Sourdough Biscuits

From King Arthur, see blog here

  • I think I underfolded the dough, there were still lots of floury bits
  • No unsalted butter, so I used salted, + kosher salt in same measurements
  • Cut with a little round cutter thing. I think I may have incorrectly twisted a time or two. I didn’t flour the cutter and the biscuits stuck to it.

Results

Failure!

ouch flatness

  • Zero rise, these are more like flour-flavored cookies.
  • Flavor is pleasantly wheaty, at least, and I can taste the sourdough.
  • Crunchy in a way that would be good on the outside of a biscuit, but zero pillowy softness within.
  • May try without sourdough next to get the hang of regular biscuits.

I wonder if my baking powder has gone bad?
