I was thinking today I would make some traditional Honey Biscuits with DS. DH has been away for a week & I'm needing some things to fill the weekend. Anywho, I got up this morning & dug out the recipe my MIL gave to me years ago that I have never read & it's really vague :rolleyes:
It tells me I need to let the dough sit overnight....is this so? And it just says mix, but is it not a dough? Do I need to use my dough hook in my mix master to mix it? Help I have no idea LOL :wall:
Do you mean biscuits like honey jumbles? If so, then yes the dough needs to rest, the recipe I use says an hour in the fridge. The dough is easy enough mixed with a big wooden spoon, then finish off by hand on a floured surface till no longer sticky. It does not need to be overly kneaded, so I would not bother with a dough hook.
There is a really great recipe for Honey Jumble biscuits in this months issue of Super Food Ideas (August 2009). Page 77.
If you don't get around to buying a copy, give it a couple of months - all their recipes seem to go online eventually (and even though I buy the mags I usually just get them off line because it takes less time to search their website than to go through all my mags and remember where each recipe came from).
Hope that helps :)
