Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 450* In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Using your fingertips, rub butter and shortening into dry ingredients until mixture looks like crumbs. (the faster the better, you don't want the fats to melt.) Make a well in the center and pour in the chilled buttermilk. Stir just until the dough comes together. The dough will be very sticky. Turn dough onto floured surface, dust top with flour and gently fold dough over onto itself 5 or 6 times. Press into a 1-inch thick round. Cut out biscuits with a 2-inch cutter, being sure to push straight down through the dough. Place biscuits on baking sheet so that they just touch. Reform scrap dough, working it as little as possible and continue cutting. This single recipe makes about 6 biscuits if they are cut 1" thick. I usually double the recipe. Bake until biscuits are tall and light gold on top, about 15 - 20 minutes.
Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the final product.
- Follow the recipe carefully. Don't skip any steps or substitute ingredients unless you know what you're doing.
- Don't overwork the dough. Overworking the dough will make the biscuits tough.
- Bake the biscuits in a hot oven. This will help them to rise and brown properly.
- Serve the biscuits warm. Buttermilk biscuits are best when they're fresh out of the oven.
Conclusion:
Buttermilk biscuits are a delicious and versatile Southern staple. They can be served with gravy, butter, honey, or jam, or used to make sandwiches or sliders. With a little practice, you can make perfect buttermilk biscuits at home. So what are you waiting for? Give this recipe a try today!
