Recipe Review
andrew from Vancouver Island, BC
These didn't work out for me quite as well as everyone else. They were nice, but I may have been overcautious. The recipe makes lots of references to not overmixing the butter and flour, and I ended up undermixing, I think. I did have to do some extra fiddling when I'd patted the dough out on the counter as it started falling apart when I tried to cut it.
This is mostly my technique, though, not the recipe. I did find, however, that like some of Keller's recipes, this was a little too salty for me. The recipe calls for over a tablespoon of kosher salt, which is quite a lot for a batch of biscuits. Were I to make these again I'd try cutting this in half and see how they went.
I did half the recipe and got 8 biscuits using my cookie-cutter.
