I don't have any family. It's just me so when I watch you all hanging around the kitchen, I feel like I'm part of the family enjoying family time. Thank you.

[@travelingwiththeragans]

I have family but not like this but watching these makes me want to be there so bad, I love Paula!!

[@ruthlong6876]

Ahhh, just wanted to tell you that I have family, and I am usually all alone to, I feel ya, that's a big part of why I do you tube, let my imagination go, anyway, know you have a friend 👍🙏❤️😎

[@debbiecoyne]

When I was 10 I begged my mom for a cat. My neighbors cat had a litter. We took the orange tabby & named him pumpkin. He was a big boy like his dad but his tail wasn't as fluffy as your kitty. He lived to be almost 18 years old. He passed in 1989 & I still miss him.

[@OldFordTaurus]

I wish our pet friends could live forever

[@Jane_Dow]

My Great Grandmother made biscuits for almost every meal. But when she was told by her doctor she could only have 1 biscuit per meal. So she did exactly what the doctor said only 1 biscuit a meal. But she Warned everybody that the 1 Big biscuit in the middle of the pan was HER's !! An from what I was told, She Meant It !!! :~)

[@ginasellers4212]

🤣😆 that's brilliant

[@pruenster]

LOL! I love your Great Grandma!

[@yvonnegrivas5589]

Lol i dont blame her

[@ninib4309]

Oh Miss Paula, I watched you for years and enjoyed every episode but I have to say these “quarantine and beyond” videos are hands down my favorite! I love how your sweet personality shines through every time we get to be with you. Please don’t ever change and please keep us in your daily life, just as we love you in ours. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home with us to. We all love you!❤️

[@Momma-angela]

Very well said!!! I agree 💯

[@dougandsuepflum7526]

Amen!

[@kerkroberts8875]

Ask a black person how ‘sweet’ she is

[@Alabamafan2]

My husband just restored my great grandmother's Hoosier cabinet ( she was from Pheba, MS) and the flour sifter still works. It now sits in my kitchen and I love looking at it because it reminds me of her! ❤️

[@lisalewis5664]

Even more than the cooking, I just love watching your videos because I feel like I'm spending time with a long-time friend.

[@nancyj9892]

What I would give to come sit and talk and eat and spend a weekend with you. My heart aches for my 'grandmother's ways'. She was my best friend and taught me everything I know about cooking. Thank you sweet Paula😘

[@liliabenavides4052]

Same here. Gran took sas from no one.

[@caroljulian6505]

Next time greated the cold butter with a greater and it will mix in a lot easier and you don’t need a pastry cutter.

[@billie4907]

I was wondering when someone was going to mention about grating your butter. Great video.

[@sharond4436]

My grandmother & mother always pricked the biscuits with a fork 3 times. I continue this habit. Never made them without doing this, so I don't know if the texture would be different or not! Don't want my biscuits ruined!🤣 Thank you, Paula, for continuing to do these videos.

[@prb5541]

Paula, so nice to see from this video that you are in your “mode.” I am 69 years of age. I learned to cut dough the way you have done; with a knife and fork, and then with your fingers to play with the dough and get close to a “pea size “ texture. Just to say, you are in your mode…and I am in the mode to make butter milk biscuits the way I did so long ago…that helped me get “ in touch” with my food. in addition, I was told that to have the oven on, place your baking pan in the oven with baking renderings (the biscuits. were to be dredged in the bacon renderings on both sides) and then baked. I loved your concentrated presence.

[@marilouo4321]

wonderful lesson that a cook book could never teach.

[@alexdiaz4181]

Hello Marilou how are you doing today?

[@heather81280]

We were down in Tennessee about 10 years ago (we’re from Indiana) and my husband’s grandmother taught me how to make her homemade biscuits. They’re almost exactly the same except while I’m mixing and kneading the dough my cast iron is in the oven with bacon grease getting nice and hot. Then instead of rolling them out (she rolled hers but we prefer ours dropped) I use a spoon and drop them in the cast iron. My family enjoys the crispy tops that are on the biscuit and then brushed with melted butter!

