In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt, then rub in the butter until it is evenly distributed.
3
Finely chop the wild garlic, and mix half of it into the flour mixture along with the sheep cheese.
4
Add the sour cream, egg, and activated yeast, then knead the dough thoroughly.
5
On a floured surface, roll out the dough to about 2 cm (¾ inch) thick, then fold it in thirds three times to create a layered texture.
6
Cover with a kitchen towel and let it rest for 30 minutes to rise.
7
Roll out the dough again to about 2 cm (¾ inch) thick, then use a round cookie cutter to cut out the scones.
8
Place the scones on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and brush the tops with beaten egg.
9
Sprinkle the remaining wild garlic on top, then bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
