The ABCs of perfectly flaky Southern buttermilk biscuits It’s a primer, really. The science behind your ingredient and procedural choices. With pictures. http://food52.com/blog/11674-how-to-make-the-perfect-buttermilk-biscuits Food scientist/baking expert Shirley Corriher’s tender, light, fluffy “pat biscuit.” Very “hands on” for Your Jr. Chef. Batter/dough, “a wet mess,” is dumped by scoopful into a bowl of flour, passed gently back-and-forth in your hands creating a “skin” (13th slide of slideshow) and filling buttered baking pan. Commenter (DrCrankyPants) says to skip the “skin” step and just scoop into greased muffin/cupcake tins. Sugar adjustable to sweet or savory biscuits. http://food52.com/recipes/15432-shirley-corriher-s-touch-of-grace-biscuits French, not Southern – Crème Fraîche Biscuits.
