EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

For tender biscuits, knead only five times. That's just enough to make the dough smooth and well coated so it's no longer sticky.

Don't like to knead dough? Make drop biscuits by decreasing the Bisquick mix to 2 1/4 cups and skipping the kneading step. Drop dough by spoonfuls onto the cookie sheet, and bake for about 10 minutes. You'll get 10 drop biscuits.

Just tried these for dinner to accompany a very savory chowder. I wanted savory biscuits as well, so I doubled this recipe and when it called for 1 1/3 c. milk (doubled recipe) I measured 1 cup of good quality tomato salsa, then added enough mild to make 1 1/2 c. total. I used a little more milk than the recipe called for to make up for the thickness and less liquid of the salsa. The result was a tender, buttery, savory biscuit that the whole family raved over. Next time I will also add a little salt. I plan to eat the leftovers for breakfast with pepper jam!

Love Love love these Biscuits my family has them every night, my son thinks I'm the best cook in the world. My husband also agrees mainly because he can only make one thing which is boiled water.But I do have one tip instead of useing whole milk make a simple buttermilk bye adding a tablespoon of lemon juice to whole milk and wait five min. and there you go instant buttermilk to add in any recipe.
