--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1      Tbsp          Salt
     1/2  Tbsp          Baking Powder
     1/4  Tsp           Baking Soda -- or less to taste
   2 1/3  C             Flour
   1      Qt            Buttermilk -- or more as needed
   2                    Eggs
     1/2  Lb            Butter

Preheat oven to 425°.  Mix dry ingredients.  Add buttermilk until about the
consistency of pancake batter.  Beat eggs and add to batter.    Batter must
be slightly thinner than pancake batter and beaten very smooth.  Melt
butter.  Put 1/2 tsp. in each  hole of small muffin tins.  Heat on surface
until butter is very hot.  Spoon 1 tbsp. of batter into each hole and bake
for 20 minutes.  Turn out and serve immediately with your favorite jam or
preserves.

Makes 5 dozen biscuits.
