Btw, sorry for the terrible quality picture.
The texture of the scones were amazing. My grandma and dad loved these scones. They said it tasted much better than the scones I made before. The brown sugar gives these scones a surprisingly nice grainy texture between bites. Grainy might be a negative connotation when it comes to food, but it was perfect for these scones. What I mean is that you can still kind taste the brown sugar, it just adds to the already good scone. Also, right from the oven these scones were really nice and fluffy you could say. I gave some to my friend C. and her mom said that they tasted better than the bakery's scones. So thanks to Anna from Cookie Madness for this recipe.
Different lighting makes a big difference. And oh no, I think I might have broken the camera. That or it just broke suddenly. The zoom lens won't retract back in. :(
I made that awesome bread again!
This time I tried it with 3 fillings. Pork floss, turkey and swiss and coconut and raisin.
Update about school:
Wow, school is so busy already, at least it is for AP calc. There is so much hw for Calculus it's scary. Or more specifically, so much time spent doing the hw. English, a class I thought to be easy, is actually harder than I thought. The teacher is new and she's giving a lot of hw. Oh well, I'll survive. Now, there isn't a lot of weekend hw, but there is still a good amount. Spanish is taking me longer to finish than usual, as expected from an AP class. I already can't wait for the summer to come, haha. I get to go to Taiwan then as a graduation present and visit my grandparents and a few cousins there.
haha.....Did you end up fixing the camera??
ReplyDeleteI've never made scones before...but this looks really yummy! My family doesn't really like scones...
hehe...I'm sorta like you right now. Only I don't actually get homework, but I really should study because the exams are sort of close....And I can't wait til it's all over- I get to go to HK when I finish =) And visit relatives too =D
yum! i love scones too! adding sour cream into bakes gives it the best fluffy texture ever :D scones are best homemade, eaten hot and on the same day of baking haha :) hope everything goes well at school and hope your camera is fixed :D
ReplyDeleteI'll definitely try brown sugar next time I make sweet scones!
ReplyDeleteHi Von, Sadly no. :( I guess I will have to buy a new one. Thanks. :) You should try making scones one day, even though they have a high fat content. I guess what you can do is make the scones and give some away so that way you won't be the only person eating them, if you even like them...
ReplyDeleteCool! Good luck on your exams, I hope you do well.
Hi Grub, thanks for your well wishes! I never knew what the sour cream does, but now I do. Thanks for the info. :)
Hi Mylifeinscones, I just checked out your blog and, wow, so many scones! Very cool.
Love scones for tea.
ReplyDeleteWe can imagine the taste from the recipe anyway.
Btw, reading your post about hw of Calculus, scary to me too~ :P
All the best to your school work.
Haven't had scones in awhile! I know what you mean by slightly grainy, very rustic!
ReplyDeleteDid you know that you can use the scone mix to make pizza? It's called Scone-Based Pizza and it's quicker than making a bread based pizza. Just don't add any sugar to your scone mix.
ReplyDeleteHi Christine, hmmm I have never tried them with tea, but I will one day. :) Thank you. Luckily, calc is getting easier...at least for now.
ReplyDeleteHi pigpigscorner, Nice, I never would have thought of the word to describe them. "New" word in my vocab list.
Hi PlumLeaf, Whoa, I never knew that. Very interesting. The only negative would be extra fat to an already fatty cheese pizza, but very cool nonetheless.
