Florences' 1950s kitchen
"Mama's biscuit recipe that she wrote herself,
she made excellent bread and pie crust without measuring or a recipe, she
just wrote that down for me." Natalie Bauman
Biscuit Recipe 2 (cups) flour 1 tablespoon baking powder 1 teaspoon salt 1/4 cup shortening 2/3rds to 3/4ths cup milk
425 (degree oven till done)
"Cut" the shortening into the flour/salt/bakingpowder
mixture, using knives or a pastry knife Add the milk, it will look
like a raggy mess but it will roll out on a floured board Cut biscuits
out and put on ungreased baking sheet Can brush with melted
butter before baking Some people add a couple of tablespoons of sugar
to their dough mix.
