      Title: Harriet's Southern Biscuits
 Categories: Breads, Breakfast
      Yield: 8 Servings
 
      1 c  + 2 tb Flour
      1 ts Baking powder
    1/2 ts Salt
    1/4 ts Baking soda
      2 tb Shortening or lard
    1/2 c  Buttermilk
      1 tb Shortening or lard; for
           - frying pan
 
  Mix the dry ingredients together in a mixing bowl.
  Blend in the shortening until the mixture is coarse
  and grainy. Harriet uses a fork, but I have better
  luck with a pastry blender. Then, using a fork, stir
  in the buttermilk. Do not overmix.
  
  Put on a floured board and knead just a few times. Pat
  out the dough to about 1/2" thick. Cut with a biscuit
  cutter or a glass. (Flour the cutter.) Do not handle
  the dough too much, or it will get tough.
  
  Use a heavy black frying pan. Place the 1 tablespoon
  of shortening in the frying pan and put the frying pan
  in the oven for about 7 minutes. Remove the pan from
  the oven and place the biscuits in the pan. Turn each
  once in the oil and bake the biscuits at 500ºF/260ºC
  for 10 minutes, or until light brown.
