Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
8 tablespoons unsalted cold butter -- cut into cubes
1/2 cup buttermilk
2/3 cup wheat beer
2 tablespoons melted butter
1/2 teaspoon coarse sea salt
Preheat oven to 425F.
In a food processor add flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.
Pulse to combine. Add the cold butter and process until combined. Add
to a large bowl.
Add the buttermilk and beer. Mix with a fork until just combined.
Add to a well-floured flat surface and pat into a rectangle. Using a
cold rolling pin (preferably marble) gently roll into a large
rectangle, about 1" in thickness, using as few strokes as possible.
Fold the dough into thirds as you would a letter about to go into an
envelope. Roll lightly, once in each direction to about 1 inch
thickness, and fold in thirds again. Gently roll into about 1 1/2
inch thickness. (This will give you the flaky layers.)
Using a biscuit cutter, cut out 6 to 8 biscuits. Place in a baking
pan that has been sprayed with cooking spray
Brush biscuits with melted butter and sprinkle with sea salt.
Bake at 425F for 11 to 14 minutes or until the tops are golden brown.
Makes 6 to 8 biscuits
