Quarantine Cooking - Southern Biscuits Recipe

[@gloriamahaffey5797]

Two weeks before my Mama died, she was still making scratch biscuits at 94. She made them every day since , she was 12. Grandma taught her how to fix them.

[@cindydbc12]

My grandmother did also till the day she died and I can see her sitting at the table drinking her coffee out of her saucer n not the out of her cup , golden memories

Gloria Mahaffey I know they were delicious and you have those beautiful memories. May God bless y'all, Gaye Furlow

[@superbizee1]

My mother learned how to make biscuits from her grandma in the 30’s, standing on a wood box. My mother always made buttermilk biscuits and she choked them off and rolled them. They were baked in a cast iron skillet. I have been learning to make those biscuits for 50 years.

[@melissacomer8404]

I discovered a trick with the butter instead of cutting it in. Put your buttermilk in the freezer to get really cold. Melt your butter. Then with a fork stir the almost frozen buttermilk while you pour the butter in and voila. Small butter nuggets that mix in great.

[@jamilaaaaa]

do you mix the buttermilk and melted butter? or which do you add first to the mixture? that sounds genius!

[@lishayost44]

@@jamilaaaaa seems like you pour the melted butter into the cold buttermilk as you stir the buttermilk. Then put the butter/buttermilk mixture into the flour.

I love making biscuits. My grandma taught me. She’s been gone now for 17 years and I still miss her all the time. But, I feel close to her when I’m making biscuits. I can still see her in the kitchen standing beside me directing me. She didn’t even have a recipe usually, she would just say, “about that much or that looks about right.” 😄 I am making biscuits tomorrow morning with sausage gravy. I rarely make gravy and biscuits anymore but I was raised eating down home southern cooking by a lovely southern grandmother. Thanks for making these videos Paula. My daughter and I have so enjoyed watching you!

[@kymdisney11]

This recipe reminded me of how I learned to make biscuits. Not having any southern roots, my idea of homemade biscuits meant I opened a tube of refrigerator biscuits and baked them myself. Well about a year ago, I watched a video on how to make REAL homemade biscuits. The KZbin channel was called Collard Valley Cooks and the woman making the biscuits was Tammy Nichols, also from Georgia. (You may have heard of Tammy. She was on Family Food Fight just last year and Tammy, her husband Chris and Tammy's brother Eddie came in 2nd place!). Anyway, like you, Tammy is a true southern cook and her recipes are delicious! In one of her recent videos she mentioned wanting to meet you, now that she and her husband live in St. Mary's. Georgia. She reminds me so much of you, Paula, and I've learned so much from both of you. I sure hope you have the opportunity to meet one another!

My Mama used to fry up cornbread patties in the skillet on top of the stove. Then she would break them up in a glass, and pour buttermilk over them. I never learn to like buttermilk, but regular milk works well!

I just have to tell y’all, that I’ve been enjoying Mrs Paula’s quarantine cookin so much, ever since the first one, along with everyone else! And I realized something very sweet and meaningful to me. I lost my southern Mama, in 2002. She was such a loving and kind, thoughtful southern belle, and she was only 67 when she went to heaven. I do miss her every day. But y’all, I watch Paula as she stirs her recipe ingredients, and I felt comforted and nostalgic, because she stirs exactly like my Mother did, when I watched her cook! And now, I realized that the way Paula Deen makes her biscuits, and kneads the dough, is the same as my Mama, as well. I’m grateful for your wonderful videos. ☺️❤️🙏🏼You’re kind, talented, yet, got kinda a feisty sense of humor, as my Mama did too, LOL!

Good Luck I had a DNA test done, found out I wasnt German, a drop if that, you might want to have a DNA test done to see what all you have, then hire someone to have a Pedigree Chart done, A Pedigree Chart goes back alot farther then a simple so called "Family Tree" & isnt Proffessionally done. I thought I had Jewish, German, & Black foot AND Cherokee Indian in me, I dont have any of that in me. Found out I have British in me, & I found out I have just a tiny bit of Arabian & some Italian, & 1/4 Afro American in me.

Mom would always baked her for a while, then take them out, pat them down and return them to finish baking. I tell you I loved those things. They were delicious!

[@mzgri]

I remember as a kid watching my grandma make homemade biscuits. She would put her flour in a glass bowl and make a well in the middle. Then she'd add a big scoop of lard in that well. Then she added a cup of buttermilk. She took her fingers and started mixing the milk and lard together and then slowly start to incorporate the flour into the lard mixture. She would roll the flour out and use a cup to cut the biscuits out. I always said they were a mile high! The tallest biscuits I've ever seen! We would take butter and white syrup and mix this together. When the biscuits came out of the oven, we would immediately cut them open and spread the sugar/butter mixture on both halves. Heaven indeed!

Would love to learn how you do fig preserves! A family member made strawberry fig preserves that were “ beyond delicious “!! We had a pear tree in the yard when I was young. The pear tree would be so loaded with fruit, my dad would have to put something under the limbs for support!! Otherwise the limbs would break and fall!! Thank you for bringing back memories I had not thought about in years. I enjoy your show!! Keep on cooking!!!!!😃🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Oh my goodness Paula! You make me laugh so hard! " This one over here is gonna be fatty armbuckle." 🤣 Good thing I wasn't drinking something, I'd have spit it out! Thanks so much for sharing this! I have made really good biscuits before but the last few times I have failed miserably. Can't figure out what went wrong! I will try your recipe!

