ABERDEEN BUTTERIES RECIPE (ALSO KNOWN AS ROWIES)



Aberdeen Butteries Recipe (Also Known As Rowies) image

Butteries, also known as Rowies or even Aberdeen rolls, originated in the northeast of Scotland as an alternative bread roll for fisherman to eat while out at sea. If you've never tried a buttery, it's a bit of a cross between a roll and a croissant, as they're made with layers of pastry and a butter and lard mixture that give them a flakey texture. Some say they look a bit like a squashed croissant. It doesn't sound particularly appealing but they really are delicious!

Time 3h30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

500g (4 cups) Strong Bread Flour
7g (2 1/4 tsp) dried yeast
10g (2/3 tbsp) caster sugar
1 tsp of salt
200g (1 cup) butter
125g (1/2 cup) lard
350ml (1 1/2 cups) tepid water
Extra flour for kneading and rolling

Steps:

  • Mix the yeast, sugar, and water, and set aside.
  • In a large bowl mix the flour and salt.
  • Slowly add the liquid and use a fork to bring it together.
  • Once combined turn out onto a floured work surface and knead until it is elastic and smooth. You might need to sprinkle more flour over to knead in if the mixture is too wet and sticking.
  • Form into a ball, place into a large bowl, score the top with an X, cover in clingfilm and put in a warm place for about an hour to allow it to expand in size (this is called proving).
  • Measure out your butter and lard and cut into small pieces in a bowl to allow it to come to room temperature if it isn't already.
  • After the dough is proved return to a lightly floured work surface and knead very gently before rolling out to a rectangle shape that is about 2/4 of an inch thick. Have the short edge facing you.
  • Beat the butter and lard together with a wooden spoon so it's smooth and roughly split into 3 in the bowl.
  • Using your hands, smear one-third of the butter and lard mixture over the lower two-thirds of your rectangle. Fold the top half (without the mixture) over onto the middle third, and then the bottom third up on top of that.
  • Wait approximately half an hour and repeat the process again, but roll the dough the opposite way to how you have folded it.
  • Wait another half hour and repeat for the last time, turning the dough again to roll the opposite way. You are basically creating layers in the pastry with the butter/lard mixture in between.
  • Roll the dough out to about 3/4 of an inch thick and divide into around 15 pieces which you can then gently shape into rounds. Put these on a lightly floured baking tray (or two) and cover with a large plastic bag or lose cling film, and then allow to prove for a further 30 minutes. You'll want to space the rounds out to allow them to expand.
  • Meanwhile preheat the oven to 200C/400F and when the butteries have finished proving place them into the oven for 15-20 minutes. Keep a close eye on them from the 15-minute mark! They should turn golden brown.
  • Remove from the oven and move to a rack with a plate or paper towels underneath so they're not sitting in the fat on the tray.
  • Allow to cool slightly before eating, or save for later! Serve with jam, or if you dare, even more butter!

BUTTERIES AKA ROWIES



Butteries AKA Rowies image

These are made all over the Aberdeen area of Scotland, stores, bakeries, houses etc. Once you have had these you will be hooked. I became hooked on Hogmanay (New years) when the sweet Scottish woman I worked with had a big ol' platter of these when I got there and very few when I left. They are made with what else.. butter and I...

Time 2h20m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb all purpose flour (about 3 1/3 cup)
6 oz butter (do not substitute)
4 oz lard (can use vegetable oil but will not be as good)
1 tsp heaping of salt
2 tsp heaping of sugar
2 1/4 tsp yeast or 1 package
5 oz lukewarm water

Steps:

  • 1. These are yeast rolls and, just like yeast breads, ought to be made under warm conditions to allow the yeast to raise the dough.
  • 2. Sieve the flour and salt into a large bowl and set aside. Cream the fresh yeast, sugar and a little of the tepid water together and add to the bowl of flour. Mix the ingredients together with enough water to make smooth firm dough. Transfer the dough to a well-floured surface and knead well for about five minutes.
  • 3. Place the dough back into the bowl, cover with a warm slightly damp cloth and set aside in a warm place for about an hour to allow the yeast do its work of expanding the dough to about double its original size.
  • 4. While the dough is rising cream together the butter and lard in readiness for the next step.
  • 5. When the dough has risen, knead it again and then roll it out on a floured surface. Then spread it with a third of the butter/lard mixture and sprinkle lightly with flour. Fold the dough in three and roll it out again.
  • 6. Repeat this procedure two more times. Roll out the dough quite thinly and cut into squares.
  • 7. Bring the four corners of each square to the centre, shape them into rounds and flatten slightly with hand- do not over handle the dough. Place the uncooked rolls onto a floured and warm baking tray and leave them in a warm place to rise for about half an hour to 40 minutes.
  • 8. Bake the rolls in a hot oven at 400F for about 15-20 minutes until golden brown and crispy on both sides.
  • 9. Rolls can be made in a large batch and subsequently frozen for later use. If defrosting frozen rolls in a microwave oven, do not overheat otherwise the rolls will become limp and the fat content will become over-heated and sizzle. Butteries can be eaten dry (without anything spread on them), spread with butter (just in case you really hanker after an early coronary, even if the rolls do then taste splendid) or spread with jam or honey etc.

ROWIES

Provided by 918 Plate

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 packet quick rising yeast
2 t. sugar
1 1/4 C. hot water if not proofing (~120 degrees Fahrenheit)
3 1/2 C. flour
1 t. sea salt
1.5 sticks of butter (6 oz)
1/2 C. lard (4 oz (local and homemade!))

