Sour Cream Biscuits & Chicken Salad
A recipe for sour cream biscuits served with homemade chicken salad dressing as a light snack.
Ingredients
all-purpose flour
185 g (about 1 1/2 cup)
baking powder
2 tsp
baking soda
1/2 tsp
salt
1/2 tsp
sour cream
1/4 cup
fresh milk
1/2 cup
sugar
1 tbsp
frozen butter
60 g
Instructions
1
Step 1
Sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
2
Step 2
Cut the frozen butter into small pieces; whisk together the sour cream, fresh milk, and sugar.
3
Step 3
Place the flour mixture in a mixing bowl, add the frozen butter, and cut it into fine crumbs using a pastry blender (you may also use your hands or a fork).
4
Step 4
Pour the milk mixture into the flour and fold together with a rubber spatula just until a dough forms—work quickly to avoid gluten development. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and dust the top with a little flour to prevent sticking.
5
Step 5
Dust a rolling pin with flour and roll or press the dough to about 1 cm thick (you can also flatten it with your palms, but be sure to flour your hands to prevent sticking).
6
Step 6
Use a round cutter to cut out circles about 9 cm in diameter. Arrange them neatly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake in a preheated oven at 200°C for about 15 minutes.
