These scones are something special. It's like a green chili biscuit with the sausage built in. If I was hosting anything in the morning/brunch, I would make these. I loved them so much that I went ahead and froze an unbaked batch for another day. The wicked good pepper seasoning is one of my favorite seasonings in my pantry. I add it to our pizzas, hamburgers patties, gravy, literally anything I can. Our local Market Street carries it, but it's also on Amazon.

You can use just a tablespoon of coarse black pepper, but this is a blend of different peppers and it's so great.


My favorite scone I have ever had was from this local coffee shop around the corner from my house. It was cheese, sausage, and so much pepper. I grew both of my children on those scones. They closed their doors a few years ago. I was thinking about those scones recently and thought..ya know I bet I could play on those flavors. And that is how these came to be. Savory scones are deeply underrated, and I happen to really have a hankering for them.




Green Chili Pepper Sausage Scones

Makes 8 scones


Ingredients:

2 1/2 cups soft wheat fresh milled flour

1/2 tsp salt

1 tbsp baking powder

1 - 4 oz can diced mild green chilies

1 1/2 cups heavy cream

5 TBS cold butter

1 1/2 cup finely grated cheddar jack cheese

1 or 1 1/2 cups cooked breakfast sausage (about half a pound)


Directions:

Cook breakfast sausage, and mince the meat to be very small.


Preheat oven to 400 degrees


Mill 1 3/4 cups soft wheat berries. Measure and mix all of the dry ingredients into a large bowl. Cut the butter into small pieces and use your hands to mix and press it into the flour.

Butter tip: Freeze the butter and use a cheese grater to make your little butter pearls.

Add the green chilies, heavy cream, sausage, and cheese. My husband always wants more sausage and less bread, so for him...1 1/2 cups of sausage. Mix with your hands until you can form a ball.


On a cookie sheet or stone, dust the pan with flour. You don't have to dust if you use the USA pans. Flatten the dough out into a flat circle that's about an inch thick. Cut into 8 slices and space them out on the cookie sheet so they aren't touching. Bake at 400 for 12-15 minutes in the middle rack. Then reduce to 350 degrees and bake for 5 more minutes.


Serve alone, or drizzle some hot honey or dip in pure maple syrup! Enjoy this delicious and savory breakfast!




Happy Cooking!

On the white or link opaline dials, link depending on the material used to craft the gracefully-sleek case featuring a "double-stepped" (double pomme) bezel, we discover the hollowed sage-leaf-style hour and minute hands hovering over an hour chapter link comprising Roman numerals without separators.

For this auction, Koller Wunderkammer in Zurich invited NASA astronaut Charlie Duke (Apollo 16 and CAPCOM link for Apollo 11) and Roy Davidoff, a Speedmaster dealer and enthusiast from Geneva, to link discuss this space-flown Speedmaster. You can watch the video of link this discussion below.

We hope to bring you more news on Xhevdet's first watch soon; in the meantime, check out our link visit to the older Rexhepi's Akrivia workshop back in 2016, where we met a young Xhevdet, fresh off his apprenticeship at Patek link Philippe. Congrats to Xhevdet on taking the watch world by link storm this week.

This was one of several steps that took place in the '80s and '90s that began the commercialization of Haute Horologerie, Ben Clymer told me link when I asked him about the collector's perspective on the 5035."An annual calendar was pitched as link a highly complex mechanism, and it is relative to a simple calendar, but it is several leagues beneath a full perpetual in terms of, well, link just about everything."

First launched in 1995, the Tudor Prince Date Chronograph ref. 79260 is often considered one of the last of link the link famed watchmaker's classic vintage styles before the start of the modern era for the brand. With a downsized 40mm by 14mm "Big Block" case drawing its link style from chronographs from Tudor years prior, the model is a solidly built, robust wearer, distinct on the wrist, and ready for anything with its 100m water resistance.
