Biscuit Recipe
Rastus:
What's your best biscuit recipe. I miss my grandmother's biscuits...she had a pinch of yeast in them and they were the best.
Anyone have one of those recipe's with yeast and self-rising flour?
Timothy:
Never knew my grandmas.
Mom made those nasty bisquick things.
I make a decent one but it’s just a basic recipe.
PegLeg45:
I've never put yeast in biscuits.
I do have a good basic yeast roll recipe that can be adjusted for various tastes.
My biscuits use the basics: flour, equal parts lard and cold butter, with either milk or buttermilk depending on what style I want.
I know some folks use sour cream and even mayonnaise as binders, and I know one guy who uses 7up soda as a liquid.
Sorry, couldn't resist:
Rastus:
The sour cream thing sounds interesting. I don't think I've had biscuits with that in them.
PegLeg45:
Rastus, this is the one I have in my files but have yet to try. A friend recommended it and really like it.
