| 1. Preheat oven to 425°F. | 2. Lightly grease a baking tray and dust it with flour. | 3. Sift the flour and salt together into a large bowl. | 4. Add butter to the bowl, toss briefly through the flour, then rub it in with your (preferably cold) fingertips until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. | 5. Stir in the herbs. | 6. Start adding the milk, mixing initially with a spatula or palette knife, and then when the dough starts to come together, with a quick light hand. | 7. You are aiming for a soft, unsticky dough which leaves the sides of the bowl clean; you may not need all the milk – if, however, the dough seems a bit dry, add a teaspoon more milk at a time. | 8. Be careful not to add too much milk, and do not overwork the dough. | 9. Shape the dough into a round with your hands and place on a lightly floured surface. | 10. Flour the rolling pin, then lightly roll out the dough to a thickness of a half-inch. | 11. Stamp out 2” rounds with a biscuit cutter. | 12. When you are left with the trimmings, bring these together and roll out again lightly, and continue stamping out rounds until you have cut out the last scone. | 13. Lay the scones on the prepared tray, and brush the tops lightly with the extra milk. | 14. Bake 10 – 12 minutes until well risen and lightly browned. | 15. Remove to a wire rack to cool. | 16. Serve as suggested above, and store any left over in the freezer, to be gently re-warmed later in a microwave oven. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
