When I was very young, my mother taught me to make biscuits. I would always forget the recipe . But finally I remembered It in my late teens, and boy am I glad I did. Soft and tender, fluffy they melt in your mouth. The same taste from childhood is in my home now, just because I learned how to make my Mamma's biscuits
Biscuits

1 teaspoon salt
These are ready to be placed on baking sheet |

Mix the dry ingredients together, then add the shortening cutting it into the flour mixture, cut into pea size. Then mix the liquid and yogurt well. add milk into the flour mixture trying not to over mix. form a ball , on a floured surface , flatten into 1/2 inch thickness.

I used a mixture of bread flour and all-purpose flour i like the texture.
