    | 1. Preheat oven to 190c / 375f. | 2. Mix the 250g butter into the flour either with your hands or in a blender. | 3. Add the sugar, salt and baking powder and then mix in the milk and wine vinegar until you have a smooth dough. | 4. Grease a large baking tray with some of the remaining butter. | 5. Divide the dough into 3 equal portions. | 6. Wet your hands with a little cold water and quickly roll the dough into long dough sausages, about 30cm long. | 7. Arrange the dough sausages in parallel lines on the tray, dotting a few bits of extra butter in between. | 8. Bake for 45mins - 1hour until the tops are golden and crusty. | 9. Remove from the oven and turn the oven temperature down to 150c / 300f. | 10. The dough sausages will have joined together so cut down the lengths to separate them and then cut each sausage into 3cm pieces. | 11. Leave them to cool for a bit so that they are more manageable, then list them up and break them in half down the middle so they look nice and rustic. | 12. Return them to the baking tray, this time laying them on their sides and bake in the oven for a further hour (30 mins each side) to dry them out. | 13. Let them cool completely before storing in a closed container or paper bag, where they will keep well for up to around 5 days. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
