And with that I'm gone.
what you mean you don't say g-oh-ne?
I asked the maid in dulcet tone
To order me a buttered scone
The silly girl has been and gone
And ordered me a buttered scone.
Pronunciation: It has to be pronounced "scon" otherwise the "what's the fastest cake in the world?" joke doesn't work.
Construction: I don't know as I've ever seen a scone with either currents or currants in it. Sultanas or raisins, maybe.
Presentation: I give you Cougar's Club Scone (patent pending). Cut in half, optionally butter both halves, jam both halves, cream both halves. Eat separately. Why? Because that way you can get at least double the amount of jam and cream compared to the classic method, without it all oozing out of the sides and all over your hands as soon as you try and bite into it.

Would be shocked if you did see one of them
or currants in it
dead flies belong in currant buns
Back to the honey being bee sick thing...
It's actually better than that, it's a group chuck-up, nosh away on matey's vom and then chuck it up again until done type scenario 🙂
"The bees work together as a group with the regurgitation and digestion until the product reaches a desired quality"
Yum!
Have the bees been studying rugby club nights out ?
molegrips is right, everybody else is wrong
sc-on
with fruit otherwise it's savoury and needs cheese.
I cannot believe that the scone-cream-jaaaaaaaam-cream-scone sandwich technique hasn't been mentioned yet!!!
I'm trying to understand why the cream/jam debate exists at all and think it's all down to what you believe the cream is for.
Either the cream is spread on like butter, then the jam goes on top. Maybe jam-scone contact is to be avoided? (Edit - like egg-beans contact, wrong)
Or you think of the cream as being a dollop on top much like you'd have with a dessert.
I'm in the first camp - Devon style!
like egg-beans contact, wrong
Now then... there is a whole new debate. Beans and scrambled egg.
cream on first. Proper clotted cream, of course. None of that Cornish muck.
+1
It appears the some of you Northern types aren't aware of the consistency of Proper Devon clotted cream. 😀
