October 6, 2004 Bake Biscuits Day "Y'ALL COME BACK NOW" BISCUITS
Celebrate Biscuit Day by throwing together a real old-fashioned, down home recipe like everybody's grandmother used to make (at least in the movies)!
"Y'ALL COME BACK NOW" BISCUITS
2 cups all purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/3 cup solid vegetable shortening
3/4 cup milk or buttermilk
Combine the dry ingredients then cut in the shortening
with the back of a fork until crumbly. Add the milk or
buttermilk and stir until you have a soft dough. Throw
out onto a piece of floured wax paper and kneed 4 or 5
times (just kneed in more flour if the dough too sticky).
Roll out dough about 1/2 inch thick. Dip a glass in flour
and cut circles for biscuits. Place your biscuits 1 inch
apart on a greased cookie sheet and bake at 400F for
15 to 18 minutes or until golden brown.
