Thank you again, and this is exactly what I needed. In college I was in a cooking class and I made the worst biscuits. The teacher said who made these Pocky hucks and through one on the floor. I had to humbly raise my hand. It was my goal to always make a good biscuit after that and never could till I came upon you. I've used your smaller recipe and people have said they've never had such good biscuits. Even asking for the recipe. Now your larger recipe I will serve it Thanksgiving. By the way i am 80! It's about time I learned.
I am so addicted to biscuit making videos. yours are in the top 5! I particularly like the ones of the oldest grannies mixing lard and flour and buttermilk in one bowl, where they cream the fat and milk together with one hand and then pull the flour into the mix and then pinch a biscuit out, roll it in their hand a little and voila a biscuit! there's are lite and fluffy whereas yours are layered. I love them all! thanks for a great video!
Thanks for posting your video's. I made your stove top biscuits for two last week and they were good. I made a batch of these this morning and halved the recipe with 1/2tsp salt and 1tsp sugar and home made buttermilk using 1tbsp vinegar in a cup of milk. They were the best biscuits I've had since my Aunt Kat passed 20yrs ago when she made cathead buttermilk biscuits. She used a wooden cheese wheel tub and never measured anything..
Ken my good friend & Christian brother, very nice recipe, me being 57 & an Irishman from rural Kentucky, biscuits are a staple of my diet. I like your recipe & i like to eat biscuits with real butter( no margarine) and sourwood honey( it is sweet for folks who don't know) and i prefer the sourwood honey over the clover leaf honey. For folks with allergies/sinus/watery eyes etc... if you can find/buy honey from let's say a farmer's market within a 30 mile radius of your home that has somebody that harvests honey in that radius, it will greatly reduce the symptoms i mentioned above if you have some appx. 3 times a week, even if a tablespoon when a meal doesn't call/require honey, God bless you Ken & yours & all subs/viewers. Amen
I love your videos! You speak softly, clearly, and are detailed with your instructions. I made biscuits last night from one of your other recipes, and they turned out delicious. You are a great teacher, Thank you.
I wholeheartedly agree. I watched all your other biscuit recipes and I've used them to varying success. I believe that's down to my developing skillet and technique and the fact I haven't tried it with white lily, which is supposed to be more like a cake flour with lower protein and finer grind than my all-purpose flour... but they always turn out good even if they aren't as perfect as yours! I think I've learned enough that it's time to splurge on that white lily ( tiny kitchen and I try to minimize specific extras)
Just made these! I love how simple they are. I used to have a recipe where I used way more ingredients (they were delicious, of course), but I love that I can make these in just a few minutes with few preparations. Delicious, flakey and soft. Thanks Ken!
You know Ken, you have me thinking about making these this weekend for breakfast sandwiches - some nice egg, bacon and cheese between a big buttermilk biscuit! Mm-mm! Thank you for the recipe and inspiration!
Hi, thanks for this video. We've all made biscuits with these same ingredients but you having stressed the taking your time tip and being so gentle really makes a difference! Will try your method right away!
Thank you! After making biscuits for 10 years, you are the first to show me how to properly fold them before cutting. You have taken them to a wonderful delicious level. I enjoy watching your videos.
When I was a young kid I Iwent to spend a summer with my grandmother. The first morning I was at her house she woke me up at about 6am and asked, "are you hungry". I could smell homemade buttermilk biscuits, gravy and thick slab bacon coming from the kitchen and was happy to gobble down as much as I could. The next morning she woke me again at 6 am and asked "are you hungry". Yes, ma'am ! I said and headed for the kitchen. But, there was nothing cooked. She said to me, if you''re hungry then you need to learn to cook the foods that you like, it will make you a better man one day. So, I learned to make biscuits just like you're doing in this video. Thank you for the memories of that. It's been years since I've made them since frozen biscuits are 'nearly' as good and much more convenient, but I think I'll give making handmade a go again this weekend :)
Good morning Mr. Click. The search is over! I just made these biscuits just like you said - my grandchildren are eating them as I write this - these biscuits are amazing! They are so tender. Thank you very much for sharing your technique, it made all the difference!
Thank you Ive been making biscuits for 35 yrs and never used butter until now . They came out great! I loved listening to your video. Looking forward to more videos on cooking!
I failed so many times making biscuits until I found this video!! Thank you so much for taking the time and not speeding up the video. As someone who has taken up baking as a recent hobby, It helped me a lot and my biscuits came out perfect!!
You don't know it, but you taught me how to make biscuits!! I'm 49 years old, and never made them, until last year! Oh I've actually tried it a time or 2, but didn't have much interest in it really, because my mom always made them for me, whenever I needed or wanted her to. She passed away a couple of years ago, and I quickly realized, if I want biscuits, I now need to learn how to make them myself!. Thank you for taking the time, and patiently showing us how to make these beautiful, delicious buttermilk biscuits!!. My mom would've been so thrilled, and proud of me!!. Bless You, and thank you!!. Now I need to watch how you make your gravy! I've made it for years, but I bet yours is much better!!. 🙂🙃
Thank you so much for showing the technique of how to do this. I’ve struggled back-and-forth with making OK biscuits. Trying so many different recipes realizing it’s all in a technique thank you I needed to let it sit to absorb the milk slow and take its time while still bringing it together and folding it ❤ I really appreciate your video. I just happen to come across it by chance not even looking to make biscuits it came up. Can’t wait to see more of your tips.
thank you!!!! What a great teacher you are! I want to make biscuits for Thanksgiving; I ordered White Lily flour and now with your instructions I'm ready to bake.
