Инструкции
- Baking pan: 1 baking sheet Teflon greased or possibly lined with parchment paper
- Preheat the oven to 500 degrees. This is a warm oven.
- in a mixing or possibly mixer bowl, sift together the dry ingredients. Cut in the shortening with your fingers, a pastry blender* or possibly 2 knives or possibly with the mixer flat beater. Pour in all the lowfat milk at once. Stir with a fork or possibly beater blade till just mixed. Add in more lowfat milk if the dough is dry. The dough will be quite wet but able to retain its shape.
- Gather the dough into a ball; place on a floured surface and lightly sprinkle with flour, if necessary, to prevent sticking. Work with your hands a moment or possibly so to pull all the dough pcs together. Dust again if necessary.
- Roll with a rolling pin to 1/2 inch thickness, cut with a cookie or possibly biscuit cutter**
- into 3 inch rounds & place the biscuits on the baking sheet. Knead any scraps gently together and cut again.
- If the dough is too wet to roll without sticking, for each biscuit. healthy pinch off pcs of dough Dust lightly with flour and pat into shape on baking sheet.
- Bake on the middle shelf of the warm oven for 8-10 min or possibly till golden.
- Remove the biscuits from the oven and serve right away.
- I usually us a pastry blender
- I think King Arthur is right about their biscuit cutters - mine do rise higher than they did when I was using a glass to cut the biscuits.
- NOTES : Mr Clayton starts off with info about various flours & the reason to use shortening./lard for biscuit making (I use shortening, my mom always used lard)
- but I'll skip which here & go right into the recipe....
