3-STEP BISCUITS OR HOW TO BREAK UP WITH YOUR GIRLFRIEND BISCUITS

Steps:

• Stir together all ingredients (dough will be crumbly).
• Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface.
• Knead 3 or 4 times.
• Pat or roll dough to 1/2 inch thickness; cut with a 2 1/2 inch round cutter, and place on a lightly greased baking sheet.
• Bake at 400°F for 18 to 20 minutes or until golden.
• -----------------------------------------------------.
• NOTE: Keep in mind that the secret for making excellent biscuits is-- Try not to handle dough too much or too firmly-- The less manipulation (kneading, handling dough a lot with hands) the better the texture.
• Now, About the bad reviews, please know this: In order for this to work, YOU MUST USE SELF RISING FLOUR. So go follow it "to a T" and if your girlfriend wants to break up with you over failed biscuits -- well, she is superficial and you'd be wise to break up with her before she breaks up with you! And always remember this: If you can't say anything nice, then don't say anything at all.

BASIC BISCUITS

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• In a large mixing bowl sift together flour, baking powder and salt. Cut in shortening with fork or pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
• Pour milk into flour mixture while stirring with a fork. Mix in milk until dough is soft, moist and pulls away from the side of the bowl.
• Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and toss with flour until no longer sticky. Roll dough out into a 1/2 inch thick sheet and cut with a floured biscuit or cookie cutter. Press together unused dough and repeat rolling and cutting procedure.

BAKED TUNA WITH BISCUITS

Steps:

• Make traditional white sauce: melt butter in saucepan over low/medium to medium heat. Add flour and stir for a minute or two until mixture bubbles. Gradually add milk, stirring constantly. Continue to stir as the sauce heats up, thickens and reaches a slow boil. Remove from heat, season with salt and pepper.
• Combine white sauce, tuna and onion and spoon into a lightly greased two-quart casserole or baking dish. Top with shredded cheese. Arrange biscuits on top and bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes.
• *For two people, the recipe can be halved; use a small can of refrigerated biscuits (5-6 biscuits.) *Original recipe called for chopped green pepper, which would have been greeted at my house with the enthusiasm level generally reserved for brussels sprouts or Black Plague. Add it if you did a better job raising your children than I did. And cut down on the onion and finely chop it to conceal it from the suspicious eyes of finicky children (or their father.).
