CLASSIC STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE
A good way to celebrate strawberry season. The texture of this not-too-sweet biscuit is light and fluffy inside and crisp outside. If you like ginger, you can make a variation of this biscuit by adding 2 tablespoons chopped crystalized ginger and 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger into the biscuit dough before baking.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
- Whisk together the flour, 2 tablespoons of the sugar, the baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Add the butter and work it into the flour, using your fingers or a pastry cutter, until the butter pieces are the size of small peas.
- Whisk together 1/3 cup of the cream with the egg and 1/3 cup water in a small bowl. Add to the dry mixture and stir with a wooden spoon until a stiff batter forms. Drop 6 mounds onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each biscuit. Brush with a bit of cream and sprinkle with sugar. Bake until golden brown, about 25 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet.
- While the biscuits bake and cool, combine the honey with 1/3 cup water and a pinch of salt in a small saucepot. Gently simmer, stirring, over medium heat until the honey is dissolved and the mixture is slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Cool, and then toss in a medium bowl with the strawberries and mint. If time allows, set aside for at least 30 minutes to allow the strawberries to release their juices.
- To assemble, whip the remaining 1 cup cream with the remaining 1 tablespoon sugar to soft peaks in a medium bowl. Split each biscuit and place the bottom half on a plate. Top evenly with the berries and accumulated juices and then the whipped cream. Place the top of the biscuit on the shortcake and garnish with fresh mint.
SKILLET STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE
Fresh strawberries are one of the sweetest harbingers of spring and summer. And strawberry shortcakes are most assuredly one of the best ways to celebrate the arrival of warmer, sunnier days. Of course, the petite, layered berry-biscuit stacks aren't exactly fuss-free. This impressive skillet strawberry shortcake recipe eliminates much of the hassle and mess of traditional strawberry shortcakes. Instead of flouring the counter and rolling and cutting out individual biscuits, you'll bake one giant skillet biscuit cake that's topped with macerated strawberries and whipped cream.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a 10-inch cast iron skillet; line the bottom with a round of parchment paper.
- Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt for shortcake together in a large mixing bowl. Whisk buttermilk, egg yolk, and vanilla together in a glass measuring cup until evenly combined; set aside.
- Scatter the butter pieces over the flour mixture. Use a rubbing motion with your fingertips and cut the butter into the flour mixture to distribute. Create a well in the center of the flour mixture. Pour the buttermilk mixture into the center of the well. Use a rubber spatula to mix the flour into the buttermilk mixture to form a moist, shaggy dough.
- Transfer the dough to the prepared skillet. Smooth the dough to distribute evenly in the pan. Press the sliced strawberries gently into the surface.
- Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and baked through, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes.
- To prepare the topping, stir together the quartered strawberries, sugar, and lemon zest in a medium mixing bowl to macerate.
- To prepare the whipped cream, combine whipping cream, sugar, and vanilla in a chilled mixing bowl. Using an electric mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, beat at medium speed until soft peaks form.
- Spoon the strawberries and juices over the shortcake. Serve with whipped cream.

Steps:
- Steep the cream for the chantilly: In a medium bowl or liquid measuring cup, stir together the heavy cream and Rooibos tea. Transfer to the refrigerator to steep for at least 2 hours, up to overnight
- While the cream steeps, macerate the strawberries: Use a small paring knife to stem and hull the strawberries, then halve or quarter lengthwise. Transfer to a large glass bowl and add the sugar, sumac, and salt. Stir with a wooden spoon to coat the berries. Let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes, until the berries soften and release their juices, then refrigerate until ready to use, up to overnight
- Make the biscuits: Line a 9 x 13-inch baking sheet (quarter sheet pan) with parchment paper.
- In a large glass bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, salt, and baking soda.
- Using the large holes on a box grater, grate the frozen butter directly into the flour mixture. Use your fingertips to gently toss the butter into the flour until coated. Slowly pour the buttermilk into the flour mixture and use a bowl scraper to gently mix until a shaggy mass forms. The dough will still look a little dry.
- Turn the dough out onto a clean surface and use a bench scraper to help press into a rough rectangle. Use a rolling pin to gently roll the dough into a roughly 8 x 10-inch rectangle. Fold the dough crosswise in thirds, like a letter, then turn the dough 90° and roll out again to a rectangle. Repeat folding and rolling for a total of 4 or 5 folds.
- Carefully transfer the dough onto the prepared baking sheet and freeze for 30 minutes (this will help the dough hydrate and bake evenly).
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Transfer the dough rectangle to a cutting board. Use a large chef's knife to trim the edges to make clean sides, reserving the scraps for another use. Cut the rectangle in half lengthwise and in thirds crosswise for 6 square biscuits. Place the biscuits back on the baking sheet, spacing 2 inches apart. Brush the top of each biscuit with the heavy cream and sprinkle with the turbinado sugar.
- Bake the biscuits until risen and golden brown around the edges, about 20 minutes. Remove the biscuits from the oven and immediately brush the top of each biscuit with the honey. (Microwave the honey for 10 seconds for easier brushing, if needed).
- Make the chantilly cream: Place a fine-mesh strainer over a tall, narrow container. Pour the steeped cream through the strainer into the container and discard the tea leaves.
- Add the powdered sugar to the strained cream. Blend with a stick blender until stiff peaks form, about 30 seconds.
- When ready to assemble, split the biscuits in half. Place a bottom half on a plate and spoon the chantilly cream over top. Spoon a generous amount of strawberries and syrup over the cream and finish with the top of the biscuit.
- Enjoy!
- RECIPE BY: Codii Lopez
- Chef's Note: The biscuits are best eaten the same day they are baked. If you don't think you will consume them all in one day, you can cut the dough and bake as many as you'd like, then wrap the remaining unbaked biscuits tightly in plastic wrap and freeze for up to 1 month. Unbaked biscuit dough should be stored in the freezer; storing in the refrigerator may cause the dough to oxidize and discolor.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 220C/fan 200C/gas 7 and lightly flour a baking sheet. Put the flour, butter, sugar, half of the vanilla seeds and ¼ tsp salt into the bowl of a food processor, then pulse until fine. Tip into a large bowl. Beat the milk, egg and a good squeeze of lemon together, then tip into the bowl and bring together with a knife, using a cutting action, until you have a clumpy dough. Finally bring together with your hands if you need to.
- Lightly flour the work surface, tip the dough onto it, then quickly shape into a smooth-ish disc. Using a rolling pin, pat out to 2cm thick. Cut out 8 rounds with a smooth 7cm cutter (you'll need to pinch together the trimmings). Glaze just the tops with beaten egg, transfer to the floured sheet, then bake for 10-12 mins until risen and golden, and they sound hollow when tapped on the bottom. Cool on a wire rack.
- Beat the remaining vanilla seeds and icing sugar into the clotted cream. It will get runnier at first, but keep beating and it will thicken again. To serve, slice the very top from each shortcake to give a flat surface, then spoon over about 1 tsp jam. Top with a good dollop of the vanilla clotted cream and finish with the strawberries.

Tips:
- For the best-tasting shortcake, use fresh, ripe strawberries.
- If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
- To make sure the shortcakes are cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the shortcakes are done.
- For a richer flavor, use heavy cream instead of milk in the whipped cream.
- If you're making the shortcakes ahead of time, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
