SELF-RISING BISCUITS

Steps:

• (Important note: You may substitute 2 1/2 cups buttermilk for the milk/vinegar mixture.)(Important note #2: If you use salted butter instead of shortening/lard, decrease the amount of salt you add.)Preheat the oven to 475 F.In a measuring pitcher, combine milk and vinegar. Stir together and set aside for 10 minutes. Note: You can use 2 1/2 cups buttermilk instead of the milk and vinegar if you have some on hand.In a large bowl sift together the flour and salt. Use a pastry cutter to cut in the lard (or butter or shortening or both) until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a fork or wooden spoon until it all comes together. Flour the surface, then turn out the dough and knead 10-15 times, adding a little flour so it's less sticky. Roll out dough to 1/3 to 1/2 inch thick and use a biscuit cutter to cut medium to small circles. Place on a baking sheet 1/2 inch apart and bake for approximately 10 minutes, or until golden brown on top. Remove from oven and immediately brush on melted butter. To die for!***Baking time will vary depending on the size of the biscuit cutter you use. I made mini biscuits, which took about 9 to 10 minutes. Larger biscuits will take longer, so keep an eye on them as they bake.

EASY 3 INGREDIENT SELF-RISING FLOUR BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 450F (232 C)
• Measure out your flour by fluffing it up with a spoon, lightly spooning it into your measuring cup being careful not to pack it down, and level it off. Or use a scale to measure by weight. Place in a large mixing bowl.
• Cut your cold butter into small chunks and add it into your flour. Using a pastry cutter or a fork, cut the butter into the flour until it is the texture of coarse meal.
• Add about 3/4 cup of the cold milk into your flour and butter mixture and stir using a spoon or rubber spatula, not a whisk, just until the flour is incorporated, about 10-15 seconds. Add more milk as needed to bring the consistency to a very thick batter. You want it thin enough that it could not be rolled out like a dough, but still very thick. See the video above for the right consistency. I usually need 1 cup, but you may need a little more or a little less. Do not over-mix your batter or you will have tough biscuits.
• Using a 2 oz scoop or a 1/4 cup measuring cup, scoop out your biscuits into a cast iron skillet or onto a sheet pan lined with parchment paper.
• Place the biscuits in your preheated oven, and bake at 450 F (232 C) for 16-18 minutes, until golden brown.
• If desired, spoon melted butter over the top of the baked biscuits.
• Completely cooled biscuits can be wrapped in plastic wrap and stored in the freezer for up to 3 months. To refresh, warm in a 325 F (163 C) oven for about 10 minutes until warmed through.

SELF-RISING BISCUITS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450°F. Lightly grease cookie sheet with shortening or cooking spray. Place flour in large bowl. Cut in shortening, using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add milk; stir with fork until soft dough forms and mixture begins to pull away from sides of bowl.
• On lightly floured surface, knead dough just until smooth. Roll out dough to 1/2-inch thickness. Cut with floured 2-inch round cutter. Place biscuits with sides touching on cookie sheet.
• Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheet. Serve warm.

KING ARTHUR EASY SELF-RISING BISCUITS

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly flour a breadboard or a section of countertop.
• 2. Measure the flour into a mixing bowl.
• 3. Grate the cold butter into the flour. Or you can cut it into thin slices. (If you think about freezing the butter for 10-15 minutes first, it works even better.)
• 4. Make a well in the center of the flour-butter mixture and add the mix. Stir just until it starts to come together. (You might need a few extra tablespoons of milk.)
• 5. Move the biscuit dough to the floured area and fold it over a few time. Add a little more flour if the dough is too sticky, but not too much.
• 6. Pat the dough into a rectangle about 1/2 inch thick.
• 7. Cut out biscuits with a knife (my choice) or a biscuit cutter.
• 8. Place on an ungreased baking sheet. I put space between them, but others like them touching. Your choice!
• 9. Bake at 425 degrees F. until lightly browned, 10-12 minutes or so. Serve immediately and watch them disappear! =^..^=
