Buttermilk Biscuits 6
["2 c. all-purpose flour", "2 tsp. baking powder", "1/2 tsp. baking soda", "1/2 tsp. salt", "1/4 c. vegetable shortening", "3/4 c. buttermilk"]
["Preheat oven to 450\u00b0. In a large bowl, combine first 4 ingredients. Using a fork or pastry blender, cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse cornmeal. Blend in buttermilk until a soft dough is formed. Turn onto a lightly floured surface and knead lightly 7 or 8 times. Roll to 1/2-inch thickness and cut out with a floured biscuit cutter. Re-roll scraps and cut until all dough is used. Place biscuits on an ungreased cookie sheet about 1-inch apart and bake until golden, approximately 15 minutes. Makes about a dozen to a dozen and a half biscuits, depending on the size of the cutter."]
