I adore comfort foods, and I’m lucky that I get to travel to Atlanta 3-4 times a year. I’ve had some great southern comfort food there. Fried chicken and waffles, great BBQ, shrimp and grits, and of course buttermilk biscuits.
My wife and daughter love biscuits too. Actually, let me rephrase that. They love my biscuits. I’ve been making them as long as I can remember, and I make a pretty good version of them. It’s one of those dishes that’s incredibly simple, but is easy to screw up, and takes a little experience to make well.
But when they’re made well, they are delicious. Tender, moist, and flaky interior, with a slightly crunchy crust. And if all you’ve ever eaten are biscuits from a fast food joint, or from those tubes in the refrigerated section of the grocery store, you’re missing out.
