-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons margarine or butter
3/4 cup milk -- plus
3 tablespoons milk
You can blend whole wheat flour with toasted sesame seeds to make
these light golden rounds.
In small skillet, toast sesame seeds over medium heat until lightly
browned, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Preheat oven to 425F. Lightly grease large cookie sheet. In large
bowl, mix flours, baking powder, salt, and 5 teaspoons toasted sesame
seeds. With pastry blender or two knives used scissor-fashion, cut in
margarine or butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons milk, stirring just until mixture forms
soft dough that leaves side of bowl.
Turn dough onto lightly floured surface; knead 8 to 10 strokes to mix
thoroughly. With floured rolling pin, roll dough 1/2" thick.
With floured 2 1/2" round biscuit cutter, cut out biscuits. Place
biscuits, about 2" apart, on cookie sheet.
Press trimmings together, roll and cut as above. Brush tops of
biscuits with remaining 1 tablespoon milk; sprinkle with remaining 1
teaspoon sesame seeds. Bake 12 to 15 minutes until golden.
Makes 12 biscuits.
