NASHVILLE HOUSE FRIED BISCUITS

Source of Recipe

Nashville House Restaurant - Nashville, Indiana


Recipe Introduction

Fried biscuits? Well, that's one of the specialties at the Nashville House Restaurant. They wouldn't be on the menu unless they were popular!

List of Ingredients

1 quart milk
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 TBSP. dry yeast or 2 2/3 packages yeast
1/2 cup shortening
6 teaspoons salt
7 to 9 cups flour


Recipe

Add yeast to warm water. Add other ingredients and let dough rise. Work dough into biscuits and drop into hot fat*. Serve with apple butter. Yields about 7 dozen biscuits.

Biscuits can be frozen individually and stored in plastic bags. When you work them up, don't let the biscuits rise too high.

* The fat should be slightly hotter than 350 degrees F. If fat is too hot, the biscuits will be soggy in the center.
