Hi Linda;

This Biscuits are part of our "sweet bread" "pan de dulce" in Mexico,

since

"pan dulce" but not biscuits, not "old fashion biscuits"


my Mamy was a kid, Biscuits are found in any backery in Mexico, and even
there is a house "Bisquets Obregon", that now has a lot of branches all

over

Mexico city and some other states.

If they came from another country, they have been adopted to our Mexican
kitchen long ago.


What part of Mexico are you from?


If this group as far as I understand is to discuss and share Mexican food
recipes.


Yes it is, but IMHO "old fashion biscuits" don't qualify..


I had problems with this recipe long ago and I asked in this very same

group

about the recipe and Shelora, Arturo and Jerry helped me to figure out my
problem.

Why you find this recipe out of place? Why you ask someone to post in
another group? just because you consider this recipe is not Mexican food?
But, what about the others reading this group?


Maybe you misread my post....I did not ask someone to post in another group.
I merely suggested there might be a more appropriate group for "old
fashioned biscuits"
Go back and read again.


By the way, I hope now you answer my post, since I have made some

questions

to you before and you never answer.


Sorry, I don't recall that.

BTW, get out your Mexican cookbooks, and post a recipe for "old fashion
biscuits" none of mine (and I
have quite a few) have a recipe.

Linda

Irma.

Look Mr. A1, I'm not trying to be rude or anything, but there are

several

groups that would be more appropriate for this recipe.
Try rec.food.cooking or alt.recipes, which are a couple. Honestly "Old
Fashion Biscuites" are somewhat out of place here.

Old Fashion Biscuits

2 cups All-Purpose flour
2 Tbls. baking powder
1/2 Tsp. salt
1/2 cup lard
2/3 cup buttermilk

Preheat oven to 450 F.
Put 2 Tbls. lard in a skillet and get it hot; grease the sides.
Stir together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Cut in the lard until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Make a well in the center.
Pour the buttermilk in all at once.
Stir just until dough clings together.
Knead gently on a lightly floured surface for 10-12 strokes.
Roll or pat to 1/2-1 inch thickness.
Cut with a 2 1/2 inch biscuit cutter or big mouth jar, dipping the

cutter

into flour before each cut.
Transfer to the hot greased skillet, covering each biscuit with a thin
coating of melted lard.
Bake in a 450 F. oven for 10-15 minutes, or until golden.
Makes: 10-12 biscuits.
Serve steaming hot with sweet butter and your favorite jam.

And while the mouth is at it, he can put up his recipe for flan and not
some non-duplicable generalitites.
