Parsley and caraway seeds make these flavorful biscuits a great choice for a St. Patrick's Day dinner, but make them any time of the year.
Cook Time: 12 minutes
Total Time: 12 minutes
Ingredients:
- 4 cups sifted all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 cup shortening
- 2 1/2 teaspoons caraway seed
- 1/4 cup fresh minced parsley
- 1 1/2 cups buttermilk
- 2 egg yolks
- 1 tablespoon water
Preparation:
Sift together into a bowl, the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Cut in the shortening until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add caraway seed, parsley, and buttermilk. Stir or toss with a fork until dry ingredients are just moistened. Transfer to a lightly floured surface and knead lightly 6 times. Roll or pat to a 3/4-inch thickness and cut out with a 2-inch round cutter. Place dough rounds on ungreased baking sheet about 1 inch apart. Using scissors, snip a 1-inch cross about 1/4 inch deep in top of each biscuit. Beat egg yolks with the water; brush mixture on each biscuit. Bake at 450° for 10 to 12 minutes, until golden brown. Serve hot, with butter.