[@marycaparro6883]

Those biscuits look heavenly Paula. Also I just wanted to say that whenever I watch your videos, I always feel like I am right in the kitchen with you, sitting on the opposite side of the counter, watching you cook and bake. I really enjoy your videos - thank you!

[@shirlynssleeve4661]

Love that Paula let us into her home & see a day in the life. Only thing missing today was sausage gravy!

[@amywise7568]

I love that to and my husband sometimes puts coffee in his gravy to it was so good

[@sarahf.469]

Me too! I watch every video and love that she’s back at my favorite house. Feels like home. 💗

[@daniski2229]

Paula, thank you so much for sharing your home and recipes. I have been a huge fan for at least 25-30 years. My grandmother and I loved watching you and Emeril long before the fancy cameras and lights. We loved recreating some of your recipes together. My grandmother past about 10 yrs ago and watching you always brings me back to that happy place. Every Christmas morning for the last 15 or so years, we have your French Toast Casserole. My children start talking about it around this time every year. Love and Best dishes Paula❤️

[@Nannipat72]

I'm going to have to look for that one. 😃

[@tammichadwell1277]

Reminds me of watching my grandmas spoiling us with her love of sharing.The same things I was taught. Thank you.❤

[@patriciabrawner3717]

Enjoyed your video, my Mother made the best biscuits in the world, I think. She never used a recipe she just mixed them up patted them out a little & cut them. I try to make them like she did, but mine never taste like hers, think I will try this recipe. Seeing you make the biscuits brought back precious memories of my Mother making biscuits. Thanks for sharing.

[@goodmorningwithcoreyandcar973]

I love guava paste and cheddar cheese on my biscuits. Though I use the kind you hit to open. You make it look easy and delicious. I might try making it again from scratch. Thank you Mrs. Paula. ♥️

[@rhondakanderson1120]

My Momma Knight had a big wooden flour bowl & sifter she kept it in a bag in a kitchen drawer. She never put sugar in her biscuits or cornbread. She made a/b 20 buttermilk biscuits every day of her life unless she was very sick which wasn't very often.She made the best biscuits I've ever eat. Anyone was always Welcome to eat at her house She Always cooked breakfast & supper everyday. She' had fruit trees grape vines & made jellies jams & always had honey sorghum molasses & butter to eat with her biscuits & big skillet of sausage gravy & if she cooked country ham she had red eye gravy. & eggs. I eat breakfast with her 3-4 times a week. It was always ready at 6am. She always had big veggie gardens & had pecan trees & walnut trees n her big pretty yard. She made the most Delicious Pecan pies ❣️ I LOVE watching you cook Paula. You cook so much like my Grandmother & Aunt's & my Mother which they taught her to cook. Thank You for Sharing All your Delicious cooking with us❣️♥️♥️🥰😋

[@toniearnest1861]

I love Buttermilk Biscuits !!! My Mother also did the knuckle thing and so do I...I think it is a southern thing ...LOL !!!

[@heidid5275]

Oh my goodness, that had me salivating. You could just see how tender and fluffy they were, hot out of the oven. Great recipe! 👍❤

[@cynthiaharrell2144]

Love Pumpkin the cat and homemade buttermilk biscuits!

[@jolenemcgee5321]

I just got me a jar of apple butter.... those look amazing! so good to see you, Aunt Peggy❤Love you, and Paula!

[@Christie-gp2cy]

Paula, now these videos are similar to your originals. LOVE the simple homemade recipes with just you by yourself. LOVE all your great recipes. God's blessings to all XO

[@chastity5401]

Thanks so much for sharing those air fryer biscuits! I bought me one of Mrs. Paula’s air fryers exactly like the blue one in her kitchen after eyeing hers for several episodes. I struggle sometimes with what all to put in it and never thought about biscuits until now. Thanks so much for sharing! Keep the love and best dishes coming. 😘

[@kayrackley4698]

I love my paula deen air fryer. We use it alot. I love making those pizzas she showed one day with the naan flatbread. I fix salmon patties, chicken, grilled cheese, birds eye fried green beans, fried catfish, so many possibilities. They are so good and without all the grease. Hope you enjoy your airfryer

[@deloresmiller6468]

The reason for pressing the top is to make the approximate the same height to cause them to bake evenly and not rise so high in the center is each biscuit. 😍

[@rubyhorton9466]

You put your butter in the freezer, then you use your GRATER to grate the butter in the flour then you don't need a pastry cutter.

