It is a lot easier and more practical for me to just keep the one kind of butter in the house now, especially with the pandemic and not being able to go out to shop. I'll be honest and say up front, I have never noticed much difference between using salted or unsalted butter, which is probably because Lurpak is only lightly salted. Let me know how you get on! xoxoMarie Raynerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00407913432222377267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-66499490920689473672020-08-09T12:18:44.100+01:002020-08-09T12:18:44.100+01:00Hi

I read your replies to other comments and see you say that you’re using salted butter! You don’t say that in the ingredient list? I have sone in the oven now and instead of a splash of milk I used the juice from the lemon, I’m hoping it turns out well😃 cheers!Lynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04521449201425874791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-24919212415864140172016-07-21T05:58:53.305+01:002016-07-21T05:58:53.305+01:00You could use raising, but chop them a bit, so tha...You could use raising, but chop them a bit, so that they are in smaller pieces.

My mother had the same recipe in her Eng...Hi Marie,<br />My mother had the same recipe in her English cookbook she brought to Canada when we immigrated here. Her recipe always called for self-raising flour (and parchment wrapped margarine). I note your side bar says you can make your own self-raising flour by adding 1 1/2 tsp of baking powder and 1/4 tsp of salt to each cup of flour. I note your recipe differs from hers as it includes some baking powder, which almost makes it self-raising, but does not include salt. Was salt omitted from the recipe accidentally, or does this receipt not require it? <br /><br />I was pleased to find your website, for real, English food. I love Jamie, but he uses a lot of ingredients my kiddies won't touch, and I look forward to making many of your recipes in future! Thanks so much for making this blog!Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10985201017903062177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-4624606499977173612013-01-13T22:49:54.157+00:002013-01-13T22:49:54.157+00:00Thanks Marie ....
