Light, Flaky NO FAIL Biscuits EVERYTIME

[@peggyperry2359]

I have tried I don't know how many times to make biscuits and they always end up in the trash. They were always falling apart and just not any good....I love to cook and I had some self-rising flour and buttermilk and thought I would give these a try....THEY WERE DELICIOUS....I told my husband that I was going to try biscuits one more time and he said "Uh Oh"...well he tried them...he ate 1........and then went back for 2 more....Please try them if you have never been able to make biscuits....you won't be disappointed. Thank you Hands That Cook....

[@Handsthatcook]

Hi Peggy, I'm so glad you can finally make biscuits using this recipe! It works just like the title says Light flaky no fail biscuits everytime! I'm so happy for you! Thank you for taking the time to let me know. TFW God bless and stay safe

YES!!! Finally, someone mentions putting the flour butter mix into the freezer to make the butter cold and this does make a huge difference in the quality of the biscuits.

As a son of the south, I grew up eating homemade biscuits prepared by relatives in the rural part of southeastern Virginia, in the area I referred to as "the country" whenever we visited from our suburban home. As a child, I remember fondly how delicious those biscuits were, often served with fresh butter beans, corn and country ham that were grown locally and prepared by my grandmother. I recently decided I wanted to attempt making some biscuits from scratch myself. So it was that I went looking for recipes on KZbin. After findng your video, I decided to try out your recipe and technique. I must say I was truly shocked that my very first attempt turned out great! Since that first attempt, I have experimented with several other recipes, but your recipe really is the best recipe I have found. I have made them at least 3 times now, and they truly were no-fail biscuits every time! Thanks for sharing your technique!

This biscuit recipe is the best ever. It really is no-fail, and it's easy to just keep a couple sticks of butter in the freezer and then pull one out whenever you want to make a batch. My friends are so impressed with my biscuit making skills now, and it's all thanks to you! :D

I have never made biscuits before in my life, and I’m so glad that I choose this recipe to be my first!! These biscuits taste just like Hardees!! They’re perfect!!! The only thing different that I had to do is use a bit more buttermilk because of the flour I was using, my dough wasn’t getting sticky enough.

This is the same as the recipe I learned as a child. My mother told me that if I didn't learn to make biscuits and bread I would never get a husband. She told my brothers if they didn't learn how to make bread their hair would fall out. People wonder how my Mom managed to get 6 sons and a daughter to learn to cook. She lied to us.

I made this recipe for the first time today (2018 July 19). It worked as advertised. For years I'd tried to make Southern biscuits with ordinary flour, but the result was always tough biscuits. So I finally ordered White Lily self-rising flour via Walmart's on-line purchasing service, I bought real buttermilk at the local supermarket, and the result was real Southern biscuits.

Does this recipe call for the use of salted butter? Or should we use unsalted butter? Or does matter? I am using self-rising flour and do not want to serve overly salty biscuits. Thanks for any help you can provide!

[@txbruno1]

Made these today with my 10 y.o. niece for a family breakfast, easy to make and turned out really good. I had to add a little extra buttermilk to the mix as the dough was a little dry with just the 1 cup. Cooked for 13.5 minutes and they came out perfect. Sent a couple home with my mom so she could enjoy the tasty goodness later.

annie b You've already tried and made them? Good for you! I knew they'd turn out perfect IF you followed the directions. BTW, did you have a soft winter wheat flour or use a regular self rising flour? Annie, I'm proud of you for having the courage to at least try this. So many people won't. Freeze the unbaked biscuits if you don't want to bake them all at once. Simply freeze on a baking sheet and then into a zip lock bag with instructions. When you take them out of the freezer, let them sit on the baking sheet until the oven heats up to 475, then proceed as the instructions say.

I had given up, until I watched your video. I followed it to the tee, except parchment paper, I greased my cookie sheet with olive oil. Other than that I did exactly what you told me to do! My biscuit where kissing on the pan, had risen like they were reaching for the top shelf and had more layer's than a Farrah Fawcett hairdo. I also made buttermilk gravy, I added milk, water and buttermilk and ma'am! It was delicious. My sister and I were taken back to Mother's kitchen table. So thank you for the recipe and the memory.

Ranita Todd Hi Ranita, I'm so glad I can be of some help. When you want to use a frozen biscuit, just put them on the baking sheet frozen and leave them out while your oven heats up. They are just as delicious baked from frozen as when I made them fresh. The sound you hear is my burglar alarm. Sam is in and out constantly. I'm so sorry it upsets your dog. I'm an animal lover too so I sympathize with you. I'll try to get him to stop going in and out of the house when I make a video.....but I can't make any promises that he'll quit.