[@rubyhorton9466]

A pastry cutter, cuts in the butter into flour, I did not say a biscuit cutter !!

[@kayrackley4698]

Those biscuits look heavenly delicious. Nothing better than a good old fashioned biscuit. Something I have never been good at making. I need to get some buttermilk and try to make some. I usually just make mayonnaise biscuits. They are good too. Thanks for showing how to make these Paula. Love and Best Dishes.

[@threeleft16890]

I just want to say thank you for all the recipes you shared over the years. Your biggest fan.....

[@belindahughes6986]

I just love your videos. Nothing better than a good warm homemade biscuit. A little tip I got was to put your cat iron pan in the oven for about 10 minutes before putting your biscuits in it. Grease it with butter then add the biscuits. It gives them a great crunchy bottom.

[@JoeHollywood22]

grate your cold butter on a box grater. these look delicious!!

[@sibkiss2009]

I thought about that too, but in comments I read the big cubes help the fluffiness.

[@JoeHollywood22]

@@sibkiss2009 interesting

[@misswinnie4.8]

"Now dont be afraid of a biscuit..." that was so sweet.

[@jisson57]

I need to try your biscuit mix. I bet it's delicious.

[@kd5773]

I always struggled with biscuits until I saw an earlier YT video by Paula. She taught me how to make biscuits! Thank you Paula!

[@te2952]

My grandmother after cutting out her biscuits & putting them in the skillet, she poured just a little buttermilk into her hands, rubbed her hands together, and patted the top of all her biscuits right before she put them in the oven to bake. When they came right out of the oven she used a stick of butter leaving the paper on the bottom of the stick butter, peeling the paper off the top, and rubbed the butter right on her biscuits bottom then top! So good too!

[@carolm6952]

Thank you Paula! I so enjoy watching you and learning new recipes! I hope you don't ever stop making these videos. I hope someday Covid goes away so you will have meet and greets again! I would love to meet you! You are the best!❤😊

[@lorettachampion4473]

My kids loved my home made biscuits. I'm gonna try yours. Bless you Paula Deen!

[@lazydragon9819]

Beautiful biscuit and a beautiful Lady Miss Paula!

[@autumnstarrs]

Those are the lightest, fluffiest biscuits I've ever seen. 😋

[@mickid3705]

I love homemade biscuits. Nothing like them

[@grasen6300]

You are absolutely wonderful. So sweet I had given up on the rocks (biscuits) I make and after watching you I am going to try again and if it is not good I will do what you said and throw it away and try again. You are such an awesome lady. Thank you for all you do.

[@Nannipat72]

This is something I'd really like to perfect

[@rosepetals3752]

I cannot wait to make them for my family. Love your new kitchen, it's beautiful. 😊

[@maurisapoore4280]

I went to Amazon and bought a blending fork it is the bomb!!

[@hals1fineday]

County biscuits should be served with country gravy which you can entirely make while the biscuits are cooking..and pure cane ribbon syrup..and butter..of course.

[@genafarinholt5926]

Family lore has it that my mother as a child (an only) went visiting with her mother and was sent out into the kitchen to play. Well, she made a “flour garden” with the flour in the Hoosier cabinet. Sifted it all out and made peaks & valleys and put her dolly in to play. This was in Alabama!

[@jisson57]

My husband and I went to your family kitchen in Pigeon Forge and fell in LOVE with your cheese biscuits. They taste even better than Red Lobsters. I'll be making these and your cheese biscuits soon. Love you Paula ❤❤

[@billie-leelawhon3941]

Well Mrs. Paula. After watching your video I went to my Hoosier Cabinet and got my White Lily out and made a pan of biscuits. So wonderful to see Aunt Peggy❤. God bless you and your family 🙏❤😚

[@Dollyfan1977]

Paula get you a blending fork, they're so much easier to work with than a pastry cutter. I think White Lily flower makes the best tasting biscuits.

