BISCUITS

Sweet and Savory Southern Recipes for the All-American Kitchen

From the kitchen of our grandmothers to present-day biscuit-only shops, this sweet and savory food has come a long way in American culture.

M

ore than four hundred years ago, explorers of the New World carried a biscuit known as hardtack on their voyages. Hardtack was made from flour, water, and sometimes salt and was sturdy t and long lasting, making it suitable for hard, treacherous journeys. The Th composition and texture of the hardtack biscuit changed at the hands of the Jamestown settlers who had access to three necessary h ingredients that would transform the difficult-to-bite and blandi tasting hardtack into a soft, delicious biscuit: soft winter wheat, fat t in i the form of lard from pigs, and milk or buttermilk from cows.

• Targeted promotion to the cooking community • Co-op available

Today’s version of biscuits barely resembles its predecessor. Our T preference is for soft, billowy, flaky, and delicious biscuits that can be p eaten alone, used as a vehicle for fillings and toppings, or incorporated as an ingredient in a recipe. While biscuits are wildly popular r in our culture, they are known to intimidate home cooks. In Biscuits, Jackie Garvin overcame her decades-long biscuit-making failures by research and trial and error and has emerged to write a cookbook that simplifies and demystifies biscuit baking and highlights the prevalence of biscuits throughout the United States. The more than seventy recipes in this collection include biscuit pudding with bourbon sauce, buttermilk biscuits with country ham filling, pimento cheese biscuits, and peach cobbler with sweet biscuit topping. Also included are recipes for multiple gravies, toppings, and biscuit “cousins” such as scones and dumplings.
