, I love how she cook too, and her recipes normally and delicious and easy.
I have other scones recipes but I wanna try this and was really nice and how she say "nothing's better than made in home scones" and really are.

Ingredients

3 1/3 cups all purpose flour
2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon cream or tartar
2 teaspoon superfine sugar
 5 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 1/4 cups buttermilk or natural yogurt
1 egg beaten for an egg wash
1 large baking sheet
1 biscuit cutter

Method

Preheat the oven to 190°c
Line a large baking sheet  with parchment paper.

Put the floor with the baking soda, cream of tartar and sugar.
Chop the butter into pieces and drop into the flour and just mix all and then pour the buttermilk, working everything together to form a dough.
Lightly flour your work surface.

Roll out the dough gently with your hands just giving an oval or round and cut the scones with a biscuit cutter, no need to worry if they are irregular or not.
Arrangue the scones fairly close together on your baking sheet, brush with beaten egg (to give a golden top)
Bake by 15 to 18 minutes to which  time the scones will be dry and a little golden.
Remove them to a wire rack to cool and serve with jam or clotted cream (if you are from England) , I served mine was Philadelphia cheese and honey and were delicious.
make ahead note:
Scones are better on the day they are made but day old scones can be revived if you heat the oven at 170°c  for 5 to 6 minutes.

Scones de Nigella Lawson









Me encantan las recetas de Nigella Lawson, son fáciles, reales y prácticas, ademas me encanta como ella cocina.
Estos scones son diferentes a otros que hago siempre pero me encantó la textura que tienen y debe ser por el buttermilk, si no pongale yougut natural y quedan muy buenos.

3  1/3  tazas de harina
2 cucharaditas de bicarbonato
1/2 cucharadita de cremor tártaro
2 cucharaditas de azúcar
5 cucharadas de mantequilla sin sal
1 1/4 tazas de buttermilk o yogurt natural
1 huevo batido para pintar los scones
1 bandeja de horno
1 cortador de galletas

Preparación

Precalentar el hjorno a 190°c

    2. Betsy when you talk about egg and bacon I feel hungry LOL
      Is true, sometimes we make too with avocado slices and ham so good.
      Nigella said you can freeze too:)
