Unripe Fruit Salad

By Tamar Adler

This lovely recipe appears in Tamar Adler’s book rather in the form of a suggestion, which is to say without specific amounts to allow, wisely, for maximum flexibility.

I've eaten a lot of scones. I've made scones a handful of times. I am not a good cook. I'm not a terrible cook, but I'm definitely more critic than chef! I made these scones, and followed the recipe to a tee - except I used a round ravioli cutter as i didn't have any other options! These are without a doubt the best scones I have ever eaten - and I never say that about my own food. My friend said the same thing - and he too, has never once said that about anything I have made! HIGHLY recommend this recipe!