[@randallcromer66]

Thank you for sharing this video because it helped me remember my Mom's biscuits and how good they were. I miss her so much.

[@lenoraenfinger3118]

Love you Paula. I like butter most of the time, but also love strawberry freezer preserves on them. Yummy

Ms Paula, I have a pastry fork, and I love them. They come in a two pack for 15 bucks on Amazon, and the set I’ve got have black handles. Great Fellowship Ms Paula

[@juliewoodgate1099]

Paula,you remind me so much of my Mother,her Laughter, smile and your fun hummer,my Mother was from Lake city,Florida. My Othet has been gone now 14 years and when I'm watching your Show....it's like seeing my Mother and thank you for that.

[@alexdiaz4181]

Hello Julie how are you doing today???

[@robingastonia9192]

I bought a pastry fork on Amazon and it is amazing. I even use it to turn my fried chicken over in deep fat It is one of the best kitchen gadgets I have bought. I use it for other things too, and it is great for blending butter and flour. MMM the biscuits look so good.

[@rachelripley758]

Paula after several failed attempts (we had the wrong kind of flour)we just got done eating (more like devouring)the most wonderfully fluffy and tasty biscuit thanks to your recipe and guidance. My husband was born and raised in Georgia while I bounced back and forth from AZ to Chicago and so eating biscuits was not normal for me. I never watched any of my family members eat them let alone make them so I was completely green behind the ears but if you tasted one of these freshly baked biscuits him and I made you would never know that. I'm hooked now... moving forward no more canned biscuits in this home !!!

[@carley_1129]

Man you know it’s finna be good when there’s a whole bowl-a-butter on the counter before anything else 😂

[@sheliagolden4675]

Those looked so easy and good. Thanks Paula for the video.

[@michaelpaulett6847]

That's a great idea Paula, roll the dough into little balls and rolling them into your cinnamon sugar, what a great idea?

[@mkivy]

Boy I tell you what there’s nothing like good old fashion classic flower mix with everything in it that you need. It’s got everything from your Saul and your making about her all the things you have to add sometimes is a little bit of baking soda I love them that it’s ready to go no just add whatever you want. Thank you Miss Paul and Miss Peggy

[@martna1]

Regarding the knuckle-prints, I saw an episode of Alton Brown (Food Network TV) and he indicated that you flatten the biscuits with your knuckles so they will rise evenly. He said if you didn't then you end up with 'dome' shaped biscuits -- something about them heating from the sides first then the middle. It's funny to hear people talk about making things a certain way and when challenged, will say, "...well that's the way grandmother made them!". Reply

[@stacey5925]

Yes that is correct. It has to do with the CO2 and how the fat in the biscuit melts and releases, so no dome shape if you knuckle your biscuits! Kind of like the theory with puff pastry. I enjoyed watching Alton Brown because he researched the science of food....very interesting.

[@ritabrunetti381]

I've just recently mastered making biscuits. I don't know what I was afraid of. I made them when I made sausage and gravy. Yummy!! Be well everyone.

Could you use the leftover biscuit dough to make dumplings in a soup?

Absolutely! Biscuit dough is great for dumplings. And if you don't have homemade biscuit dough and you want dumplings in your soup, the can biscuits work very well too!

Really love watching your videos love you paula and your recipes I cook alot of your recipes and love them all

[@moonshinerman]

Ms Paula....I have the answer to your question. I used to make biscuits some years ago and what used to happen was while they were baking they would rise up to a point where the air bubble inside would break and the biscuits would fall like a cake and end up looking like cookies. It took me a while but I found that if you press your thumb (or knuckle) in the top of the biscuit before baking they rise up nice and don't fall. Thank you for the video and you are just as beautiful as ever! BTW......I call my favorite kitty "biscuit head". I also use a cast iron skillet as well.

[@lujuanahastings3310]

I love to put a nice piece of Country Ham on my homemade biscuit!!
