** People Food!!! **
I got this recipe off a very old rusty
Magic Baking Powder can that we have here.
Sift once, then sift into bowl,
2 cups once-sifted pastry flour
(or 1 3/4 cups sifted all-purpose flour),
4 tsp. Magic Baking Powder,
1/2 tsp salt
Cut in 3 to 5 Tbsp chilled shortening finely.
Add 2/3 cup milk and mix lightly.
Knead 10 seconds on lightly-floured baking board
and roll out to 3/4-inch thickness;
Shape with floured cutter
Arrange on greased pan.
Bake at 450 about 12 minutes.
Serve hot, yields 16 biscuits.
