QUICK SCALLION BISCUITS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Combine the milk, zest and lemon juice in a tall glass. Refrigerate and allow to curdle for 10 to 15 minutes, until thick. Sift together the flour, a generous pinch of salt, and baking soda into a medium bowl. Using your fingers gently mix in the butter until an even, but grainy texture is reached, being careful not to melt the butter as you work. Add the soured milk and scallions and stir until the dough comes together. (Dough will be sticky.) Gather the dough into a ball, and refrigerate 15 to 20 minutes, until chilled.
- Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead 3 to 4 times until the dough is smooth. For fluffy biscuits do not over knead the dough! Roll out the dough to about 3/4-inch thickness. Cut with a 3-inch pastry ring or the top of a glass. Arrange the biscuits on a parchment-lined sheet pan. Allow the biscuits to slightly touch and gently adhere when baked. Bake until biscuits are golden, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer to a bread basket or bowl and serve.

Steps:
- In a cast-iron skillet, break up the ground sausage into small chunks and brown over medium-high heat until sausage is cooked through and no longer pink.
- Reduce heat to medium-low. Sprinkle the flour over the sausage and stir until the flour has absorbed all of the sausage fat and is lightly coating the sausage pieces.
- Add the milk in several increments while whisking.
- Add thyme, sage, cayenne pepper, black pepper, and salt.
- Cook the gravy for 5-10 minutes, frequently stirring until the gravy thickens. Let cool.
- Fill a well-greased ice cube tray with the gravy. (If you do not have an ice cube tray, pour the gravy onto a greased parchment-lined ½ cookie sheet.)
- Freeze for 20 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
- With your thumb, make a divot in the center of each biscuit.
- Place a cube of gravy into each divot.
- Fold the sides of the biscuit dough around the gravy cube pinching the dough together at the top.
- Turn the dough balls upside down. With the palm of your hand, roll the biscuit ball around in a clockwise motion on your table surface to smooth out the dough balls.
- Place the biscuits on a parchment lined ½ cookie sheet making sure the dough seams are on the bottom. Brush with egg wash.
- Bake for 20-30 minutes.
- Enjoy!

CAJUN SHRIMP AND SAUSAGE GRAVY OVER BISCUITS
A few years back I was visiting friends in LA, and after a long day of fishing, a wonderful dinner with fresh fish of course, the next day we all woke up famished. Well ... biscuits with sausage gravy was the request, but I wanted to do something a little cajun. Our last vacation day, so it was clean out the fridge, but still trying to make something that resembled biscuits with sausage gravy. After a quick run to a local quick stop to get some cream and biscuits we were set. Well this is the creation, and it is really good. The only thing I have changed since I returned is that I love to add some scallions right at the end for a fresh flavor, but otherwise, pretty much the same. Make this for a breakfast/brunch for family this holiday season. And if you don't want to use andouille, use a spicy or mild sausage along with the cajun spices. And if you bake, make your own biscuits. I'm just not much of a baker, so I take a short cut and use a canned biscuit. We served this with some scrambled eggs and Bloody Mary's (it was the last day of vacation). But skip the eggs, and you won't miss them - this is a very satisfying dish.

Steps:
- Sausage -- In a large saute pan cook the diced andouille on medium heat until cooked through. Don't cook it at too high of a temperature. You want to slowly saute it. Once it is done, remove to a plate lined with a paper towel to drain.
- Sauce -- In the same pan, pour out the drippings from the andouille (no need to clean the pan out, the flavor is fine, you just don't want all the oil) and add the fresh olive oil and bring to medium high heat. Add in the onion, celery, red pepper and garlic and saute 3-4 minutes.
- Deglaze -- Originally I used chicken broth because that is all I had. Now, I like to deglaze with white wine just to get all the bits up off the pan. Add the wine and scrape up the bits from the pan and cook just a minute, then remove from the heat and slowly add in the cream, hot sauce (to taste) and the cajun seasoning and return to the heat on medium low cook until it reduces about 20-30 minutes. The cream will naturally thicken on it's own.
- Shrimp and Sausage -- After the sauce has thickened, add the sausage back in as well as the shrimp and cook on medium heat until the shrimp begin to curl and turn pink. Add salt and pepper if needed according to your taste.
- Biscuits -- Now I just used a canned biscuit, so I baked them according to directions, but if you want to make your own, by all means please do.
- Serving -- Right before serving, add in the scallions and serve this decadent sauce over sliced biscuits.
- Cook up some of your favorite eggs and serve with some Bloody Mary's for a perfect brunch. This also would make a great lunch or dinner.
SALAMI AND SCALLION BISCUITS
These rich, savory biscuits are even better than the traditional ham and cheese variety. Bits of chopped salami and scallions are scattered throughout tender dough that's been enriched with heavy cream. Did we mention that they come together - start to finish - in about 45 minutes? They'll be gone in about five.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. Using a pastry cutter, cut cold butter into dry ingredients. Add soppressata and scallions and combine gently. Add cream and mix, preferably with your hands, until a shaggy dough forms.
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 3 to 5 turns, just until dough comes together. If dough is dry and crumbly, add more cream as needed. Gently pat dough into a 1-inch-thick rectangle. Using a 2-inch biscuit cutter, cut out 6 to 8 biscuits. Press scraps together and cut out another 2 to 4 biscuits.
- Transfer biscuits to a baking sheet and brush generously with softened butter. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until biscuits are lightly browned.

Tips:
- For the best biscuits, use cold butter and buttermilk. This will help to create flaky, tender biscuits.
- If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice to 1 cup of milk.
- Be sure to knead the biscuit dough just until it comes together. Over-kneading will make the biscuits tough.
- When cutting out the biscuits, use a sharp knife or biscuit cutter. This will help to prevent the biscuits from sticking to the counter or rolling pin.
- Bake the biscuits in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that they rise evenly.
- For the sausage gravy, use a good quality sausage. This will make a big difference in the flavor of the gravy.
- Be sure to cook the sausage gravy until it is thick and bubbly. This will help to prevent it from being runny.
- Serve the biscuits and sausage gravy warm with your favorite sides.
Conclusion:
Scallion biscuits with sausage and gravy is a classic Southern comfort food dish that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. The biscuits are light and fluffy, the sausage gravy is rich and flavorful, and the scallions add a nice pop of freshness. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
