Assembly
Directions:
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour,
Buttermilk Blend, baking powder, sugar, salt and
baking soda. Use a pastry blender to cut the
shortening into the sifted ingredients thoroughly,
until the mixture resembles the texture of corn meal.
Freezing Directions:
Put each recipe of biscuit mix in a freezer bag.
Each recipe equals 3 C. of mix. Seal, label and
freeze.
Serving Directions:
Remove the bag of biscuit mix from the freezer,
and allow it to come to room temperature. Dump the mix
into a large bowl. Add the water and mix until dough
is mostly combined. Do not over mix. Lightly flour the
counter, and turn the dough out onto the counter.
Lightly knead it 20 to 25 times. Roll or pat the dough
to a half-inch thickness. Cut with a floured biscuit
cutter. Place close together on an un-greased cookie
sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes at 450 degrees.
Tammy’s Comments:
This recipe is just like what Grandma used to
make! The SACO Buttermilk Blend is powdered
buttermilk. It’s in the baking aisle of my local
grocery, in a 12 oz. round cardboard can, near the
powdered and canned milk. I got this recipe from SACO
foods website, at
www.sacofood.com. I modified the directions to
work for freezer cooking. It’s quick and easy, and
makes light biscuits!