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Stir salt and flour together to break up large clumps in a mixing bowl.
  • Proof yeast (not supposedly necessary with quick rise but I did it anyway) with 2 t. sugar and 1/4 water between 110-115 degrees Fahrenheit).
  • Combine the foamy yeast with the dry ingredients with a dough hook attachment.
  • Add in remaining water and mix on low until it forms a nice smooth dough. Let the hook knead it for a few minutes.
  • Place the dough ball in a bowl and cover with a damp cloth to let it rise to double its original size. (About a half hour to an hour)
  • While dough is rising, cream together lard and butter together.
  • When the rise has completed, knead the dough for an additional two minutes.
  • Roll it out onto a well-floured surface into a large rectangle (about 10in x 13in)
  • Spread 1/3 of the butter and lard mixture over the left 2/3 of the rectangle.
  • Fold the unbuttered dough over towards the center, and fold the other third over it.
  • Pick up and turn the rectangle sideways, so that the open edges are on the left and right.
  • Roll out the new rolled rectangle into a large rectangle of the same size as the last and repeat the buttering and folding process two more times. (Creating layers)
  • Cut rectangle into squares (8-10, depending on size of rectangle)
  • Fold each corner into the center of the pastry, and flatten out into a rough, dimpled circle.
  • Place each pastry on a floured cookie sheet.
  • Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until the edges are golden brown.
  • Served best with butter spread on the bottom.
  • #enJOY!

A NORTH EAST SCOTLAND DELICACY - ROWIES OR BUTTERIES



A North East Scotland Delicacy - Rowies or Butteries image

Rowies, Butteries, or Aberdeen rolls are savoury bread rolls, similar to a flattened croissant, but far superior, though maybe 'slightly' more unhealthy. There is no real record of their history, but one thought is because of their high-fat content they would have been suitable for fisherman to take on longer journeys at sea, but even onshore they can help give your cardioid-vascular system a shock on a cold, wet Aberdeen morning.

Categories     Breakfast, Snack

Time 2h20m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 7

1lb (450g) strong plain bread flour
6oz (170g) butter
6oz (170g) lard
1 tsp of salt
2 tsp sugar
1 tbsp dried yeast
1/4 pint (120ml) tepid water

Steps:

  • First mix the sugar, half the water and the yeast together in a bowl and set aside for the yeast to activate. Sieve the flour and salt into a bowl and then add the yeast. Mix together, adding more water if required to make a smooth dough then kneed for about 5 mins. Place the dough back in the bowl, cover and leave to rise until it has doubled in size, approx 1 hour.
  • Kneed the dough again and roll it out on a floured surface. Cream the butter and the lard together and then spread a third of it over the dough and sprinkle with flour. Fold the dough into three, roll it out again, spread another third of the fat mixture and then repeat once more.
  • Roll the dough quite thinly and cut into 16 equal sized squares. Shape each square into a flattened round, but be careful not to over handle the dough. Place the rounds on a baking tray and leave to rise for approx 40mins.
  • Bake the rolls at 450F (230C) for about 15-20 minutes until crispy and golden.
  • Serve hot or cold with lashings of butter and / or raspberry jam.

ABERDEEN BUTTERIES (ROWIES)

Provided by The Hairy Bikers

Categories     Cakes and baking

Yield Makes 16

Number Of Ingredients 9

500g/1lb 2oz strong plain flour, plus extra for dusting
1 x 7g sachet easy-blend dried yeast
1 tbsp soft light brown sugar
1 tbsp sea salt flakes
350ml/12¼fl oz warm water
vegetable oil, for greasing
275g/9¾oz butter, plus extra to serve
100g/3½oz lard
ready-made jam, to serve

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, mix together the flour, yeast, sugar and salt until well combined.
  • Make a well in the centre of the mixture, then gradually add the water in a thin stream, stirring well with a wooden spoon, until the mixture comes together as a dough. (NB: You may not need to use all of the water.)
  • Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and knead lightly for 8-10 minutes, or until smooth and elastic.
  • Transfer the kneaded dough to a clean, greased bowl and cover with a greased sheet of cling film. Set aside in a warm place to rise (prove) for at least one hour, or until the dough has doubled in size.
  • Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, cream together the butter and lard until well combined. Divide the mixture into four equal portions.
  • When the dough has proved, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for a further 1-2 minutes.
  • Roll out the dough into a 40cm x 20cm/16in x 8in rectangle, about 1cm/½in thick.
  • Turn the dough around so that the shortest edge is facing you. Spread one portion of the butter and lard mixture over the bottom two-thirds of the dough rectangle.
  • Fold the remaining one-third of the dough rectangle over onto the butter and lard mixture to cover the centre section of the dough rectangle. Fold the other end of the dough rectangle over the folded dough, so that the dough ends up three times its original thickness.
  • Roll the dough out again to a 40cm x 20cm/16in x 8in rectangle, about 1cm/½in thick. Repeat the process of spreading and folding with another portion of the butter and lard mixture.
  • Repeat the process twice more, until all of the butter and lard mixture has been used up and the dough has been rolled out a total of four times.
  • Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6.
  • Roll the dough out again to a 40cm x 20cm/16in x 8in rectangle, about 1cm/½in thick. Cut the dough into 16 pieces and roll each into a round, flat bun shape.
  • Transfer the buns to a lightly oiled baking tray and set aside for 40-45 minutes, or until they have doubled in size again (leave enough space between them for expansion).
  • When the buns have risen, bake them in the oven for 15-18 minutes, or until they have risen further and are golden-brown and cooked through. Set aside to cool on a wire rack.
  • Serve each buttery warm, spread with butter and jam.
