Cooking duration: 12 minutes
Ingredients:
3 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/4 cups buttermilk**
2 teaspoons caraway seeds*
1 teaspoon Kosher salt
1/2 to 1 cup of raisins*
1/4 cup to 1/2 cup of sugar (depending on how sweet you want them)
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
Equipment:
muffin tray
whisk
bowl
oven
wooden spoon
frying pan
Cooking instruction summary:
1 Preheat oven to 425°F. Butter a standard muffin pan.2 In a large bowl, vigorously whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt. 3 Cut the butter into tablespoon sized pieces into the bowl of flour. Using your (clean) fingers, work the butter into the flour, schmooshing (is that a technical term?) the butter between your fingers and mixing with the flour until the mixture resembles a coarse meal. If you are using raisins, caraway seeds, or any other add-ins, mix them into the mixture now.4 Make a well in the center of the flour. Pour the buttermilk into the center of the well. Use a wooden spoon to gently mix the flour into the buttermilk until the flour is moistened with the buttermilk. Then use your hands to form the mixture into a loose, shaggy, slightly sticky ball of dough. The dough should be a little sticky, if it's too dry, add a tablespoon more of buttermilk. If it's just too wet to handle, add a sprinkling more of flour. Do not over-mix! And at this point work quickly. As soon as the acidic buttermilk interacts with the alkaline baking soda, bubbles will form and leavening will start.5 Break off 12-equal portions of the dough and place them in the wells of the muffin tin. Put in the oven and bake for 12-13 minutes, until the tops are nicely browned. Remove from the oven and let cool for a couple minutes in the pan. Remove the biscuits from the muffin tin to a rack to cool for a few minutes more.Serve with butter and jam.
