- For a richer flavor, you can use buttermilk instead of regular milk. It adds a subtle tang and tenderness to your biscuits.
- Add-ins: You feel like jazzing things up a bit? Go on and fold in some shredded cheese, chives, or crumbled bacon into the dough. Makes for a nice surprise when you take a bite.
- Leftover biscuits? They are just as appealing the next day, gently warmed in the oven or toaster.
- Now, don't be alarmed if the dough's consistency is a bit stickier than you'd expect. The mayonnaise adds moisture, which in turn makes the biscuits deliciously tender.
- Mix the dough with a light hand. Overworking it will make the biscuits dense and tough – remember, we're aiming for soft and pillowy.
So there you have it, my dear. A recipe passed down and pared down, simple enough for any hurried morning yet good enough for Sunday supper. Enjoy the warmth, the tenderness, and the flavor that speaks of home and heart. Happy baking!
