Tips For Making Melt-in-your-mouth Biscuits Recipe

Ingredients:

• make sure the shortening and baking powder or baking soda are fresh.
• measure the ingredients carefully to ensure your biscuits will rise well and be light and fluffy.
• cut the shortening into the flour using a pastry blender, two table knives, or a wire whisk until the mixture looks like fine crumbs. thoroughly blending the shortening and dry ingredients produces flaky biscuits
• to make biscuits the same thickness, roll the dough between 2 dowel rods or sticks, 1/2 inch thick and 14 inches long.
• push the biscuit cutter, dipped in flour, straight down into the dough for even-sized biscuits. cut biscuits as close together as possible.
• if you don''tsp have a biscuit cutter, use a sharp knife or use cookie cutters for fun shapes
