Homemade scones

I’ve tried many scones in Taipei and non are like homemade, to much baking soda that leaves horrible aftertaste.
I made these big rustic fruit scones today, not done since in U.K. 6 months ago, cake and premium flour mix PX Mart :+1: baking powder could be stronger and “don’t “ buy these raisins, so many hard bits of stalk in them and not very sweet.



And tin keeps falling over :grinning:

This baking supply store is pretty decent - many different types of flour and tins of baking powder that are probably better (whatever that means) than the sachets you get in PX Mart. They have raisins too, IIRC.

My plan for weekend markets is barbecue Tandoori chicken burgers.

Could sell scone alongside? With my homemade jam and extra thick creamy Greek yogurt?

How come a breakfast in Dublin has a hash brown? Same in the U.K. get hash browns with café breakfast.
I don’t want a mercan brekkie I want potato cakes, bubble an squeak or chips!

Well simple “Brekkie” so its not what Irish Breakfast has come to!

How do you get them so floofy? Just lots of baking powder, or is there some knack to it?
