Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
3 cups white whole-wheat flour -- plus more for
shaping the dough
1/3 cup granulated sugar -- plus
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter -- cut into pieces, (12 Tbsp)
1 1/4 cups fresh blueberries
1/2 cup crystallized ginger -- chopped
3/4 cup milk -- plus more for brushing
Turbinado sugar -- for sprinkling
Hands-On: 20 Mins
Total: 50 Mins
Heat oven to 375F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt
in a large bowl. Add the butter and blend with a pastry blender or
your fingers until crumbly. Fold in the blueberries and ginger. Stir
in the milk.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and form into two 6"
disks. Using a chef's knife, cut each disk into 6 wedges. Place the
wedges on the prepared sheet, brush with milk, and sprinkle lightly
with the turbinado sugar.
Bake, rotating once, until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool on
the pan. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Review: The recipe is great except for one thing; these scones will
be hard as rocks it one follows the recipe exactly as written. I
learned from my grandmother that one needs to keep the butter cold so
that the scones don't end up hard. If, while making the scones, the
butter becomes soft, stick it all in the freezer for a minute or so.
Apart from that, I love the combination of blueberries and ginger.
