Join me on a day-trip to Gleneagles - a famous Scottish resort just over an hour away from Edinburgh. Then it's back home to my kitchen where I'll share a recipe for the most delicious shortbread.
Shortbread Recipe:
350g / 2 ¾ cups plain flour
125g / 1 cup caster sugar
Pinch of salt
250g / 1 cup + 2tbsp butter
Caster Sugar for dusting
Directions:
Set the oven to 160°C/325°F/Gas Mark 3. Put the flour, sugar and salt into a bowl. Cut the butter into pieces and add to the bowl. Work the mixture until it forms a ball (do not beat the mixture). The mixing may take a while.
Put the dough into a round baking tin and press it down until flat. Smooth with the back of a spoon.
Place the tin in the centre of the oven and bake for about 30-40 mins, or until the mixture is a pale golden colour.
Remove the shortbread from the tins and cut into equal triangles, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool. Dust with caster sugar before serving. (Not suitable for freezing).
