First Days of Spring In English Countryside | Simple Slow Living | Wild Garlic Foraging & Scones
Simple slow days of early spring in English countryside.
Staying at my friends cute little village for a few days to look after her cat.
Foraging for wild garlic.
Making wild garlic cheese scones and butter.
Spring took a while to arrive this time. I’ve been spending many rainy days at home, cozy with a book. I’m catching every little moment of sunshine as often as I can - it’s still not a very common sight in English countryside today.
Hopefully more brighter and happier days of spring will arrive soon to my corner of the world.
Is it sunny where you are?

Wild Garlic Cheese Scones:
125 g wholewheat flour
125 g plain white flour
50g cold butter
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper
60g wild garlic
75g cheddar cheese
25g parmesan
100 ml of milk
Preheat the oven to 200C/ 390F.
Chop butter finely and mix with the flour by roughly rubbing it with the palms of your hands until it turns into crumble. Make sure the butter is very cold straight out of the fridge - I like to chop it up first and then store in the fridge while I gather all other ingredients.
Then add baking powder, salt, black pepper, finely chopped wild garlic and cheese. Mix using a spoon or table knife to make sure the ingredients are not overmixed.
Lastly add milk and mix again roughly by hand until the dough starts to hold shape. Transfer onto a flat surface and shape it into a disk about high. Either cut it like a cake with a knife to make triangular shapes, or take a cookie cutter or a glass bottle like I did and cut out round shapes.
Lay onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Brush the tops of your scones with a bit of milk.
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the top of the scone is lightly golden.
These are also freezer friendly - you can bake the amount you’re going to eat and freeze the rest until you want to eat it next time. You will have to bake it for about 18-20 minutes from frozen.
