Method
1.Preheat the oven to very hot, 240°C. Lightly grease an oven tray.
2.Sift the flour, salt, sugar, gum and soda into a medium bowl then rub in the butter. Add the egg and then enough buttermilk to make a soft sticky dough.
3.Turn dough onto a floured board and knead lightly until smooth.
4.Pat the dough to 2cm thickness then cut into rounds using a 5.5cm cutter. Place the scones on the prepared tray, almost touching each other. Leave the scones to stand for 5 minutes, then brush the tops with a little extra buttermilk.
5.Bake in a very hot oven for about 15 minutes or until browned.
