Preheat oven to 425 B0F. Lightly flour large baking sheet. Mix 3 cups
flour, sugar, baking soda and salt in large bowl. Add butter and rub
in with fingertips until mixture resembles fine meal. Mix in
currants. Mix in egg and enough buttermilk to form soft dough. Turn
dough out onto floured surface. Pat dough into 3/4-inch-thick round.
Cut out rounds, using 2 1/2-inch round cookie cutter. Gather scraps,
