TIPS FOR BETTER BISCUITS



Tips for Better Biscuits image

This isn't so much a recipe as my technique I learned many years ago. I come from a long line of bad-biscuit makers and I was determined to overcome it. In fact, my Mom was famous for her "Don't Go Near The Water Biscuits." The break came when I tried drop biscuits. That was the last time I ever made them because I learned the secret to consistent quality: moisture control. I then learned that fat plays an important but minor role. You can even make okay biscuits without it, but the outside will be crusty and character is lacking....but the type of fat used is not important. I then switched to oil. It's healthier and much easier. But you can cut in shortening or butter if you wish. Below is a variation on just one recipe. Many will work, just increase the liquid. Wet dough in the mixing bowl (similar to drop biscuits) is the real secret.

Categories     Breads

Time 25m

Yield 12 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups self-rising flour (like Martha White)
1/3 cup vegetable oil (or other oil)
1 cup milk or 1 cup buttermilk
1/2 teaspoon baking soda (if buttermilk is used)
self-rising flour, for surface

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 450°F.
  • In large bowl, add flour and make a well in the center for mixing.
  • Add oil to the well.
  • Stir the well as you add buttermilk mixing in more and more flour until all the flour is involved and the dough is sticky, gummy and on the verge of being "too wet". You may need less than 1 cup for this.
  • Turn out the dough onto a floured surface and with flour on your hands make into a very soft dough, sprinkling a little extra self-rising flour over it all as needed until no longer sticky.
  • Try not to work the dough at all or any more than necessary for it to be consistent throughout.
  • Pat out dough to 1/2-inch thickness.
  • Cut with floured 2 1/2-inch round cutter. Cut without twisting the biscuit cutter. Place on cookie sheet or greased cast iron skillet.
  • Bake at 450°F for 12 to 14 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Brush with melted butter.
  • Serve warm.

TIPS FOR BETTER BISCUITS | KING ARTHUR BAKING
tips-for-better-biscuits-king-arthur-baking image

From kingarthurbaking.com
  • Use cold ingredients. In our world, flaky is a good word. To achieve perfect, separate layers in your biscuits, you need to start with very cold fats (usually butter or shortening).
  • Be gentle! So your ingredients are chilled, you're hungry, and you're ready to make biscuits. As you start mixing and stirring, be sure to use a light and gentle touch.
  • Stay fresh. When baking lofty, airy biscuits, you need some way to encourage them to rise. Most often, baking powder acts as the leavening agent.
  • Sharpen up. Many recipes, like our Savory Cheddar Cheese Biscuits, use a biscuit cutter to slice out rounds of dough. For non-drop biscuits, it's crucial to use a sharp-edged circle (a biscuit cutter, cookie cutter, or sharp-edged drinking glass) to slice your dough.
  • A secret for beginner bakers. If the idea of cutting in butter and carefully kneading dough makes you nervous, we've got you covered with our Never-Fail Biscuit recipe.

2020-01-21 The fat must be cold. Fat forms small pockets throughout the biscuit dough, and as the fat melts in the oven, the CO2 from the leavening agent takes its place so the biscuits rise. If the fat melts or softens before the biscuits bake, the biscuits will be hard and flat because there's no place for the CO2 to go except out of the biscuits.
