More patisserie

Just a week since our last cheese scones, we were at it again today because my bread failed to rise fast enough for consumption at 1800, being rather fresh out of the oven at that point. So we leveraged the fact that the oven was already hot and popped the scones in. Scones being very quick and intended to be eaten more or less straight out of the oven.

The big difference was that on this occasion, the first time that I think such a thing has happened, at least for a very long time, was that they were cooked by BH. The difference arising from the fact that cheese scones regularly featured in my childhood teas, quite often made by me, BH's family was more cake orientated and did not make scones at all, cheese or otherwise. So BH is more a cake person.

Notwithstanding, she did very well. I don't think one could have told the difference from mine in a blind test. Just one left for grazing later on. But no Calvados on this occasion - this last perhaps not being a thing to make a habit of.

Furthermore, a quick peek at psmv3 reveals that, actually, BH made cheese scones in November 2016. Scarcely a very long time ago. Memory fails yet again.

Memory also claims that we have been given fresh cheese scones in tea shop just the once. Perhaps I will be able to track this rare event down a bit later.
