Directions
Preheat oven to 350℉ (180℃) F (175 degrees C).
Mix together flour, sugar, baking soda in a large bowl.
Use your fingers to rub butter into flour mixture until mixture resembles coarse meal.
Stir in currants.
Whisk together egg and buttermilk in a small bowl or a measuring cup.
Pour milk and egg mixture into the flour mixture and use a wooden spoon to stir to make a soft dough (if the dough feels too dry, add a little more buttermilk).
On a lightly floured working surface or cutting board, shape dough into a ball and knead lightly about 5 times.
Roll out dough into ¼ inch thick and cut into squares and/or triangles (1½ to 2 inches in diameter).
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until slightly browned.
Cool on wire racks and store in an air-tight container.
