The American food

Hello,

To continue on the American Food subject, I am going to give you a few recipes. American food is a mix of different cultures : It's very hard to find a meal 100% American ! By the way, Mexican culture influences  the American food a lot.

For the moment, I am going to give you recipe of the milk biscuits.

To make these biscuits you will need 2 cups of flour (300g),1 soup spoon of baking powder, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 cup of butter (120g), 2/3 cup of milk (15cl).

Preheat your oven to gaz mark 6. In a bowl, mix the flour, the baking powder and the salt. Next, add the butter cutted in dices. You need to obtain lumps. Next, add the milk to have a mixture. After, roll the mixture on a floured area. The mixture must be 2 cm of thickness. Cut the mixture with the help of a cercle form of 3,5 cm in diameter.Put them on an unbuttered baking tray. Let them bake from 12 to 15 minutes. Eat them hot, cutted in 2 parts and buttered.

These biscuits can be eaten for breakfast with butter and jam but you can also eat them with ham or with pâté, for diner.

Let me show you a picture :

Enjoy your meal!!
