Time 28m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 pinch salt
1 ½ teaspoons white sugar
1 ½ teaspoons dried thyme
1 ½ teaspoons dried savory
1 teaspoon kelp powder
1 tablespoon dried parsley
1 tablespoon dried basil
⅓ cup unsalted butter, softened
¾ cup buttermilk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, thyme, savory, kelp, parsley, and basil in a large bowl.
  • Cut in the butter with a knife or pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Drizzle the buttermilk slowly over the flour mixture while tossing lightly with a fork, just until the flour mixture is moistened. Turn the dough out onto a floured board, and knead 4 to 5 times. Pat the dough into a circle, 3/4 inch thick, and cut biscuits with a 2 inch cookie cutter. Place biscuits 2 inches apart on a baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Serve warm.

Time 40m

Yield Makes 9 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 stick plus 2 tablespoons cold, unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes, plus more for serving
1/3 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley leaves
1 tablespoon chopped chives
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard, plus more for serving
1 cup buttermilk, plus more for brushing
Sliced ham, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda for 30 seconds. Toss butter into dry mixture to evenly coat, then press between your fingers to create flower-petal shapes and return to bowl. Stir in herbs.
  • Whisk mustard into buttermilk, then slowly drizzle over flour-butter mixture (to evenly distribute) while stirring with a fork. Stop stirring when dough begins to form but mixture is still crumbly. Transfer to center of a parchment-lined baking sheet. Gather dough with your hands, pressing firmly to bind, and flatten it into a 6-by-10-inch rectangle. Lift parchment along a short end of dough and fold in half, forming a 6-by-5-inch rectangle. Turn dough 90 degrees; gently reflatten to 6 by 10 inches. Fold in half again and flatten slightly into a 6-inch square.
  • To keep things easy, form the dough on the same tray it's baked on. Cut it into thirds in both directions with a large, sharp knife, to form 9 biscuits. Brush tops with buttermilk. Bake until puffed, golden brown on top, and hollow-sounding when tapped on bottom, 16 to 18 minutes. Transfer to a kitchen towel-lined basket; cover to keep warm. Serve with mustard and ham.

Tips:

  • Use cold buttermilk and butter. This will help create a flaky, tender biscuit.
  • Grate the butter into the flour mixture. This will help distribute the butter evenly and create a more uniform biscuit.
  • Mix the dough until it just comes together. Overmixing will make the biscuits tough.
  • Roll the dough out to a thickness of 1/2 inch. If the dough is too thick, the biscuits will be dense and undercooked.
  • Cut the biscuits out with a biscuit cutter or a glass. Make sure the biscuits are close together so they rise evenly.
  • Bake the biscuits in a hot oven. This will help them rise quickly and create a golden brown crust.
  • Serve the biscuits warm with butter, honey, or jam.

Conclusion:

These herb buttermilk biscuits are a delicious and easy-to-make addition to any meal. They are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. The combination of herbs and buttermilk gives them a unique flavor that is sure to please everyone.