Those biscuits look delicious! You've done an awesome job making them and I didn't even know that biscuits could be made on the stovetop. Thanks for sharing.
A bit of feedback for everyone: these biscuits are super easy to make! I made the full recipe for 16 and froze half of them for future use…or of course you can cut the recipe in half and consume over a few days…IF they last! Wow, so tasty with jams, especially marmalade with a “cuppa*.” Kudos Ken!👍 *coffee, or tea in my case. Re: salt in the recipe; I’ll use unsalted butter next time to cut down on the use of salt, since Baking Powder used to modify the all-purpose flour into self-rising does add additional salt compounds to the recipe. These compounds are found in both [Sodium] Bicarbonate and [Sodium] Aluminum Sulfate. Please note, neither sodium bicarbonate of sodium sulfate are harmful when ingested, but if one can cut back on salt intake, that’s a plus as long as your taste buds are OK with the result.
I'm one of those people that had never successfully made biscuits... Even with a mix.. lol. Have you ever made chocolate gravy? I'd never heard of it until a few years ago the maintenance man in my building was telling me his mom used to make it when he was a kid.. he said it was delicious.
I have made your biscuits before but just discovered I had to use up my buttermilk. Just found this larger recipe and needless to say, the biscuits are better than ever. Thanks so much for your talent!
Thank you so much for this video. I’m one of those that watched and tried to make and never could learn. My grandma and mom said girl I just don’t know what to tell you. God bless you, I needed this video.
never made a biscuit worth eating until today. i followed your intrustruction to a T they came out perfect. Thanks for taking the time to shows what we didn't know it made all the difference.
Boy do they look good !!! Big and soft and flaky !!! I can’t wait to make them using your recipe. I gave up on making homemade biscuits because I could not find a good recipe. I will try your recipe and hope I do not over mix them. Wish me luck !!!
Thank you so much for this buttermilk biscuit recipe AND, the honey-butter recipe, as well!!! Can’t wait to try both out for my family!!!! Happy Thanksgiving, Ken!!!!
Made these today and followed step by step. Came out WONDERFUL. I didn't use White Lily and I regret it because the Gold version is too salty foe my taste. Next time I will use white lily and possibly add a teaspoon of sugar to cut the salt from the self-rising flour. Baked mine on a cast iron pan foe exactly 13 minutes. Thank you Ken for this truly delicious and easy recipe.!!!
Thanks Ken your video on making biscuits is the best, and I have watched every one that's on You Tube. I really love the scripture you have at the end ,it says it all. Thank you and keep up the good work.
Yum the biscuit flavor and texture is amazing. A keeper recipe that made all the difference after several biscuit recipe trials. You are a blessing to find. Thank you for sharing and teaching us. I have already shared this recipe with others since I found your link online. God bless brother and thank you very much ! ✝️
thank you for sharing your videos with us all. Also love the Tupperware you use to show us your cooking skills in your videos. I see many comments on your soft spoken voice, yup they are all right, just like Bob Ross the painter, so soft spoken..
Ken, I love every recipe that I've watched of you with your simple instructions, top chef precision and style, and calming voice, but I'm here with one big complaint today.😉 You must let all of us home cooks know that it's okay to take that fantastic small remaining piece of excellent biscuit dough, gently rough it together into a little ball, press it out a lil' (no cut necessary), and put it on the baking sheet with those other fabulous biscuits!!😄 My mom always did that with any baked items that had some non-uniform residual. With a cake batter she would put the final spatula-to-bowl clean out into a little foil pan and she'd call it her "try me" sampler.😂 It cooked quickly and yes we ate it right out of the oven.The final scraps of biscuit dough went on the pan with the others and she would butter it and give me half, straight out of the oven. It didn't make it to the plates with the cute ones. I'm 61 and she passed away in 2007, but I still remember those childhood days and I miss her so much. If a name is needed for your fancy videos just call those scraps... biscuit bread sticks and pieces.🤣 It can be dipped into the honey butter then easily popped into your mouth. Sometimes I intentionally make a few like nice small doughnut hole size and serve 2-3 lol pieces when my family with the small kiddos are going to be at the table. Blessings to you and yours from the U.S. Thank you for what you do!
My last two biscuit videos show using all of the scrap dough. Nevertheless, I officially state for the record that "it is okay to bake any or all biscuit dough scraps." Enjoy!
I'm Brazilian, I live in Germany, I'm following your channel and I'm loving it. Tomorrow I will make this incredible recipe !! Tks and Merry Christmas 🎁🎄✨ Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪♥️ bye now ...🥰
Ohhhh those are just perfectly beautiful !!! I love biscuits. I also let the flour absorb the milk. Working gently makes all the difference. tfs Happy Thanksgiving ! 🍃🍂🍁🌵💗🦃🍃🍁🍂💗🍃🍂🍁🌵💗🦃🍃🍁🍂💗🍃🍂🍁🌵💗🦃🍃🍁🍂💗
