Steps:
- Heat oven to 400°F. Soak currants in enough warm water to cover 10 minutes to soften; drain.
- Mix flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in medium bowl. Cut in butter, using pastry blender or crisscrossing 2 knives, until mixture looks like fine crumbs. Stir in orange peel, egg, currants and just enough half-and-half until dough leaves side of bowl.
- Turn dough onto lightly floured surface. Knead lightly 10 times. Divide dough in half. Roll or pat each half into 6-inch circle, about 1/2-inch thick. Place on ungreased cookie sheet; brush with egg white.
- Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheet. Cut each circle into 10 wedges.

[email protected]I've tried this recipe several times and I can never get the scones to brown evenly. They always end up being burnt on the bottom and pale on the top.
