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!

- 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.

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.

Tips:
- For the best-tasting shortcakes, use fresh strawberries when they are in season.
- If you don't have a biscuit cutter, you can use a glass or a cup to cut out the shortcakes.
- Be careful not to overmix the shortcake dough, or the biscuits will be tough.
- To make sure the shortcakes are cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center of one. If it comes out clean, the shortcakes are done.
- For a richer shortcake, use heavy cream instead of milk.
- To make the whipped cream ahead of time, beat it until stiff peaks form and then store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours.
- If you don't have a pastry bag, you can use a spoon to dollop the whipped cream onto the shortcakes.
- For a fun and festive presentation, top the shortcakes with fresh berries and a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
Conclusion:
Strawberry shortcake is a classic summer dessert that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its flaky biscuits, sweet strawberries, and creamy whipped cream, it's the perfect way to celebrate the season. Whether you're serving it for a special occasion or a casual get-together, strawberry shortcake is sure to be a hit.
