EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Check scones for doneness at the minimum baking time. They're perfectly done when the top and bottom crusts are an even golden brown.

To toast nuts, cook them in an ungreased heavy skillet over medium-low heat 5 to 7 minutes, stirring frequently until browning begins, then stirring constantly until nuts are golden brown and you can smell the toasted aroma.

The lemon gives these regulars a good taste that is un-expected at first, until you are told they are supposed to have the lemone in them. We enjoyed them warm with some butter, but they also were great with whipped butter that has a bit of honey added to it!
