How to make it
- Directions
- Preheat oven to 425
- Mix dry ingredients in large mixing bowl
- work in shortening witha pastry blender until you have a fine, irregular mixture of small crumbs.
- Add mik all at once and stir with fork until dough comes together.
- Turn out on lightly floured surface and GENTLY knead dough no more than 12 or 14 times. This is the critical step. If you overknead you will develop the flour gluten and have tough biscuits.
- Pat dough lightly until it is 3/4 inch thick
- use a 1 inch round cutter and cut into shape. If using round cutter, press scraps together and form a couple of extra biscuits.
- Place at least one inch apart on ungreased baking or cookie sheet.
- Bake for about 15 minutes until puffy and browned.
