How To Perfect Your Buttermilk Biscuit Recipe | Southern Living

[@southernbelle6108]

I've been cooking biscuits for about 60 years now this recipe is a fine recipe you just need to cook it in a cast iron skillet bless everyone watching

Forget the cast iron skillet though - most people don't have that laying around. Works fine on a non-stick cookie sheet!

[@marymontes6788]

I just made these biscuits. I didn't have the self rising flour. So I added three teaspoons of baking powder plus 1/4 tsp and 1 tsp salt. Also added 1 tsp of baking soda for the buttermilk. I never knew you had to fold the dough and roll it out 5 different times. They are the highest flakiest biscuits I've ever made. So delicious.

[@marcosvialpando1391]

[@sv-um9nh]

can we use wheat flour instead?

[@leopoldbuttersstotch73]

[@veevee111]

You have to use baking powder for the rise. Also, baking powder does expire and will no longer work so use fresh baking powder and flour as well as a pinch of baking soda. ​@@leopoldbuttersstotch73

Bill Horward. What is your opinion on Martha White self rising flour for biscuit. I could not find White Lily in a small bag so grabbed the Martha White.

We had homemade rolls, waffles, pancakes, you name it, but not biscuits so I'm going to give this recipe a try,,,,with the Martha White..

[@ArmoredProtagonist999]

The southern biscuits originated from scone recipes by the early Scottish settlers who came to the Southern U.S. in the 18th century. Tea was also brought over but because of how hot the climate is down south we always drink it cold and it’s called sweet tea. Even fried chicken recipe was brought over from Scotland to the Southern U.S.

[@jeancobb67]

This is the best tasting biscuit I have eaten. I didn’t have enough White Lily self-rising flour, so had to make my own self-rising flour. I used unbleached all purpose flour and added the needed ingredients. I had to stop myself from eating a third biscuit. I rarely eat more than one biscuit, but these are so good!

White Lilly makes all the difference. This recipe is amazing.

[@redpassion]

FYI: She gave the recipe as she demonstrated. How hard is it to listen and write it down? 1 stick frozen butter, grated 2 1/2 cups White Lily self-rising flour 1 cup cold buttermilk Grate the frozen butter, gently mix into flour. Make a well into mixture, pour in buttermilk. Incorporate well, using approx. 15 stirs. Place mixture on floured surface, sprinkle flour on top. Flour rolling pin. Roll out, fold over mixture and repeat four more times. On the last fold over, roll out to 1/2 inch thickness. Flour biscuit cutter each time you cut into dough. Place biscuits on parchment lined pan, make sure they touch. Bake @ 475 degrees for 15 minutes.

Satyanarayana Gavarasana Biscuit making is a technique that requires regularly making them all the time to keep up the ability to make a good biscuit is what I was told it's not like making a cake follow the recipe and it's fine. If a person don't do it all the time they can lose the ability to make a good biscuit. I don't think she mentioned the flour was self rising or maybe I'm wrong Lol. The recipe requires self rising. Ir can be any flour brand if you don't have white lily available.

King Arthur’s self rising flour is also a low protein soft winter wheat flour, very close to White Lily, and easier to find and order if White Lily is not available locally. The flour is the real secret to tender southern biscuits. I second baking in cast iron, and if you bake them close together they’ll rise higher.

[@healthhollow7218]

Can I use a store brand self riding flour? Or will the texture be completely different. I also have white Lily all purpose if that would be better. I can add the necessary ingredients like BP etc. not sure which one would be closest to this recipe though.

[@mamasaidsew4843]

Thanks. Didn't know King Arthur's was a good substitute. Never tried cast iron so I guess that'll be my next thing.

[@kirsten07734]

@@healthhollow7218 I’d use the White Lily AP flour and add the BP over using store brand self rising flour. The magic of White Lily isn’t the additions but the special wheat it is made from.

[@steve1253]

Look at the ingredient list. If the White Lily is soft winter wheat it will say that somewhere on the package. This biscuit is all about protein content and AP is higher. I do believe that most self-rising flours are low protein soft winter wheat. However, some day you should try the America's Test Kitchen recipe using King Arthur's high protein AP flour with two sticks of butter. They come out incredibly crispy with a zillion layers. p.s. The internet is littered with flour protein charts. AP might be 9-11% whereas soft and self-rising is 6-8% protein. @@healthhollow7218

[@seywhut2985]

The way my grandmother taught me to stir the dough after you add the buttermilk was to use a fork. You stir "until the dough follows the fork around the bowl." 15 stirs sounds about right. Everything has to be sifted too including the flour you use on your work space. Dump some flour in a sifter and every time you need to add it needs to be sifted.

[@jordanw6918]

If you are going to use self rising flour, I would add maybe a teaspoon of baking powder if you want them to rise really well. Otherwise, just use 2 1/2 cups all purpose white lily, 2 teaspoons BP, 1/2 teaspoon salt. And I always use a mixture of shortening and butter. The shortening is the best for flakiness and texture, and the butter for flavor. But that's just me.

[@mamasaidsew4843]

jordan w you're right about the rise factor. I tried this recipe many times only to be disappointed by no real rise. Today I added 1/2 teaspoon baking soda and my family went bananas for them. Perfect go to recipe that's quick and easy. TFS

[@jochefgwyn9822]

jordan w jordan is exactly right here, shortening will improve rise and flake, and butter is essential for flavor. I actually keep white Lilly, butter flavored shortening, and high fat cultured butter in the freezer, if it’s biscuit time you are ready before your oven is hot. Don’t forget the salt and a couple tsp of sugar. The technique in the video is right, also a thicker pan will improve results.

[@profoundgreetingsfromneptune]

I am planning on using self-rising flour. Would you happen to know if I should use unsalted butter with that? Or should I use salted butter? Also, is jordan w right when recommending the use of 2 1/2 C self-rising flour + 1 tsp baking powder for better rise? Thanks for any insight you can provide.

[@jochefgwyn9822]

Profound Greetings from Neptune using unsalted butter for all cooking and baking is a good practice for several reasons, it’s not that you don’t want salt, it’s that there is no standard for how much salt companies put in their butter. I believe jordans recommendation was for 2 tsp bp for 2 1/2 cups flour, 1can be sufficient if you have good experience cutting in fat and layering. The technique has as much effect on rise as having the right ingredient ratio. ( Test- record result- repeat) esp when baking.

This technique is spot on. Im a beginner baker, and this is my second time trying to make biscuits. First try, the recipe said to bake it at 375, mixing butter n flour using food processor. I ended up with bready texture. I didnt have that self rising flour so i used ap flour + baking powder. I also didnt have buttermilk, i used milk+ vinegar. It still turns out amazing. First i was thinking 475 was too hot, turn out, it's perfect. I got crispy crust, flaky inside and soft. Wow.

Putting the butter and cake flour in a food processor is much easier, and a faster, better way to do it. :)

These were delicious.. Made these for my family and we ate them up. I added a little honey to the biscuit mixture and they came out great. I also didn't have whole milk, I only had evaporated milk add some vinegar to make it taste like butter milk. Still came out yummy

Can I mix the butter and flour the night before and leave it in the freezer overnight?

[@johnniekilgore3499]

That should be alright just put it in a sealed container.
