Speaking of buttermilk, that could be a cool little video. It's something that's virtually impossible to find over here in Sweden. Of course it's not very hard to make a comparable product yourself, but after looking into the reasons why it's readily available in some places but not others (mostly to do with different methods of producing commercial butter from what I gather), it's more interesting than I thought.
In Helen Rennie's scone recipe, she suggests freezing the scones and then heating them up in the oven (wrapped up in foil) when you want to eat them so that they're fresh. I've found that works well, in case anyone wants to double or triple this recipe.
I make 24 each time, just for me and hubs. Chef John’s “Irish” Cheddar and Green Onion ones, plus a cup of coffee. Super easy, turn oven to 400f, put water in brew pot, both ready in 17 minutes. By then the garden is watered and we’re eating. Retirement is grand.
Freezers are the second greatest invention after computers. They're so damn good. You can freeze nearly anything and have such a miniscule degradation of quality
@@PotatoMC1 Those are both fantastic contenders for "best invention" but my favorite still goes to headache medication. Acetaminophen has saved me from many nasty headaches in the past.
I made these on accident once I was high on acid, and was making biscuits and gravy for breakfast. I was very careful in laminating the dough, and i cut them into squares, because i didn't want to waste the edges. They rose so much in the oven, then looked like Slinkys going down the stairs, so I called them Slinky biscuits. Best biscuits I ever made. I don't see myself doing acid again anytime soon, but I at least learned how to make good biscuits.
Life-changing tip for "cutting in" butter: use a cheese grater. I recommend putting the butter in the freezer for a few minutes first. But, I will use this for biscuits and scones from now on.
I'm glad you didn't go much beyond 7 folds, as it wouldn't take a lot of doubling for your biscuit to be thicker than the universe. Don't risk it for the biscuit.
But each folding will make each layer more and more thin, even thinner than an atom th-cam.com/video/H-O-TocmrI4/w-d-xo.html This french guy counted it
Trimming the sides with a biscuit dough like this actually helps the layers separate and puff up in the oven - the edges of the dough act like a “crimp” of sorts and really only lets the middle of the biscuit rise. Not a step I’d skip myself, but these look really good!
50 years ago mother taught me that if I had no buttermilk for a recipe, I could add a tsp. of vinegar or lemon juice to regular milk about half an hour before I needed it. It was quite a trip to the store back then as we lived on a farm.
I wonder if buttermilk biscuit dough could also make a good croissant? Croissant dough is usually yeast leavened, of course, but it would be an interesting experiment.
Adam, now that you've discovered the joy of the pastry blender/cutter, give it a try with avocado for guacamole and eggs for egg salad. It does a fantastic job!
I learned from Chefsteps that the easiest way to cut butter into pastry is to cube it, throw it into a stand mixer with flour, and run it on low with the paddle attachment until you have the texture you want. I made Adam's biscuits with that technique and it was great.
Love the sponsor Adam! Small trick we use at work that may prove useful is using a plain old cheesegrater to break up butter in scones and biscuits. Amazingly easy, super quick, and by far the best results (plus you have multiple holes to choose from if you use a normal box grater)
The biscuit sold in my country has no sugar or butter but tastes like a cookie it's so flavourful! I dont know the ingredients but it is DELICIOUS (also has some sweet like taste on it's own even with no sugar wowowow)
DEFINITELY making these in the morning. BTW, you can make a buttermilk substitute by adding a splash of white vinegar to the milk and let it sit until it curdles.
I've stopped using my pastry cutter and now I use the cheese grater to cut/shred very cold butter into my biscuits. Works great. I've also started cutting apart my actual layers (with the bench scraper I'm going to use for cleanup anyway) instead of folding, but similarly: stack lots of layers, yep. These look great.
I make a spectacular country style biscuit. The recipe is almost exactly this one, ingredient wise, except sometimes I sub lard, yes lard, for butter and they come out slightly "gooey" and delicious, perfect for pairing with sausage or bacon. Your video taught me a thing or two that I will try. Definitely making tri-biscuits. Thanks!
When you said 128 layers, I'm thinking, "what? Is this one of those ridiculously long processes for not much improvement?" I apologize. The finished layers look great! I grew up with old-fashioned drop biscuits. When I was a teenager in 1967, I tried mildly kneading and folding my biscuit dough. Never saw it recommended anywhere, just tried it and loved the layers. This is a vast improvement. I'll try it next time I make biscuits!
Just tried this recipe. My dough just flattened in the oven, the only one that stayed in it's triangular shape did not fall over, and the final consistency of the biscuit was more doughey that flaky. But it was still amazing because of the flavor of the butter milk and the crispness of the skin. I'll say it tastes more like a cake to me. Will try again though, thanks for the recipe!
just made these for my mom, we had traditional biscuits and gravy for a mothers day dinner but i used these instead! they were absolutely perfect and she loved them, thanks adam!
