Butter scones – Vajas pogácsa

by | Jun 17, 2022 | Breads, buns & biscuits

I received the recipe of these butter scones from a dear acquaintance of mine a few years ago, and since then I have baked them several times. The dough is prepared one day earlier, the scones require no folding and they remain soft for 3-4 days if they are stored in an airtight container.

Hungarian cottage cheese

This is what Hungarian túró looks like

You often ask me what kind of cottage cheese (or curd cheese or farmer's cheese - call it what you want) I use in the recipes. In Hungary the store-bought cottage cheese is dry and crumbly as you can see in the picture. So if a recipe calls for túró, I mean this type. If you can't obtain túró, you can try to make your own from whole milk. Click on the link below.

Metric system vs cup

In Hungary metric units are in use, all the recipes on this website are based on this system, so a kitchen scale is necessary. Since I’m not familiar with cup as a measurement unit, I convert grams to cups by using an online converter. The values in brackets, therefore, are only approximate volumes, so, please, double-check them before you start cooking.
