Sour Dough Biscuits

This is a picture from the Polynesian Cultural Center on  Oahu.  He is making Coconut Milk from the coconuts.  Very interesting and to much work for me.  It was fun to see.  I just open a can and enjoy.  I will post some coconut recipes tomorrow.

It is a great day!!!!   I have been thinking what to post for a couple of days.  Cookies sound great, I found a butterfinger brownie that sounds great.  Well, what to choose.  I have been thinking of bread also.  I have a sour dough start that Tatton made he used grapes and let it ferment for a month.   Well, I have had the start now for 6 years.  Wow, how time flies.  I found this recipe for biscuits.  They are great/!  Biscuits here i come.

2 c. sour dough batter
 2 1/4 c. flour
1 T. baking powder
2 T. sugar  ( i use a little more)
 1/2 t. salt
 1/2 t. soda
 1/4 c. shortening
 1/2 c. milk

Mix dry ingredients together and cut in shortening.  Mix milk in with sourdough start.  Pour start and milk on the dry ingredients ,mix well.   Knead or  fold over in thirds and press down and do again.  for 30 seconds or so till mixed in. (If dough is sticky I add a lilttle flour as i am folding ) Roll out 1/2 - 3/4 inch  cut in shape place on greased pan and allow to rise 1 hour.  Bake 400   for 15 min or till browned.
