Muddle - up, in Devon lots of white pepper required and pasty crimped on the top, not the side. There is a theory that the first pasty was invented in Plymouth, Devon and that the Cornish took all the credit. ?
I read the books as a teen and didn't like what I saw of the first series and wouldn't watch this one even if I had a telly. The pictures in my head don't match.
The original series was shown past my bedtime and l haven't read any Poldark novels, so it's all new to me. I find the scenery beautiful and am enjoying the story. It is annoying when a film is made of an enjoyed book and they change parts of the story, or even worse the ending. Often the actors cast bear no resemblance to the characters description, or ones own imagined picture. My Heathcliff, read as a teen is very different to any actor I've seen portray him. I will say ' my Heathcliff' is a spit of Aidan Turner ?.
I love Aidans 'twinkle' . He was great in Desperate Romantics , but he first came to my attention as the tortured vampire John Mitchell in the wonderful Being Human, I've been a fan ever since. ?
They're more 'biscuity' in texture - you pull them apart when you take them out of the oven and put them back in the oven to 'dry out' and become quite crumbly - eaten by bulders and farmworkers with cheese in their 'pack-up',
As my family didn't hail from Suffolk, I had to have a lesson in rusk making from my future MIL before I married Wonky's father.
Don't think he was so pernickety the second time around.

You must always bribe the knockers else mischief will soon follow?
Too true , poor little imps. I wonder if we'll hear talk of knockers when Poldark begins this weekend.?

I actually prefer home made cheese scones over creamy jammy ones, lovely dunked in soup.?
Does anyone here know Suffolk Rusks?

They look good and simple to bake, might give them a go.
