How to make raisin scones:

Sift flour and cream of tartar into a bowl. Cut in butter. Add raisins, whole egg and enough buttermilk to make a soft dough. Mix and turn out on floured board. Knead a few times. (The less handling, the better.) Roll to 1/2-inch thickness. Cut into 2-inch triangles or circles.

Put on cookie sheets and prick tops several times with fork. Beat egg yolk with a little cold water and brush on scones. Sprinkle with sugar. Bake in preheated oven (425°) for about 15 minutes. Good for breakfast and with tea. Makes about 2 dozen.
