  3. Stir in the buttermilk.
  4. In a big bowl, stir the flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together.
  5. Cut in the shortening with a pastry blender until the mixture is crumbly.
  6. Add the yeast mixture and stir only until the dry ingredients are moist.
  7. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead 4-5 times.
