The name of these little biscuits is pretty self explanatory, and who doesn't like biscuits and pork fat? This recipe can easily be halved if 6 dozen biscuits is too much. I haven't tried freezing them yet but I'm sure them would be fine. Ingredients:
1 lb cracklings, ground |
6 cups flour |
1 tablespoon baking powder |
1 tablespoon salt |
2 eggs |
1/4 pint sour cream |
1/2 cup your favorite wine (i use chardonnay) |
1 egg yolk |
1/2 cup cream |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 300°F. 2. In large bowl mix together cracklings, flour, baking powder, and salt. 3. In a separate bowl whisk together the eggs, sour cream, and wine. 4. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour the egg mixture into it. 5. Gradually combined the two mixtures. 6. On a flour surface roll dough to 3/4 inch thickness and cut with a 2 1/2-3 inch cookie cutter. 7. Place biscuit rounds on a greased cookie sheet. 8. In a small bowl whisk together the egg yolk and cream. 9. Brush the tops of biscuits with cream mixture. 10. Bake for 20-25 minutes. |
