INSTRUCTIONS
EMERIL LIVE SHOW #EMIA27 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. In a
mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients and blend thoroughly. Cream
in the shortening with your fingers or a fork, until the mixture
resembles coarse crumbs. Add the buttermilk a little at a time and,
using your hands or a fork, work it in just until it's thoroughly
incorporated and you have a smooth ball of dough. Do not overwork or
overhandle the dough. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough
with a rolling pin to a circle about 1/2-inch thick. Using a small
round cookie cutter or the rim of a shot glass, press out twelve
1-inch rounds. Place the biscuits on a baking sheet and bake until
golden brown, about 15 minutes. Yield: 1 dozen biscuits Posted to
