Buttermilk Biscuits
This is a new biscuit recipe I decided to try today. There is a cookbook that is all the rage among food bloggers: Baking from My Home to Yours by Dorie Greenspan. Instead of throwing down $40 for a cookbook, I got it from the library first to see if I was impressed with the recipes. This biscuit is different from my usual because it uses all butter, which gives it a very rich flavor and a crispier crust. This was my first try using my fingers to cut in the butter, but whatever method you use, be sure to leave enough bigger pieces of butter. As the biscuit bakes, it is those chunks that form flaky layers as the water in the butter steams.
