    2               cups  boiling water

    2               cups  all-purpose flour
       1/4           cup  semolina flour -- or yellow cornmeal
    1         tablespoon  sugar
    1 1/2      teaspoons  baking powder
       3/4      teaspoon  salt
       1/2      teaspoon  baking soda
    1           teaspoon  dried basil
       1/4      teaspoon  ground red pepper
       1/4           cup  chilled butter -- or stick margarine, cut 
into small pieces
    1                cup  lowfat buttermilk
                          Cooking spray

Combine boiling water and sun-dried tomatoes in a bowl; let stand for 
15 minutes. Drain and chop.

Preheat oven to 425F.

Lightly spoon flours into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. 
Combine all-purpose flour and next 7 ingredients (all-purpose flour 
through pepper) in a bowl; cut in butter with a pastry blender or 2 
knives until mixture resembles coarse meal. (Flour mixture and butter 
can also be combined in a food processor; pulse until mixture 
resembles coarse meal.) Add tomatoes and buttermilk; stir just until moist.

Turn dough out onto a heavily floured surface; knead lightly 5 times. 
Roll dough to a 1/2" thickness; cut with a 2 1/2" biscuit cutter. 
Place on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Bake at 425F for 
15 minutes or until golden.

Yield: 1 dozen (serving size: 1 biscuit)
