How To make Southern Biscuits
2 1/2 c Sifted, self-rising flour
1/2 c Lard or shortening
1 c Buttermilk
From "A Treasury or Southern Baking" by Prudence Hilburn. HarperCollins; 1993. Preheat the oven to 475'F. Lightly grease a baking sheet. Put the flour in a large mixing bowl. Make a well in the center. Add the shortening (lard) and buttermilk. Start working the flour into the milk and shortening, squeezing the mixture through the fingers until a soft dough is formed. This will be a sticky dough. Lift the dough from the bowl and start folding, gently kneading or pressing with the fingertips, and turning the dough until it is no longer sticky. Pat the dough to a thickness of about 1/2". Cut with a 2" biscuit cutter. (Or instead, many Southern bakers prefer to pinch off small portions of dough to make balls about 1 1/2" in diameter. Roll balls in your palms, place on baking sheet, and press with knuckles to flatten slightly.) Place on baking sheet. If you want outside to be crispy, the biscuits should be placed about 1" apart. For a soft biscuit, place with edges touching. Bake for about 8 minutes, until lightly browned. Best served hot from the oven, with butter, if desired.

Southern Buttermilk Biscuits
Southern Buttermilk Biscuits
3 cups all-purpose flour
3 3/4 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 Tablespoons sugar
3/4 cup COLD butter, cubed
1 1/4 cups buttermilk
Preheat oven to 400°.
In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar. Cut in the very cold butter with two knives or a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the buttermilk until just combined. Do not over mix.
Turn onto a lightly floured surface. Sprinkle a little flour on top of the dough. Pat into a rectangle that’s about an inch thick. Cut out biscuits and place on a parchment paper lined pan with the sides of biscuits almost touching.
Bake 15 to 18 minutes or just until tops are lightly golden. Makes approximately 11 to 12 biscuits.

Formula L Biscuits
I have been using Southern Biscuit Mix Formula L for many years. Way before I ever started a you tube channel and I still rave about it now as much as I did then.
On my 2 ingredient biscuit video I mentioned that I normally used formula L and many of you have asked me about it so I figured I would take some time and show you what formula L is all about!
