The Day After: Great Recipes for the Leftovers
Sason:
Ok, I see. I don't think I ever had a bisquit.
CellarDweller:
I think it depends on who makes the scones, they can look very similar to biscuits.
This is the scone that Americans see.
Our scones tend to be almost triagular, and often are not plain.....the pic above is a chocolate cherry scone.
This is a plain scone, from the UK.
This looks very similiar to our biscuits, which are below.
the triangular scones first pictured above are served room temperature, usually.
The biscuits just above are served warm, are light and flakey, and can be pulled apart easily.
Sason:
The biscuits look yummi!
If they're light and flakey there's probably quite a lot of butter in them.
The variety of scones we usually have here tends to be a bit dry, so probably not quite the same.
They were very popular in the 70s, I don't actually think I've had them since then.
The were always plain, no such thing as chocolate or cherries in the dough.
They're always triangular, looked like this before cut:

CellarDweller:
