Chef's Notes
Keep your butter stubbornly cold. Temperature is the secret weapon of the flaky texture.
Pro Tip
Freeze your grated or cubed butter for ten minutes before mixing to guarantee maximum structural flakiness.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Using warm butter that melts into the flour before baking, resulting in flat, sad, hockey-puck scones that even the royal dogs refuse to eat.

Royal Court Comedy
Why did the scone go to therapy? Because it felt a little crumbly under pressure.

Starch Retrogradation Reversal
Storage Science
Store at room temperature in a breathable bread bag or paper wrapper for up to 2 days. DO NOT refrigerate, as the cold accelerates starch retrogradation (staling). For long-term storage, freeze tightly wrapped.
Reheating Science
To reverse staling, flick a few drops of water onto the crust and reheat in a 350ยฐF (175ยฐC) oven for 5-8 minutes. The steam will re-gelatinize the starches, making the crumb soft and the crust crisp.
