Homemade Biscuits

                       

I am on a biscuit mission, to enhance side options for breakfast sandwiches, soup dinners and even get togethers.  These were Cheddar and Chive Biscuits.

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!

Pamela 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.

Bread 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.

Faith, this biscuit dough is very fluffy before rolling on a dough mat or table. I was surprised.

That breakfast sandwich looks delicious! I wish my husband liked homemade biscuits, but he does not.

Carol, I prefer an English muffin, but these were fantastic. Thanks.

Anne 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.

That 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 ;-)

Wendy, I never heard of the process this recipe uses, and it did work out very nicely. I hope you enjoy them too.

Apples and Tomatoes Oh My!

  The early morning weather here has been downright chilly.  One morning it was 42 degrees.  Flower beds have been weeded.  The herb garden is next in line, but I do need to figure out what to do with all the rosemary plants I planted in the actual vegetable garden.  I have not mastered keeping them alive all winter indoors.  They will not survive the winter if left outside. Did any of my blog writing followers locate a better "blog" platform online?  Just curious if anyone is moving from blogger.

Under the Weather ~ What's Growing?

  I have not been around in blogland much, due to being under the weather after I pushed myself way to far one day.  I have to remember we cannot do it all in one day.  Thank goodness for teas and tinctures, and healing foods (and rest).  We are feeling better. As for our blogs being used for advertising on many websites, and so forth (I can't see any other reason for the source of views: howstuffworks, dominospizza, mayoclinic {not the blog readers interested in my actual blog}) the numbers continue to climb.  I have not found a way to "opt" out either.  If any of you find a new way to avoid this, blog elsewhere, find a new platform etc, please be sure to share.   If your blog has ads, you are are not going to complain, ha ha!  You are probably making a bucko-bucks with all these visitors to your blog. Okay, back to the update post . . .

16 Weeks Until Christmas

  It's not hard to believe that we are traveling closer to the winter holidays.  I'm trying to focus on enjoying every single day until then, but I am fitting in a few snippets of holiday preparing.  Christmas is my favorite holiday of the year.  It's hard to believe it's the last day of August. I have not yet gotten rid of the links to all the advertisers using my blog posts, but again, still working on it. However, my profile has gone from my blog, and while I am in settings, it is not able to add as a "gadget" to the blog.  Weird things are happening.   Google had a data breach recently as well, so gmail users were advised to change passwords.  Not sure what else is going on, but just in case you are wondering why my "profile" is not on my blog any longer.   Okay, back to the Christmas countdown post . . .