[@carmelscott1706]

Oh, Paula! How I wish I knew you personally! You are just such a cheery, happy person and you brighten up my days with your recipes. It's like I said before, you remind me of my best friend who moved 3 hours away from our hometown, here in Ontario, Canada, several years ago. I could spend the day just listening to you and watching you cook. God Bless You.

"Butter y'all" on the butter LOL I love it

[@sherizebennett5324]

Everyone please notice she didn’t twist the cutter because that prevents the biscuits from rising properly. Thank you Ms Paula. I used to make mine with a glass and with shortening but since they removed the trans fat I only use butter. Thank you for sharing. ❤️

Mrs. Paula I know the chances of you seeing this comment are slim to none but I just have to say that I have missed you more’n you’ll know. Watching you at home...bring yourself...no network...no pomp and circumstance....just You has been a pure joy. I have never felt more welcomed, included and love as I have from these new videos. It’s an honor to be a guest in YOUR HOME! I feel like Aunt Peggy sitting in the kitchen watching you cook. If you can...keep it up! You have so many supporters that have never judged you or left your “side”. Sending much love from Arkansas!! Oh! And If you get tired of that square cast iron chicken fryer....I’ll drive to GA to get it! 🥰

[@AlwaysASouthernBelle]

Miss Paula Ann! I hear that crunch!!! Lord, have mercy! I'm not a biscuit baker, no one ever taught me, but I surely am a biscuit eater! I am now motivated to learn how to make a good biscuit so that I can share this tradition with my eldest daughter (who's a bread baker, can you believe it?!) as she prepares to go off to college this year. Grace and Peace, Love and Best dishes...

[@AR-dm7ze]

My mama always "choked off" meaning pinched off the dough instead of cutting them with a cutter. She also pressed her knuckles into the top of the biscuits. I believe the shape that created and the size was what deemed the name "Cat Head Biscuits".

[@mechelledelgado7728]

My Mama did the same. She did make the cat head biscuits that Mrs. Paula talked about!

[@susanoswalt1169]

My granny pinched hers also everything was done with her hands she would get aggravated with me trying to learn i could mix with my hands i used a fork and used Crisco not butter.lol

[@buffyl2674]

I miss my grandma! She made biscuits just like this. I will try them myself! 💖

[@bonniebrown6960]

I have been begging my mama to show me how to make biscuits for years and she never would show me . All she would say is , you just got to practice. Well , I understood that , but I still needed her to help me get started . My Granny could make the prettiest little biscuits . She had one of those wooden bowls too and she had little hands . I think that's why her biscuits turned out so pretty. She would roll her biscuits out by hand every time . She's passed away now and when she died I asked if I could have her pan that she baked her biscuits up in , so they gave it to me . My family and I call it the Granny pan . lol !! My daughter jokes with me and tells me she's gonna steal my Granny pan one of these days . HAHAHA...!! She is just kidding, but I told her if it's still in good condition when I pass away, she can have it . Thank you Miss Paula for showing me how to make biscuits !! I'm gonna try making me some today . I love you Miss Paula and Miss Teresa !! 😘❤

[@emilyb5106]

What a wonderful piece to have and cherish. I’m so glad you thought to ask for her pan, and got it. Often times people say _“I wish I would have asked for that ... “, “I should have taken that tool from papa, and that pot and spatula grandma asked me if I wanted when I was a little kid”. “I should have”_ and _“I wish I”_ are two things people find themselves saying the most after a family member passes. *Always enjoy the little things in life, because one day you will realize they were the big things.*

Hi Paula!! Those look delicious!!! So, I'm pushing 50 and have never attempted to make homemade biscuits!! It's just always so much easier to pop open a tube of Grands!! 😆 But I think it's due time I give it a try!! I know the end result will be well worth the extra effort!! Store bought could never compare to homemade!! Thank you for sharing!! I am a new subscriber to your channel and I look forward to watching more of your home cooking!!! ❤

[@shaunaferguson6102]

This was great! I make home made biscuit mix and keep it in the fridge to grab and throw buttermilk in whenever I need to whip some up! Grating the butter in makes cutting it in much easier! I found this recently and it's an armsaver lol! But you have to grate quick as it melts in your hand! I probably have 5 recipes I use depending on what I'm in the mood for 😆 And oh my yes! I made fog preserves for the first time last year off my first harvest from my tree....love it!!

[@lawrencebailey3008]

Nanny had a big wooden bowl in her cupboard, with a dishcloth over it. Inside was the flour and leavening ingredients. She would make a little hole in the center of the bowl to pour buttermilk into. Mix up how much flour she wanted and hand form the biscuits. I helped her make baby biscuits with a shot glass! She made a pan of biscuits every day, a pot of grits, some bacon and, and people going to work would make their own eggs when they got up. She made coffee in a percolator. The bacon and the percolator made the whole house smell good! This was in Chattanooga in 1948. Thank you for reading this. I am having to type with a right hand and a left thumb and pointer since a stroke!! Love Paula Deen. She is a hoot! I am 80 now, thought I would not last this long!If I thought I would last this long, I would have taken better care of myself! (Yogi Berra) My favorite was fried corn which is not fried. You all know what I mean, cutting the Silver Queen corn a couple of times and then scraping down all the cobs etc. I would rather have fried corn than anything, even cold! Bye bye.

One of my earliest memories is rolling biscuits with my Grandma. She always used bisquick and kept a big canister of it on her counter. Her biscuits were short and hard and nearly burnt, but that's how she loved them...lol. I enjoy a big, fat, fluffy biscuit though. ❤ Good memories

[@aimlesswriter959]

My Mamaw and Papaw used to just throw their flour down on the kitchen table, and they'd make their biscuits right there without a bowl. It was amazing to watch.