Triangles! Great idea. RE: Butter I freeze the butter and grate it into the dough with the same grater I use for parmigiano reggiano cheese. I mix the butter in a tablespoon at a time, otherwise it clumps into big balls of butter. Try it. You'll like it. RE: Buttermilk All modern buttermilk is cultured; that is, it is milk with active lactobacilli added. I make my own. In a sterilized 12oz jar, I drop a teaspoon of whey from active-culture plain yogurt. (Whey is the cloudy liquid on top of the yogurt. I get a lot of whey when I strain plain yogurt to get Greek yogurt. I keep whey in the fridge in another sterilized jar. Lasts for weeks.) Back to the buttermilk . . . . Then I fill the jar with whole milk. Not 2%, not skim. I put the jar in the fridge. Three day later, I have cultured buttermilk. (Yeah, you really need to keep it cold while the bacilli eat the milk and pee acid. If you don't, you get yogurt, not buttermilk.)
I have twin toddlers and each has their own teddy bear. If either of the kids drops their bear, and if I pick it up for them, I will almost always hand it to them upside-down with an enthusiastic, "Summon forth the upside-down bear!"
ooh, I wanna try these! Growing up, my Mom would make the standard Pillsbury canned biscuits and serve them with applesauce (butter and applesauce is an interesting taste, not to mention the heterogeneity of it all). This seems like a nice little upgrade without a lot of hassle.
I've done some fiddling with low carb recipes using a folding technique (flour being gluten, oat fiber, and almond flour). I have a feeling I'm still letting my butter melt too much before it gets to the oven because I don't get a lot of rise, but of course, it may just be that the elasticity needed for layers to hold will never be achievable without the real flour.
As a British-American, I would argue that American biscuits are more like British "dumplings" than to British "scones" which are much sweeter and more cake-like in their eating.
I cut the butter into small cubes, refreeze it, then throw it into the food processor with the flour and pulse until I have little pea-sized pieces. No work, easy cleanup and great results.
I am late to this party, but I need to say this. To me, this is the best cooking video I have ever seen and not because of the recipe involved. But how you arrived to it. It is often said cooking is a science and if you can follow instructions, you can cook. To that, I agree wholeheartedly. But people often seem to forget science is also about the experimentation. That thrill of discovery and exploration of curiosity. You saw something and went "Hmm. That was interesting. Can I do it again?". Cooking is as much about creating something that tastes good as it is the exploration of what can taste good.
FINALLY!!!! Someone else that knows the joys of a pastry cutter! lol. Seriously, I know they're technically a "unitasker" and therefore to be shunned but, OMFG do they do what they do so well!!!! 30 seconds and it's all incorporated, max. I honestly do NOT know why it took me so danged long to buy one but, once I did, I was an instant convert.
In Germany we have really similiar "biscuits" called Laugen-Blätterteig-Ecken; But they are more prezel like, because they are swooped through a 3% (weight/volume) NaOH solution. Maybe you want to try that? Everything else stays the same, but you have the extra flavours of the maillard-reaction!
So I'm watching this and it's like ... eh .. another biscuit recipe ... ATK does this layering ... and the BOOM! They fall over. Brilliant. Congratulations. FYI: 7-Up biscuits are still my fav. They are even good COLD! Yes, you heard me ... COLD! Hope you are enjoying your new house and everyone is getting settled in.
Actually in the south US they use a mixture of lard and butter in the biscuits and sometimes 100% lard if it is Leaf Lard (kidney fat). It's amazing how different cultures can arrive at similar places in cooking.
Oh yeah pastry cutter FTW. I use mine a LOT when making applesauce. Once it's cooked and cooled just a bit I go at it with the pastry cutter and voila, perfectly chunky delicious applesauce. Which I then use some in my Oatmeal, Applesauce and Cranraisin muffins.
I have my own biscuit recipe that I like that requires grating the butter and has half a stick of butter per cup of flour (that's a ton of butter!), however, I will be giving this technique a try. I'll try adding some sugar to my next dough, I don't know why but every time I try adding sugar to my biscuits they never taste right.
@@ryanmclaren6878 Biscuits are a great starting point with learning to play with baking recipes because they are so forgiving. I've tried both half folds and trifold when laminating the dough. I prefer trifold as it works the flour less and develops less gluten. If you use cake flour you can go with folding in half. I do 4 trifolds to get 81 layers. That's what produces my favorite texture with AP flour
". . . every time I try adding sugar to my biscuits they never taste right." Yeah, I hear you. Biscuits made with sugar taste more like scones than southern biscuits.
gotta try this tomorrow morning! ….and I did try them. I wasn’t as careful as Adam about folding and cutting and so on but they turned out very similar, although without actually falling over. But they’re good!
