   1 3/4  c             Flour
   2      ts            Double-acting baking powder
     1/2  ts            Baking soda
     1/2  ts            Salt
     1/2  ts            Sugar

   4      tb            Vegetable shortening -- cold
     2/3  c             Sour cream

In a bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt
and sugar.  Add the dill and the shortening; blend until it resembles
meal.  Stir in sour cream and milk; stir until it just forms a soft
sticky dough.  Drop by rounded tablespoons onto a buttered baking
sheet and bake in the middle of a preheated 425 Foven for 15 to 17
minutes or until pale golden.

Makes about 16 biscuits.
