Biscuits I

Cookbook | Recipes | Ingredients | Equipment | Techniques | Cookbook Disambiguation Pages | Recipes | Bread Biscuits are a traditional bread from the American South and a staple of soul food. This recipe is in the Yankee style, which is to say, it contains an egg and the end result is less dependent on your pastry technique. These biscuits are tall, light, and sturdy. They are less salty than many store-bought mixes. They taste good plain or with butter, honey, jam, or sausage/ham gravy. Because they are sturdy, this recipe is particularly well-suited for making a sandwich. Try splitting the biscuit open and putting a fried egg inside, or filling it with cold deli meats and other sandwich fixings. For the more tender Southern-style (eggless) version, try rich biscuits. If you are trying to substitute gluten-free flour, you might have better luck with this recipe, because the egg will help hold the dough together.
