Tuesdays with Dorie: Baking with Julia - 63rd installment. The recipe is Baking Powder Biscuits.
Well, it's hard to go wrong with a Marion Cunningham recipe for a quick bread (although I still question the sunken muffins from a previous installment :-). Her Breakfast Book is one of my staple cookbooks.
This recipe was quite easy, and the results were great. It seemed to be a traditional method of rubbing in the butter, and then adding the liquid. Butter and gentle handling really make the biscuits better. I don't usually put them next to each other, but it makes the sides softer, which was nice.
Forget the artistic photos - here's what really happens to baked goods around here.... |
