hey friends, i now also have a full collection of the granada holmes episodes on my resources page. they’re 44gb worth of 1080p .mkv files, english subtitles included. [pw in the tags]

I got to try it

Scones

this is the recipe that I make most often! it’s from martha stewart’s cookbook because she is a freaking cooking genius and I aspire to be like her one day

ingredients:

- four cups (480 grams) flour

- one cup (225 grams) cold butter

- one and a fourth cup (250 ml) milk

- two tablespoons sugar + (optionally) extra for sprinkling

- packet of backing powder (or one-two tablespoons)

- one teaspoon salt

- egg (optional)

steps:

1) preheat your oven to 180 degrees celsius and assemble your ingredients

2) in a mixing bowl, add the flour, salt, baking powder and sugar (you can sift the ingredients if you like but it’s optional!) and mix

3) add cubes of cold butter into the flour mixture—cold butter, not melted or it won’t work—and break up the butter until the mixture resembles coarse meal (it should look a bit like sand)

4) add in the milk—this is quite a dry dough, so don’t add too much!

5) this step is optional, but you can add in dried cranberries, apricots, blueberries—or go down the sweet road and pour in chocolate chips. or just keep the scones plain, this part really depends on your taste palate

6) use some kind of circular thing to cut out the scones—I use a small drinking glass

7) brush the tops of the scones with egg wash (I consider this step optional but it does elevate the taste) and sprinkle on sugar

8) bake in the oven for ten to fifteen minutes or until they’re golden brown on the top and enjoy!

Notes:

- I put the egg as optional because while it does elevate the taste, it feels kind of useless since you can only use so much egg wash :( however you could put in some of the egg mixture (like, three-ish tablespoons??) into the dough since you can’t really taste is anyway

- continuing on the first note, it’s fine to just leave it out. I’ve replaced the egg wash with milk before and it turned out just fine :)

- for vegans: using vegan butter and plant milk should work (milks that don’t have a predominant taste work best here) I’ve never veganized the recipe though so please tell me how it goes if you do!!

- try not to overwork your dough since this causes the dough to become dense and chewy

Im so sorry.. They silenced you, Dean.
