How Do You Make Homemade Biscuit Mix?
This is a great recipe for making a ton of homemade biscuit mix. You can cut it in half if it’s too much for you to use in a six month period. Put the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder and salt) into a flour sieve or sifter. Sift them together into a large bowl. Add the shortening one spoonful at a time, cutting it in. This means that you take two knives or forks and cut at the shortening crossways until it is well blended. Mix this up in a processor. Mix and sift the ingredients first. You can do the cutting in of the shortening in a food processor but you need to watch it closely too see that it doesn’t overmix. It should look much like commercial biscuit mixes but it’ll be moister looking. This mix will keep up to six months if you store it in a very tightly sealed container. If it’s hot or sticky, store it in the refrigerator. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees to make biscuits. Use 2 cups of the biscuit mix to make 10 medium-sized biscuits. Add 2/3 cup of mild and mix it together
