@Darren McGrady irish mashed potatoes without using cream please. My method is boiling the potatoes on way too high a heat usually electric five to start once the water turns starchy normally twelve to fourteen minutes and drain the potatoes and then refill with tepid water salted with pink himalayan salt or irish sea salt return to the boil and boil for six mins once potatoes are softening reduce heat to about mark three for a further ten to twelve mins and again drain now reduce once again to mark one and place a tea towel over the saucepan with the lid on a tilt once fairly well steamed then add butter and milk and mash until fluffy with few if any hard lumpiness left and serve

I work at a tearoom here in the US and I love comparing our scone recipe to others. Most American scone recipes are frustratingly involved and p different from ours. This recipe is so similar to the one we use at work! Getting to eat "authentic" English scones when I toured there was so cool for me, though the fact that so many had black pepper on them was gross. Can't believe the Queen is a jam first person, what is she thinking? You have to put the cream on first or else it just slides around on the jam and doesn't stick

Yeah, Americans make huge, cakelike triangular scones with drizzles of icing on them, presumably to differentiate them from Southern "biscuits." And definitely cream first. It sticks to the scone better, and you can push a divot into it with the back of your spoon to hold even more jam.

@InnuendoXP4 жыл бұрын
Scones don't even usually have egg, usually it's just a brush of milk over the top. I think some American biscuits are done to be flaky through rough lamination by treating the butter a bit differently the hydration level is slightly different too, and like you said, acid with the buttermilk. But I've seen some things Americans call scones which are these weird things with dried fruit & things mixed through & cut into triangles, look more like rock cakes than scones.
@wholeNwon4 жыл бұрын
@@InnuendoXP Exactly. Unfortunately I, too, have had those dried fruit things...really horrible. As I recall from my youth, for the layered result or at least for the flakeyness, the butter must be cold, cut into the flower and handled very little. Best to use the biscuit cutter with the dough on a cold surface in the summer. I don't remember sugar. Baking powder, yes; or, buttermilk with a little baking soda instead. These look much better than other "scones" I've had.

In Canada they are called both sometimes But there's a difference in how they are cut/shaped when giving them either name..scones are normally cut into the shape of a triangle and tea biscuits are Always round...and yes there's also the difference in sweetness, depending on your own preferences... It's all good though, and very tasty either way, either name.

It's like that in most commonwealth countries. I'm from New Zealand but live in Australia and its like that in both countries.

@@triciabarr4620 that's the same here in America, scones are completely different than biscuits. I don't know how old this person is, because this individual doesn't seem very experienced when it comes to food but scones and biscuits are absolutely two different things in the states. We do not call biscuits scones, whatsoever. They are two different things, like you said in your comment.

no we don't. We call biscuits biscuits in America, and we call scones scones. Just because you don't know the difference doesn't mean spreading misinformation is necessarily a good thing dear🙏 just a heads up.

Hey there can you please give us the measurements in grams? Where I live we measure things by weight :).

I always expect her majesty to come around the corner looking for a snacky. I loved your tribute for Prince Phillip he would definitely be there looking for a bit to taste test. Thank you so much for you videos they are a treat to watch.

I’m from the USA, what’s clotted cream?
@shelby47714 жыл бұрын
It's sort of like whipped cream but a lot heavier (lighter than cream cheese). So delicious. I'm not from the UK though, only been there twice but I miss clotted cream when I leave!

I for one appreciate that it is not in grams or weighted measurements. Imperial works for me - most measuring cups and spoons have dual measurements on them.

What a coincidence finding this channel on Prince Philip's funeral day while looking up scone recipes... You now have a new subscriber Sir as I enjoy the way you teach all the while adding anecdotes of your years as a royal chef.

the thing that i like about you, Is even after so many years you can see the passion and the fact many chef's who havent done nearly as much to brag with are more big headed and ego-tistical where as you worked for the royal family and still seem amazed and humble about the fact you even did it. Keep up the great work and stay safe.
