Scones fermented at low temperature have a more fragrant flavor. Do you know how they are made?
Scone, also known as simple toast bread, is a fast-food simple bread-like Western pastry that is mainly used to solve the urgent need for breakfast. Traditional scones require the use of a key leavening agent, which is baking powder. When it comes to such additives, people may be daunted by some negative news. In fact, truly aluminum-free baking powder is still a relatively healthy life. Today’s scone rejects baking powder and is fermented at low temperature. It has a richer taste and is a delicious meal for the whole family as soon as possible. Abandon traditional baking powder and use low-temperature fermentation. Make the dough and ferment it at low temperature in the refrigerator for one night. When you wake up in the morning, you can make a large plate of scones in just over ten minutes. The taste is more fragrant and soft. It is worth a try. Process for making blueberry dried scones
