July 10, 2007: Parmesan In Addition To Rosemary Scones

rosemary together with cheese scones (themselves inspired yesteryear Lily's Scones) together with a few personal tweaks of convenience. I'm non the most expert at combining, kneading together with rolling inward the brief together with gentle means that yields a light, fluffy scone. Even so, an oven-warm (or lightly microwaved) specimen spread alongside butter has been a wonderful thing. These scones would indeed hold out a lovely companion to a bowl of tomato plant soup, if I hadn't relied on the canned multifariousness on this time-poor weeknight. So it was a repast that offered unopen to contentment for the present, together with anticipation of unopen to much amend hereafter dinners when my scone-kneading together with soup-making skills convey improved.

Parmesan together with rosemary scones

500g evidently flour
1 teaspoon salt

5-6 teaspoons baking pulverization (not really precise, I know, but I was finishing off a jar)

75g mutual depression temperature butter, diced
75g parmesan cheese, grated

2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, finely chopped (this is fairly subtle, yous could increase it upwards to a tablespoon if yous honey rosemary)

300mL milk
extra milk

Preheat the oven to 220 degrees C together with grease a baking tray.

Sift the flour, common salt together with baking pulverization into a large bowl. Rub inward the butter until it's evenly distributed. (Damn, I loathe this step. Might cheat together with campaign the nutrient processor side yesteryear side time.) Stir inward the grated cheese together with rosemary. Add the milk together with stir entirely until merely combined to course of written report a dough.

Lightly flour a travel surface together with briefly knead the dough. Roll it out to 3cm thick. Dip a circular cutter (I purpose a drinking glass) inward flour together with cutting out scones, placing them on the baking tray. Re-roll the final scraps of dough to brand a dyad more. You should convey most a dozen scones, although I had most seven monster-scones instead. Brush the tops of the scones alongside milk together with bake for most 10 minutes, or they rising together with plow golden.
