Preparation Steps
- Step 1: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Step 2: In a large bowl, mix together all-purpose flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and granulated sugar.
- Step 3: Incorporate very cold, diced unsalted butter into the dry mixture until it resembles coarse meal.
- Step 4: In a smaller bowl, whisk together the egg, whole milk, and heavy cream until well combined. Pour into dry mixture.
- Step 5: Carefully fold in quartered fresh strawberries into the dough.
- Step 6: Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and pat into an 8-inch circle, about 1-inch thick.
- Step 7: Cut the circle into 8 equal wedges and transfer to the baking sheet.
- Step 8: Create an egg wash by whisking together the beaten egg and water. Brush over the tops of the scones.
- Step 9: Bake for about 18 minutes until golden brown.
- Step 10: Cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes, then drizzle with the glaze.

Notes
Avoid overmixing for the best scone texture. Cold butter is essential for flakiness.
