Raisin Scones | 葡萄乾司康

Updated: Aug 12, 2019

第一次接觸到scone的時候是在台北信義區的Smith&Hsu。有朋友推薦說司康超好吃的，其實我對它的第一印象是看起來乾乾的，不曉得等下咬下去是硬的還是軟的？殊不知原來還要搭配果醬或是奶油 😂 但吃完後覺得真的還不錯吃，搭配茶或咖啡很對味。

第二次吃的時候是跟小學朋友在善導寺站的悄悄好食

她說：這裡的司康是全台灣最好吃的！

抱著懷疑 (我懷疑的理由是因為前後吃過很多司康，但是一直都沒有覺得比#smith&hsu的好吃），到櫃檯點了芋頭司康。果真．．．超～好～吃～的！！！！（欲罷不能，很想要再加點一個！可惜當時吃不下）

來加拿大後，好像很少看到司康，可是又突然很想吃，就決定上網找看看食譜，沒想到材料還蠻簡單的！有興趣的可以一起做看看喔！

The first time I had scone when when I went to Smith&Hsu in Xinyi, Taipei. I've never had scones before in my life, so I didn't what to expect -- does it taste like a cookie? a bread? a cake?

Little did I know that it comes with jam and whipping cream to go with. The scone itself isn't too sweet, it was crispy o the outside and fluffy on the inside, paired with some blueberries jam just intensified the flavour. And that's when I fell in love with scones.

Since then when I had the chance to order scone, I would try, but there aren't many tasty scones out there. Until one day... my elementary friend took me to a place called Ciao Ciao Scone and told me it was THE BEST scones in Taiwan -- and it was! The dessert shop also offers a variety of different flavours of scones, I wish I had the chance to try every single one! They were to die for and now they are my NO.1 scones!

So I've been craving for some scones, and I thought why not try to bake one? It's not gonna taste as good as Ciao Ciao's, but hey, it's healthy and the recipe is simple too! Check it out!
