How to Make the Best Buttermilk Biscuits from Scratch
Today’s feature tip is from Pinch My Salt with How to Make the Best Buttermilk Biscuits from Scratch
This isn’t simply a recipe, it’s a full education on what flour to use and why, why the freshest ingredients are necessary, plus a bunch of biscuit baking tips. This is the complete “What You Need To Know” about biscuit making, whoa!
A few tips that caught my eye:
- Make sure your baking powder, baking soda, and/or self-rising flour are fresh! (see note at end of post)
- When you add the buttermilk, stir lightly! This can be done simply with a fork. You just want to get the dough to a point where the flour is all clumped together, not a smooth dough!
- Don’t re-roll the scraps. Since it is best to work the dough as little as possible, instead of gathering the scraps, re-rolling and cutting into biscuits, just form the scraps into biscuit shapes by hand. I usually end up with scraps to form two extra biscuits. They might look a little funny, but they rise as well as the others and they taste just as good!
Lots of great pictures included, nice job! And don’t mind me while I file this bad boy away for future reference ;)…Blue Cheese Burger…mmmmm.
