Ingredients
- One method:
- 6 cups of self-rising flour
- 3/4 cup shortening
- 16 ounces buttermilk
- Alternate Ingredients for similar biscuits:
- 2 cups All-purpose flour, stirred to loosen before measuring
- 2 tsps. baking powder
- 1/4 tsp. baking soda
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1/4 cup vegetable shortening, chilled
- 2 Tbsps. butter, cold
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
Directions
- Preheat oven to 500° F.
- Add flour to large mixing bowl and make a well in the middle.
- Add buttermilk and shortening.
- Work shortening with your fingers, breaking it up into tiny pieces.
- Blend the flour into the liquid, pulling it inwards, a little at a time. Work in enough flour to make a soft dough.
- You don't want it too sticky or too.
- There may still be some flour around the sides of your bowl but you should NOT use all the flour.
- Dust your hands with flour.
- Pinch off pieces of dough about the size of a small orange, about 1/3 cup.
- Work the dough in one hand, using your fingers to move it in a circular motion.
- Remember, you only want to shape them.
- Place biscuits side-by-side with no gaps between them on a greased baking sheet.
- When you have every biscuit placed on the sheet, press 2 or 3 of your knuckles lightly in the tops of each one. Or not.
- Bake for approximately 20 minutes, or until light brown on top.
- When they are done, remove from pan immediately.
- Place in a basket, and cover with a clean kitchen tea towel.
- Serve with butter and we like to have honey and preserves on hand.
