We once, on our adventures this year, tasted the most delicious breakfast sandwiches, there were served on a cheddar and chive biscuit (made in the restaurant from scratch).
Results: Delicious! I used all organic ingredients, and cut the chives fresh from our herb garden.
The recipe uses a different method to incorporate the butter and makes a very light and fluffy dough (a tip from Cooks Illustrated?).
Note: The above biscuit recipe is online if you are interested: Ridiculously Easy Cheddar Chive Biscuits (The Café Sucre Farine)
Note 2: Be sure to flour your biscuit cutter (or it will stick a bit).

Oh, those biscuits look mouth watering good! We love a good biscuit here in the south! Mostly we just do basic biscuits with chunks of butter baked into them, and then more butter with jam, or last night we had home made beef stew over biscuits. A truly southern dish is sausage gravy over biscuits. Hubby loves that. I remember my Mama making a simple supper of creamed tuna over biscuits. Your cheddar chive biscuits really sound good. Thanks for celebrating biscuits today!
ReplyDeletePamela M. Steiner, I love sausage gravy over biscuits and I have not made that in a while. I keep telling my husband I need to upgrade my very old biscuit recipe to a fluffier biscuit. He claims they are okay, but I think it's time to try new recipes, since mine is from a magazine about 20 years ago, and not a family handed down recipe (basic biscuits). Glad you enjoyed this post.
DeleteBread I can do, bisquits are the challenge for me, I keep trying and trying. Maybe I should change how I view them? They are not the store bought light & fluffy made by machine, but are hand created with real ingreadients, so I should expect something different from the get gol Making that Lamb cake today, ( I hope) . waiting for butter to come to room temp.
ReplyDeleteFaith, this biscuit dough is very fluffy before rolling on a dough mat or table. I was surprised.
DeleteThanks for the link to the recipe, I will give it a try!!
ReplyDeleteFar Side of Fifty, you are welcome.
DeleteThat breakfast sandwich looks delicious! I wish my husband liked homemade biscuits, but he does not.
ReplyDeleteCarol, I prefer an English muffin, but these were fantastic. Thanks.
DeleteI am going to be trying this pretty soon!
ReplyDeleteAnne in the kitchen, please let me know if you like them. So far, it's been the only "new" biscuit recipe that we have decided to keep.
DeleteThat really looks good! I looked at the recipe and it really is a very different way to make them. I will give it a try. The chives in the garden are asking for it ;-)
ReplyDeleteWendy, I never heard of the process this recipe uses, and it did work out very nicely. I hope you enjoy them too.
