Herbed Biscuit Ham Sandwiches

"These biscuits look awfully good and I cannot wait for my herb garden to come up after the winter. The recipe suggests ham, but these biscuits would be good with pretty much any kind of filling, I would think. By chef Sarah DiGregorio published in Parade Magazine."

directions

  • Preheat oven to 450 deg F. Put cubed butter in freezer.
  • Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, baking soda and herbs in a food processor pulse to combine. If you do not have all the herbs, just use more of the others, so that you have 1/2 cup total.
  • Drop in butter cubes and pulse until mixture resembles coarse cornmeal.
  • Pour in buttermilk and pulse until mixture just comes together.
  • Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Pat into a rectangle, then cut into thirds. Stack thirds on top of each other and pat out into a rectangle again. Repeat twice, then pat into a 4x12 inch rectangle.
  • Cut in half lengthwise and then into 8 square biscuits.
  • Bake on a parchment-lined baking sheet until puffed and golden, 10-12 minutes.
  • Split biscuits and spread with mustard and honey. Top with ham and pickles and make into sandwiches.

  1. I just made a batch of these biscuits and they are great! Used fresh mint, parsley, and Mexican tarragon from our garden but had to use a freeze-dried dill weed (Liteman's). Try 'em, you'll like the recipe.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

My screen name is a diminutive in Lithuanian for bread, so you won't be suprised to learn that I love to bake bread. In recent years I have been baking a lot of sourdough breads and have several starters sitting in my refrigerator. But I like to cook a lot of other things, as well, especially from various cultures. The cat wishes I would concentrate on meat and fish... I joined a few years ago but started posting recipes and participating in forums just recently - I wish I had done so earlier. Recipezaar is a great community! Right now I am a co-host for the Breads and Baking and the Eastern Europe forums - I hope to see you there!