Hi adam I just wanna give you some advice on making a burger, when making a burger I usually make smash patties which yes do make a lot of smoke but I realized if I actually add like a lot of oil ( by a lot I mean a good amount like just a little more than normal) it reduces the amount of smoke, man those smash patties get a incredible crust when done, for the second way I make a burger is on the grill when on the grill I just make 1big patty instead of 2 small ones like the smash patties, and patties on the grill give you a juicer burger but not as good a crust, for what I season my burgers with, it’s literally just salt and black pepper, something I like with smash patties is how fast they cook, so they are a incredible for a quick meal, no joke I can get a smash burger ready under 5 minutes, so they is all what I have to say about burger hopefully it helped you or anyone else
Best tip for biscuit making I ever heard was to use a cheese grater for the butter (frozen). It's easy and gets it cut up into the perfect sized little bits.
I wonder how Scott peacock would feel about this…I saw him at an event once and for sure he agrees on forming dough by hand, he very gentle and takes his time forming it.
Looks like yummyness, must try... My favorite part, "The upside-down bear." Cute pun! Although what most don't know, that Bear is referred to as "goo" nowadays. This is where they've extracted all the B-pollen from the honey, leaving just goo. Not a rip, simply for those that don't know. From a honey connoisseur, and Classic Pooh fan of the 60's. I mean hey, I had an original pull-string-pooh that talked to you. Love your feed, ty!
So here in India we make something super similar to this, we call it Khari or puff pastry. We usually dunk it in tea, the layers absorb the tea just like toast.
You know, we have those here, but we make them with cooking grease rather than butter. I never knew they were the same, but all of the bullet points and tips and descriptions match up. Really nice things, i tell you
My favorite way to incorporate butter into my biscuits is to put it in the freezer for 30 minutes and use a cheese grater! Its quick and easy and most people probably already have one.

Filmjölk is a pretty decent buttermilk substitute
I heard Kefir of russian origin is also pretty damn similar.
Wait you guys dont have that here in the netherlands its called karnemelk (churn milk)
apparently if you yeet vinegar into milk you get something similar
Agreed
Biscuits that flip themselves in the oven.
That’s absolutely genius.

I think he already used this method in his previous videos? But it's a good tip nonetheless
I just commented basically the same thing begore seeing yours, it's a super useful tip!
Note: Large hole, not a ginger grater/rasp.
You’re totally right as I’ve made scones both ways, but bizarrely he used that (much easier) method in a different video. Kinda weird.
Id prefer to use a fork or pastry cutter, since they’re easier to clean (I don’t have a dishwasher, so everything is washed by hand)

Hi adam I just wanna give you some advice on making a burger, when making a burger I usually make smash patties which yes do make a lot of smoke but I realized if I actually add like a lot of oil ( by a lot I mean a good amount like just a little more than normal) it reduces the amount of smoke, man those smash patties get a incredible crust when done, for the second way I make a burger is on the grill when on the grill I just make 1big patty instead of 2 small ones like the smash patties, and patties on the grill give you a juicer burger but not as good a crust, for what I season my burgers with, it’s literally just salt and black pepper, something I like with smash patties is how fast they cook, so they are a incredible for a quick meal, no joke I can get a smash burger ready under 5 minutes, so they is all what I have to say about burger hopefully it helped you or anyone else
Adam great video, I use a food grater to cut in the butter, the butter has to be almost frozen, but it works well.
You're the man Adam, keep up the good work sir
Best tip for biscuit making I ever heard was to use a cheese grater for the butter (frozen). It's easy and gets it cut up into the perfect sized little bits.
You have invented the palmier 🌴 biscuit, congratulations!
The name and the recipe are just brilliant
YOOO this looks great dude! I'm gonna try this tomorrow
I wonder how Scott peacock would feel about this…I saw him at an event once and for sure he agrees on forming dough by hand, he very gentle and takes his time forming it.
Looks like yummyness, must try...
My favorite part, "The upside-down bear." Cute pun! Although what most don't know, that Bear is referred to as "goo" nowadays. This is where they've extracted all the B-pollen from the honey, leaving just goo. Not a rip, simply for those that don't know.
From a honey connoisseur, and Classic Pooh fan of the 60's. I mean hey, I had an original pull-string-pooh that talked to you.
Love your feed, ty!
So here in India we make something super similar to this, we call it Khari or puff pastry. We usually dunk it in tea, the layers absorb the tea just like toast.
He’s really optimising for heterogeneity now
I typically freeze my butter then shred it in with a box grater
You know, we have those here, but we make them with cooking grease rather than butter. I never knew they were the same, but all of the bullet points and tips and descriptions match up. Really nice things, i tell you
Pro tip: freeze the butter and use a grater. It's much faster and more fun than a food processor or a pastry cutter.
I love your videos Adam. They always make the day better
MOTHER OF GOD..... I have witnessed the birth of a new biscuit. I may die a happy man now
dude those fallover biscuits would be killer with sausage gravy
My favorite way to incorporate butter into my biscuits is to put it in the freezer for 30 minutes and use a cheese grater! Its quick and easy and most people probably already have one.
cant wait to try these biscuits!
I love how over time in jokes have formed like summon forth the upside down bear or 🏺🍗👉
