Scottish Shortbread

[@maryavatar]

I’m Scottish, and I can confirm this is the recipe I was taught in the 1970s. It also used to be called 2-4-6 shortbread, 2oz sugar, 4oz butter and 6oz flour.

[@MrPaulsPantry]

That's exactly right, In the bakery business we called it the 1,2,3, formula. Back then we used the old pounds and ounces and our recipe was 1lb sugar, 2lb butter and 3lb flour.

It's nice to see someone using only three ingredients when making their shortbread. I'm a 76 year old Scottish woman now living in NZ. My father was a master baker in Scotland when I was at school & he too only used three ingredients, though the quantity & method was slightly different to yours. 8 oz flour, 4 oz butter, 2 oz granulated sugar. put all ingredients into a bowl & rub together until you have a fine breadcrumb texture. Knead mixture until you get a dough. I have the wooden mold he had in the 1940s & still use it. I can get two cakes of shortbread with the quantity of ingredients above. The most difficult part I find is getting the dough out of the mold keeping the fluting intact. I give the wooden mold a very light dusting of corn flour to achieve this. You have to hit the mold on its side until the dough separates & then is placed on a baking tray, two to a tray. I fire the shortbread in the oven for approx 1tray 320'F for 30 -40 mins depending on your oven. The texture is very different to what you buy in the shops. I personally don't like that shortbread, It's too much like a biscuit. When dividing a cake of shortbread, it should never be cut but scored with a knife into wedges & then broken apart. Writing this, I'm realising now how I miss all the wonderful baking he did at home even after he left the bakery. I wish I had more attention & learned more of his recipes. Sorry to have rambled here. just had a wee stroll down memory lane. 😊😀

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Hi Elizabeth, thanks commenting, but I even get people from Scotland telling I've got it wrong, it should have cornflour in and it should ground rice in and it would be better with some vanilla in. I would like to bet these people have never baked a shortbread in their lives.

[@lisacunningham8687]

@@MrPaulsPantry They are the ones that are wrong. There are only three ingredients in Shortbread. Flour, butter & sugar. My father was a master baker & he worked with the Buckhaven co-op in Fife Scotland before the war & went back when the war was over. I have put his recipe above. With extra ingredients you don't have true shortbread but merely biscuits manufactured for the masses. I would never buy shortbread out of a shop. I tasted one once that came from a tartan tin "won't say the name" It was an insult to my palate having grown up with the real deal.

Hi Mr. Paul! First off, I cannot thank you enough for posting this recipe. Several years ago, I had to give up eating shortbreads (my favorite cookie!) because the best are usually made with dairy product ( I had to switch to plant-based eating for health reasons). So after many years of forfeiting shortbread… I’ve been on the hunt for an authentic dairy-free shortbread recipe and none of them tasted perfect, until I found your video! I ended up substituting the butter for plant-based vegan butter and it tastes PERFECT! Just like the real butter version. Everything else, I kept exactly the same as your recipe. Now I make them as often as possible! And Every time I make them, I can’t help but think about you and hope you are having a nice day. Again, thank you so much for doing this video for us! Joshua PS - I’m a Christian and know that the Lord Jesus loves you. Make sure you take time to get to know Him in your life and read His Word often too!

Thank you Sarah.

I made half a batch yesterday (I needed a little bit more butter to get it to the paste in your video) and they came out tasting amazing and enjoyed by the whole family. Thank you!

[@MrPaulsPantry]

Wonderful! But if you keep working the dough the heat from your hands will soften the butter and it will go together OK. Visit my Website mr-pauls-pantry.com/ For more recipes. Stay safe and keep cooking.

Mary. 90 years old favorite cookies. We used to be able to buy Walkers at our grocery. But not for a year. Mine are terrible. But I'm going to try it this way.

I had never tried biscuits like these until a visit to England. They were so delicious and different from anything we eat in the states. This recipe is simple, quick, delicious, and authentic (not that I’m an authority, but they taste like the ones I had from England). They go great with tea or dare I say, coffee.

Hello Bunny, nice to hear from another satisfied viewer. I'm so please you tried my recipe and method, it's always good to know how it turned out for other people. In fact, your comment has just pushed me into baking some shortbread myself, as it's a while since I had any. Thanks.

Thank you! My grandmother made her shortbread without a recipe, so I was looking for a good one! Best shortbread I ever made - I particularly liked your mixing technique! I added chopped walnuts and put a bit of jam in the dimple. Was I ever happy!

[@MaZEEZaM]

That reminds me of the jam filled biscuits my mum used to make, I think they were called Jammy dodgers, I loved them. EDIT, I was right, here’s a link if you are interested kzbin.info/www/bejne/oYWraIJohM-Dic0

[@Alexis84DE]

As a variation on a theme I made the millionaires shortbread from your website today. Yummy 😋 I would like to make an adult version with maybe Cointreau or Grand Manier in the caramel. When would you recommend to add the liqueur, at the beginning with the condensed milk (will the alcohol cook out too much) or at the end (will it crystallize the caramel)? Your expert tip would be much appreciated. Thanks and stay safe, greetings from Germany

[@MrPaulsPantry]

@@Alexis84DE You can add alcohol to caramel but there are two things to remember. If you add the alcohol after the caramel has been cooling a while the crystallisation has already taken place so the alcohol won't affect it. However, it does tend to thin the caramel slightly so I cook the caramel a little longer to compensate for this. Hope this helps.

[@escott5839]

Thank you, Paul. This recipe is absolutely fabulous, and my first time yielded shortbread as good as Walkers. Wishing you and your family the best of the season and a peaceful, super 2024.