[@charleswilson4598]

I live in Indiana and I buy White Lilly self rising flour here at Kroger. However, I have compared White Lilly to other available flours. White Lilly has 2% protein level, and as you say it is made from soft winter wheat. King Arthur self rising flour is also 2 % protein and made from soft winter wheat. King Arthur says they reformulated their self rising flour a couple of years ago. I have not used the KA self rising because White Lilly is cheaper, but it seems like KA self rising flour would make good light biscuits also. A few days later I was shopping at Mejers ( competitor of Walmart ) and I checked some other brands of self rising flour, and there were about four that had a 2% or 3% protein level. I am not a flour expert but just for discussion, if I could not find White Lilly, I would look for a self rising flour with a 2% or 3% protein level and use that. Just my opinion. Your biscuits look really good.

[@Handsthatcook]

+Charlie Wilson Hi Charlie, I'm not a flour expert either and have always used white lily...I have bought KA but honestly cannot tell the difference. That can be said (IMHO) about cheaper flours also...I can't tell the difference in regular or sr flour other than the soft winter wheat variety. In my opinion, it's all marketing. It doesn't matter WHO mills the flour (my opinion) I've bought flour from Aldi and can't tell a difference so the only reason I use a soft winter wheat flour, no matter what brand, is to make biscuits and pie crust. I agree with you! Thanks for watching and commenting Charlie.

I can only find Gold Medal self rising flour here where i live in NY and I think they may come better when I try that flour.. Today I used regular flour with Baking Powder added and Baking Soda.. I was SO HAPPY AND PROUD that I finally made Homemade Biscuits!!! And so wAs my family..But I want to improve them.. pThank you so much!.. I love your channel.

I love it when anyone tries this recipe and make good biscuits...so happy to hear from you! I know how I felt when I finally made good biscuits after 2 years of supervision from my Southern girlfriend who had been making biscuits all her life....and it really took me that long to learn...how frustrated she must have been but she hung in there with me!! Thank you for letting me know you had success and welcome to my channel!!! TFW God Bless, Linda

Thank you so much for sharing! The biscuits are delicious! 😋Just what I'm looking for in a biscuit. This was my first attempt and it was so easy! No more Pillsbury biscuits for my husband and I....I never really liked them anyway but I tolerated them lol.

Thank you I am teaching my five year old grand daughter how to make biscuits. We make oat meal cookies and use my 50 year old china with linen napkins! The art of cooking should be passed on! Setting a table should Not be a lost skill and we can teach this so they will hopefully pass it on Again thank you!

[@Handsthatcook]

Absolutely true Denice...you go girl! What a lucky granddaughter you have to have such a wonderful grandmother to teach her!! TFW God Bless, Linda

Also, if it hasn't been mentioned in the comments below already...you can substitute the buttermilk with 1c cow's milk with 2tbsp white vinegar. It will coagulate & thicken. Old school buttermilk is also actually not white at all...if you leave milk out for a few days in a humid environment, the curds will separate from the whey. The clear liquid at the bottom is the actual buttermilk. The buttermilk we purchase at the grocery store is cultured the same way as yogurt and pasteurized which is why it is white. Great recipe. Same as mine except I use shortening instead of butter in the dough & still brush the tops with it before, during, & after the baking process. ❤❤❤😋

Thanks a lot for share this way to get buttermilk, here in México it is not possible to get it, Ussually I make bisckets or scones a little bit different, and I love them. I will try this way.

[@codysagod]

@@mariadej.torresdelatorre1345 I’m in Canada, and I never see buttermilk here either. Here’s another substitute: For whatever amount I need, I pour half of that amount of whole milk in a measuring cup, then add an equal amount of sour cream and stir. Let it stand for at least 5 minutes and stir again.

[@mariadej.torresdelatorre1345]

@@codysagod thanks, your recipe sounds good, I will try it.

[@carlabattle7014]

I have found that 2 cups of self rising flour and 1 cup of heavy whipping cream make some very tasty and fluffy biscuits. Just don't over work the mix

[@metroteacher]

I thought it was 2 cups of heavy cream to 2 cups of flour?

[@LoveFirstYou]

@@metroteacher Try it her way and see if it works for you. :) Her way works for her.

[@Tonithenightowl]

If you don't have self rising flour, simply replace 1 and a half teaspoons of reg flour with baking powder per cup. Or just add the teaspoon and a half of baking powder to a cup of flour. For the half cup you would use 3/4 t. baking powder. By the time you add your buttermilk and extra flour to roll it out, it won't matter which way you did it. Technique is what's important. :o)
