Recipe Introduction


These biscuits are too good to be served only at breakfast. You can make the batter over the weekend and bake just what you need for evening meals during the week. The yeast makes them foolproof, and they deliciously dress up a weekday meal. The recipe is an old one.


List of Ingredients




� Oz. Pkg. Active Dry Yeast
2 Tablespoons Warm Water (100 Degrees)
5 Cups All-purpose or Whole Wheat Flour Plus Flour for Kneading
1 Teaspoon Salt
1 Teaspoon Baking Soda
3 Tablespoons Sugar
1 Cup Softened Butter or Vegetable Oil
2 Cups Buttermilk

Recipe



Dissolve yeast in warm water and set aside. In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, soda and sugar. Cut in butter or stir in oil. Make a well in center, and add buttermilk and yeast, incorporating them gradually into dough with a wooden spoon. Batter will be sticky.

Refrigerate dough in a tightly closed plastic bag or bowl until ready to use. Do not allow dough to rise.

To Bake: Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Knead dough, adding enough flour to keep it from sticking when it is rolled out. Roll to �-inch thickness and cut into desired shape. Bake on a greased pan 10 minutes.

YIELD: Makes a large batch of more than 3 dozen.
