Scones have the following basic ingredients: * wheat flour * baking powder * baking soda * milk * butter
Scones are made from a shortbread crust variation. To make a dense yet crumbly pastry, you would need a generous amount of shortening.
yes you can use plain flour - you just need to add 3-4 tsp baking powder to each 8 oz (225 g) of plain flour

Scones are formally eaten with a cup of tea and are for any time of the day. If you plan on meeting a friend for a chat and you are very posh you would probably give them a cup of tea and some scones. (*or get somebody to make them)
because britan can only make half as much food is they need so we need to make the other half for them and our own food so it is better if we eat only irish food then less people will lose their jobs and less companies will shut down if we eat our own food we are helpin irish people get more money to make more food
Yes, butter works well. Some people believe the best result is half butter and half shortening.
Yes but you'll need to add baking powder at the rate of 1 teaspoon of baking powder for each cup of flour. Sift it together. For especially light scones you may increase the baking powder to 1.5 teaspoons per cup of flour.
You use a regular bread recipe and substitute half of the flour with whole wheat flour.
strong flour contains large amount of gluten because the strong flour contain large amount of water absoration powder when you want to make bread so you take firstly flour if that flour absorb more amount of water it's means they have large amount of gluten
I would not. Yorkshire Pudding is simple to make, but corn flour would REALLY change the texture and flavor. Stick with wheat flour.
The fat in scones is what makes them light and crumbly, as opposed to rock-like. You may be able to reduce the fat content slightly (if it's quite a high proportion of fat to flour, you should be able to reduce the fat by about 1/4 -1/3), but the scones will not have a pleasant texture if all of the fat is removed. If you just want to cut down the fat content, try using margarine. Margarine still results in scones with a reasonable texture, but since it contains more liquid than butter, you will probably need to reduce the amount of milk that you add when you form a dough. (Otherwise the dough is very sloppy).
