List of Ingredients

10 cups flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 1/2 tablespoons baking powder
1 3/4 cups powdered milk
3 teaspoons cream of tartar
2 1/2 cups shortening


Recipe

In a large bowl, sift together all dry ingredients. Blend well. With butter knives or a pastry blender, cut in the shortening until evenly distributed. Mixture will be rough in texture. Put into an airtight container or large zip baggies. Label. Store in a cool, dry place. Use within 10 - 12 weeks. Makes about 14 cups of ALL PURPOSE MIX.

Variation: Use 5 cups all-purpose flour and 5 cups whole- wheat flour instead of 10 cups all-purpose flour. Increase baking powder to 4 tablespoons. Note: If you are using ALL PURPOSE MIX at high altitudes, add 1/4 cup flour when making mix. You can use mix with any recipe you may already have for 'Bisquick
