    I just made these biscuits. I didn't have the self rising flour. So I added three teaspoons of baking powder plus 1/4 tsp and 1 tsp salt. Also added 1 tsp of baking soda for the buttermilk. I never knew you had to fold the dough and roll it out 5 different times. They are the highest flakiest biscuits I've ever made. So delicious.

    The southern biscuits originated from scone recipes by the early Scottish settlers who came to the Southern U.S. in the 18th century. Tea was also brought over but because of how hot the climate is down south we always drink it cold and it’s called sweet tea. Even fried chicken recipe was brought over from Scotland to the Southern U.S.

    King Arthur’s self rising flour is also a low protein soft winter wheat flour, very close to White Lily, and easier to find and order if White Lily is not available locally. The flour is the real secret to tender southern biscuits. I second baking in cast iron, and if you bake them close together they’ll rise higher.

    Look at the ingredient list. If the White Lily is soft winter wheat it will say that somewhere on the package. This biscuit is all about protein content and AP is higher. I do believe that most self-rising flours are low protein soft winter wheat. However, some day you should try the America's Test Kitchen recipe using King Arthur's high protein AP flour with two sticks of butter. They come out incredibly crispy with a zillion layers. p.s. The internet is littered with flour protein charts. AP might be 9-11% whereas soft and self-rising is 6-8% protein. @@healthhollow7218

    If you are going to use self rising flour, I would add maybe a teaspoon of baking powder if you want them to rise really well. Otherwise, just use 2 1/2 cups all purpose white lily, 2 teaspoons BP, 1/2 teaspoon salt. And I always use a mixture of shortening and butter. The shortening is the best for flakiness and texture, and the butter for flavor. But that's just me.

I actually keep white Lilly, butter flavored shortening, and high fat cultured butter in the freezer, if it’s biscuit time you are ready before your oven is hot. Don’t forget the salt and a couple tsp of sugar. The technique in the video is right, also a thicker pan will improve results.

    Profound Greetings from Neptune using unsalted butter for all cooking and baking is a good practice for several reasons, it’s not that you don’t want salt, it’s that there is no standard for how much salt companies put in their butter. I believe jordans recommendation was for 2 tsp bp for 2 1/2 cups flour, 1can be sufficient if you have good experience cutting in fat and layering. The technique has as much effect on rise as having the right ingredient ratio. ( Test- record result- repeat) esp when baking.

    The way my grandmother taught me to stir the dough after you add the buttermilk was to use a fork. You stir "until the dough follows the fork around the bowl." 15 stirs sounds about right. Everything has to be sifted too including the flour you use on your work space. Dump some flour in a sifter and every time you need to add it needs to be sifted.

    FYI: She gave the recipe as she demonstrated. How hard is it to listen and write it down? 1 stick frozen butter, grated 2 1/2 cups White Lily self-rising flour 1 cup cold buttermilk Grate the frozen butter, gently mix into flour. Make a well into mixture, pour in buttermilk. Incorporate well, using approx. 15 stirs. Place mixture on floured surface, sprinkle flour on top. Flour rolling pin. Roll out, fold over mixture and repeat four more times. On the last fold over, roll out to 1/2 inch thickness. Flour biscuit cutter each time you cut into dough. Place biscuits on parchment lined pan, make sure they touch. Bake @ 475 degrees for 15 minutes.

    Just made these! Very delicious! I didn't have white lily flour so I subbed half cake flour and half AP flour and added 1-1/2 tsp baking powder and 1/2 tsp salt per cup (3-3/4 bp and 1-1/4 salt for this recipe). I also used powdered buttermilk. They didn't rise much but that's probably from the subs. Very tasty and satisfying! Definitely a keeper!

    I was a little askeered ta trust any woman that aint big n' fat - tryin' to convince me she knows anything about "Southern" cookin'. Turns out; she got it almost perfect. Everything she said and did = perfect - except maybe for try 1/3rd lard 2/3rds butter and add a little more salt (the self rising flour has some already) and a touch of sugar, not much (maybe a level teaspoon to this amount of flour) - 475 degrees F sounds a little bit hot. I go 400 - 450 depending on thickness of dough. A food processor helps quickly low-temp incorporate the fat into the flour.

    I finally got this down! With a few tweaks. I use a sick and a half of frozen butter. I cut the butter in half, and grate the long way on the grater. I spray the grater with cooking spray on the inside, so the butter doesn't stick to it and I grate the butter onto a plate that is also sprayed with cooking spray. There are a few little pieces left over that I melt to brush on the biscuits when they come out of the oven. I put the flour and butter mixture AND the buttermilk in the freezer for 15 minutes. When I roll the dough, I fold it over twice instead of in half. I do this about six times, then I roll it out and cut it. These biscuits freeze beautifully!!!!

    Satyanarayana Gavarasana Biscuit making is a technique that requires regularly making them all the time to keep up the ability to make a good biscuit is what I was told it's not like making a cake follow the recipe and it's fine. If a person don't do it all the time they can lose the ability to make a good biscuit. I don't think she mentioned the flour was self rising or maybe I'm wrong Lol. The recipe requires self rising. Ir can be any flour brand if you don't have white lily available.
