Match Day Thread Leicester v Southampton, Tuesday 23rd April, 8PM

No butter for me…the cream cancels the need for it

 

[shoot_spiderman]

Nope! I'm married to a cornish maid. It is Butter first then jam then dollop cream on top, where else is cream not a topping?

I have no problem with this. Butter is an option and one I have dabbled in
Its the order thats Important

Cream
Jam
Butter (Optional)
Scone

... and no placing any of them in the wrong positions, it just won't work I tell you!

Also, I prefer Clotted Cream, but have accepted the whipped double alternative and found it acceptable (and not only in the Dungeon)

A savoury version is also possible, with Cheese Scones, Cream Cheese and Chilli Jam

PS All versions are basically Red & White - COYS

For me the practical consideration makes this a no-brainer and anyone doing it the other way is being wilfully obtuse

You can spread jam on a scone with a knife, try spreading jam on cream, catastrophic mess
Try dunking jam on cream, it won't leave the spoon and if you scrape it off with a knife but its just a blob on the cream, and you're starting to get a complex cutlery sharing situation

Happy to discuss what jam though. Berry for me and ideally not the Straw kind

I have recently discovered a peach jam in one of my local supermarkets and it has become my go to accompaniment with my morning toast.

You have now opened the scone-based floodgates on the jam first, then cream, or cream first, then jam, debate. Personally, I prefer cream first, then jam.

Of course, living in Devon, I'm of the cream first persuasion, but the Cornish do apparently have some international support......https://www.facebook.com/share/v/H6TJbsPTgj9pTdn7/

I doubt he’d recognise a scone if it slapped him in the kisser, but either way he’d undoubtedly eat it with a knife and fork

And pronounce it wrong

 

[King Grimlock]

And pronounce it wrong

WHY DO THIS!

 

[Archers Road]

WHY DO THIS!

Because it’s less divisive than talking about football

 

[Lemons and Oranges]

Because it’s less divisive than talking about football

No it isn't

JJinDevon started it Sir!

The Portuguese like Quince for breakfast, it's good with Queijo too
