Scottish shortbread and a dire warning!!!!!!!
Phew ……….!!!!
Took a while, but I got there!
Warning - blogging can damage your pots and pans!!!!!!!
Was so engrossed in changing blog last night that I totally forgot that I had put a pot of vegetables on to have with our tea (tea in Scotland can also mean your evening meal). Suddenly there was an awful smell and I remembered! The pot was totally black and the kitchen was full of smoke! Had to put the pot outside, it was raining, so that helped. Must be going blog crazy, because it did cross my mind (for one tiny second) to take a photo of burnt pot!!!!!!
Kitchen still reeks this morning!
So, after all that, what do you think of the new style blog?
shortbread mould |
This strange wooden thing (also in header), that looks like a breadboard with a thistle on it is actually a shortbread mould.
yum |
look at the price - 1/6 |
Make your shortbread - this recipe is from an old Be-Ro Flour baking book - one of the most used recipe books in my collection.
Flatten onto mould - as in directions for Petticoat Tails
Remove from mould
Bake
Cut into little triangles
Perfect with a wee cuppa!
Oops …… what's that smell?????!!!!!!! (only joking)
Love, Liz

I like the look! That's a very pretty shortbread mould. I don't think shortbread is as popular in the States, but I do love it, too! I've only had store bought, but it looks easy to make. I'll have to try making my own, but I'll need to find a mould first!
