Breakfast Biscuits and Gravy

Servings: 4

Preparation duration: -1 minutes

Cooking duration: -1 minutes

 

Ingredients:

2 teaspoons Baking powder

1/2 cup butter

3 tablespoons All-purpose flour

2 teaspoons Fresh sage leaves

1/4 teaspoon Ground allspice

1/2 teaspoon Paprika

1 1/2 pounds Pork sausage

1 1/2 teaspoons salt

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

1 3/4 cups Unbleached all-purpose flour

Unsalted butter, or as needed

4 cups whole milk

cup Plain yogurt

Equipment:

baking paper

baking sheet

oven

food processor

blender

bowl

frying pan

Cooking instruction summary:

  1. 1. Preheat the oven to 425F. Cover a baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper.
  2. 2. Make the biscuits: sift the flour, baking powder, and salt together into a large bowl. Using two knives or a pastry blender, cut in the butter until the texture rangers from cornmeal to the size of small peas. (These two steps can be done quickly in a food processor.) Using a fork, gradually mix in the yogurt, then the milk, until the dough is quite soft and somewhat sticky. Work quickly without overworking the dough. Turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it briefly, just long enough to get it to hold together. Roll it out so it is about 1 1/4 inches thick, and cut it into 2 i
  3. 3. While the biscuits are baking, prepare the sausages: place all the sausage ingredients in a large bowl and mix thoroughly, using your fingers.
  4. To test the seasoning, fry a tiny patty and taste; adjust if necessary.
  5. 4. Place the patties in a large heavy or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, and cook until they are crisp and brown on the outside and cooked through inside, about 8 minutes per side. Transfer the sausage patties to a warmed platter and keep warm.
  6. 5. Make the gravy: Add enough of the butter to the skillet so the bottom is covered with 1/8 inch of fat. Stir, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Reduce the heat to medium and add the flour slowly, stirring until it has absorbed the butter. Cook, stirring constantly, until it turns golden brown, at least 2 minutes. Then slowly pour in the milk, stirring constantly, and cook until the gravy thickens to the consistency of very heavy cream.<
  7. 6. To serve, split two biscuits in half. Place the bottom halves on a warm plate, top them with sausage patties, and pour a generous amount of gravy over the sausage. Mince the fresh sage and sprinkle some over the sausage and gravy. Set the biscuit tops at an angle, partially covering the sausages and serve immediately.
  8. 4 servings (with extra biscuits).

Food Trivia

Eating an early dinner, or just skipping it altogether, may increase the amount of fat a person burns at night, a study found.

Food Joke

"Who Needs Food?" It’s breakfast time. Sadie asks her husband Moishe, "Would you like some scrambled eggs, perhaps a piece of toast and grapefruit and coffee to follow?" Moishe replies, "No thanks, it`s this Viagra, it`s really taken the edge off my appetite." At lunchtime, Sadie asks Moishe if he would like something to eat. "How about a bowl of your favourite home made vegetable soup, followed by a cheese and tomato sandwich on rye?" she inquires. Moishe again declines. "It`s this Viagra, it`s really taken the edge off my appetite." Come dinnertime, Sadie asks Moishe if he wants anything to eat. She`ll go to the delicatessen and buy him some food. Would he like a nice juicy lamb chop with a tasty stir-fry followed by apple pie and cream? Again, Moishe says, "No thanks, it`s this Viagra, it`s really taken the edge off my appetite." "Well," Sadie says, "Would you mind getting off me and letting me up? I`m starving."
