Biscuit Baking Mix
 

Biscuit Baking Mix

10 cup flour
1/3 cup baking powder
1 Tbsp salt
2 cup shortening

This mix is used as the basis for several recipes. It keeps well in the
pantry so it makes it easy to make shortcake, biscuits or top off a
casserole.
Sift dry ingredients together in a large bowl. With two knives or a
pastryblender, add the shortening in spoonfuls and cut it in until the
mixture is the texture of coarse cornmeal. If you are using a food
processor, start and stop it often during processing and watch carefully.
Keep mix stored in a labelled, tightly closed container. It will keep
on the pantry shelf for 1 to 6 months in dry weather. In hot or
humid weather, it's a good idea to keep the mix in the fridge.
Yield: about 10 cups of mix
