Recipe: Home Restaurant Cheddar Biscuits (using buttermilk)

Breads - Assorted
CHEDDAR BISCUITS

"We can't imagine any meal that wouldn't be improved by the addition of these rich, savory biscuits."

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, chilled, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 1/2 cups coarsely shredded sharp Cheddar cheese*
1 cup cold buttermilk

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Add butter; rub it in with your fingertips until mixture resembles coarse meal. Toss in Cheddar.

Gradually stir in buttermilk, mixing only until a dough is formed.

Divide dough into 8 to 10 pieces and roughly shape each piece into a ball. Place biscuits 2 inches apart on an ungreased baking sheet.

Bake until golden, about 30 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to let cool.

*Cheddar, a medium-firm, sharp-tasting cheese, originated in England, but some of the world's best Cheddar is now made on this continent, in Canada and in Oregon and in Vermont. If your Cheddar is orange instead of white, it was probably tinted with annatto, a spice typically used in Latin American dishes.

Makes 8 to 10 biscuits
