Steps:

• Getting reading: Center a rack in the oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment or a silicone mat.
• Stir the egg, buttermilk and apple cider together.
• Whisk the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt together in a large bowl. Drop in the butter and, using your fingers, toss to coat the pieces of butter with flour. Quickly, working with your fingertips or a pastry blender, cut and rub the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture is pebbly. You'll have pea-size pieces, pieces the size of oatmeal flakes and pieces the size of everything in between - and that's just right.
• Pour the liquid ingredients over the dry ingredients and stir with a fork just until the dough, which will be very wet and sticky, comes together. If there are still some dry ingredients in the bottom of the bowl, stir them in, but try not to overdo the mixing. Stir in the grated cheese and dried apple.
• Still in the bowl, gently knead the dough by hand, or turn it with a rubber spatula 8 to 10 times. Then, because the dough is very sticky, the easiest thing to do is to turn it out onto a lightly floured work surface, pat it into a rectangle about 1/2 inch thick and, using a dough scraper or a chef's knife, cut it into 12 roughly equal pieces; place on the baking sheet. Alternatively, you can just spoon out 12 equal mounds onto the baking sheet. (At this point, the scones can be frozen on the backing sheet, then wrapped airtight. Don't defrost before baking - just add about 2 minutes to the baking time.).
• Bake the scones for 20 to 22 minutes, or until their tops are golden and firmish. Transfer them to a rack and cool for 10 minutes before serving, or wait for the scones to cool to room temperature. (Or you can let them cool for about 3 minutes, and enjoy them while the cheese is still warm and gooey!).

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in the bowl of a food processor and pulse once. Sprinkle the butter evenly on top. Pulse, pulse, pulse - in 1-second bursts - until the mixture looks like grated Parmesan cheese.
• Add 1 1/2 cups of the Cheddar and pulse, pulse, pulse, while slowly drizzling in the cream, until the dough starts to come together.
• Form the dough into a disk, and transfer to a floured work space. Gently roll the dough with a rolling pin into a 1-inch-thick rectangle. Cut out 35 pieces of dough, using a 1-inch-diameter ring mold, and transfer to a parchment-paper-lined sheet pan.
• Bake, turning the pan halfway through, until golden brown and cooked through, 14 to 15 minutes. Let cool.
• Meanwhile, combine the malt vinegar and apples in a medium mixing bowl. Stir in the creme fraiche, scallions and remaining Cheddar, and mix well.
• When the scones are cool enough to handle, halve them equatorially. Place 1 slice of the corned beef on the bottom half of the scone, and top with the apple, cheese and scallions, followed by the top half of the scone. Repeat until all of the scones are filled.

Steps:

• Mix by hand just until the ingredients are incorporated.
• If the dough is too dry to hold together,use the remaining buttermilk,adding one tablespoon at a time, until dough is pliable and can be formed into a ball.
• Stir as lightly and as little as possible to ensure a light-textured scone.
• Remove dough from bowl and place on a lightly floured flat surface.
• Pat the dough into a ball.
• Using a well-floured rolling pin, flatten the dough into a circle about 8 inches wide and 1/2 inch thick.
• Cut the dough into 8 to 10 wedges, depending on the size scone you prefer.
• Whisk the egg and water in a small mixing bowl.
• Brush each wedge with the egg wash.
