Title: Simple Biscuit
Categories: Five, Breads
Yield: 12 servings
2 c A-P flour
3 ts Baking powder
1 ts Salt
1/3 c Cold butter; in cubes
2/3 c Milk
The first step to making great simple biscuits is to whisk together
your dry ingredients. Use the biggest mixing bowl you got and just
give the flour, baking powder and salt a quick whisk - just to get
them incorporated.
Then grab your cold butter and cut it into cubes. Cut these butter
bits into your dry ingredients with a pastry blender until the
mixture looks like coarse crumbs. The last step of creating the dough
is adding the milk. Stir it in until the dough is just moistened - no
need to overwork it.
Next up, you’ll give the biscuits a quick knead. Sprinkle your clean
work surface with a bit of flour (just so it doesn’t stick) and turn
the dough out. Knead the biscuits gently eight to ten times. Then
press the dough with your hands until it’s a half-inch thick. Grab a
2 1/2" biscuit cutter and cut out your biscuits.
Editor’s tip: If you don’t have a biscuit cutter or round cookie
cutter, just use a glass or cup with a thin rim. Dip the edge into
some flour and use that as a cutter. It works just as well.
Finally, place your biscuits onto an ungreased baking sheet. Give
them a little room-about an inch between each. Bake @ 450ºF/232ºC for
10 to 15 minutes or until golden brown. Serve them warm. If you love
vintage cookbooks, try these cottage cheese biscuits.
