In a food processor or large bowl, whirl or mix together flour, sugar, baking powder, soda, and salt. Add butter; whirl or rub with fingers until coarse crumbs form. If using a food processor, add apricots, ginger, and peel; pulse until just blended. Otherwise, stir them into flour mixture. Add buttermilk and whirl or stir just until evenly moistened. Scrape dough onto a floured board and knead about 6 turns or until dough holds together. On a 12x15 inch lightly greased baking sheet, pat dough into an oval about 7x12 inches. With a floured knife, cut diagonal lines through dough, forming 8 or 9 triangles. Bake in a 400 degree F. oven until golden brown, about 25 minutes. Break along scores to serve.
