4 cups all purpose flour
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
2/3 cup unsalted pure butter
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
1/4 cup melted butter
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In food processor with steel chopping blade
in place, whirl the flour, baking powder, soda, sugar and salt to blend.
Cut butter into chunks and add to flour mixture, pulsing just enough to
cut the butter into the flour. Add the buttermilk and just whril until
mixture wants to form a ball. Remove to counter and with hands continue
to knead the dough a little. Roll or pat out about 3/4 inch thick. Cut
into biscuits and place in a well oiled 10 or 12 inch cast iron skillet.
Microwave butter 30 seconds on high and pour over the biscuits. Bake
about 25-30 minutes, until golden brown.
