Here’s a basic biscuit receipe. Sift 2 cups of flour, 1 teaspoon of salt
and 1 tablespoon of baking powder. Cut in 1/4 cup of shortning (or butter).
Mix in the buttermilk until the consistency is right. (less than a 1/4 cup
usually) The dough should hold it’s form, but not be sticky. If it is
sticky add more flour. Roll out and cut with a biscuit cutter. Place on an
ungreased baking sheet. The buscuits should touch if you want tall fluffy
ones or space evenly for flat biscuits. Bake at 375 for about 10-20 min.
