Discovery scones

Cooking can honestly be an extreme sport. It requires that one be present. This makes sense because one of the benefits of being in the kitchen is that it can be therapeutic. Not being focused in the kitchen can lead to your meal not turning out the way you anticipated and a bruised ego.

Once in a good while, a mistake in the kitchen might be for the greater good. One might actually make a discovery that’s worth making note of. What happened was, I went into the kitchen knowing full well that I was short of ingredients to whip up probably the most basic of meals. So my mind wasn’t settled and I didn’t take the greatest look around. I kind of just glanced, I saw one, two things and figured. Scones. There’s no store bought bread, there’s no Nutriday plain yoghurt so I couldn’t make my favourite SOS 2 ingredient dough to create any type of bread.

I had some inkomazi in the fridge for a minute and was honestly scared to look at the BB date. I thought I’ll just open it and see what we are working with. A scupu as well as a box. I got to bring the ingredients together in a bowl. I love how simple scones are; you don’t even have to get your hands dirty. I brought the small box out of the fridge, shook it and poured half a cup out as per instructions. Upon pouring the contents of the box out, I thought to myself with a slight tilt of the head. Ah, gompieno this inkomazi looks different. I decided it’s because it stayed too long in the fridge. It wasn’t giving me that sour milk, madila, butter milk thing. Seemed a bit thin. I carried on and greased my baking tin. I chose to use a cupcake tin to create 12 identical mini scones.
