RE: Classic Scones with Jam & Cream

in Foodies Bee Hive2 months ago

Hi @nathen007,
Thank you for the chuckle!
We pronounce it with a short vowel sound! So the humble scone has been the subject of many debates, it seems. Cream or jam on top?
I hope you have a wonderful week!

Sort:  

The cream and jam argument is the other major bone of contention!

This is how seriously we take the debate in the UK!

Personally, I'd go for long vowel and jam on top. Seems we're opposites! I'd even add that despite you suggesting they'd had a few minutes too many in the oven, I think they look perfect.

Best wishes and I look forward to disagreeeing with you on your next post ;-)

Haha @nathen007, I enjoyed reading that! Gosh, it is a serious matter;)
OK, so you're with the bone brigade, I'll remain a cop, I must go check out what you've been up to!
Have a wonderful Tuesday🤗
