Black Pepper Biscuits With Sorghum Food

BLACK-PEPPER BISCUITS WITH SORGHUM

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and pepper in a food processor, and pulse to combine. Add butter, and pulse until mixture resembles cornmeal, 4 or 5 times. Add buttermilk, and pulse until the mixture just barely comes together.
• Transfer to a lightly floured surface, and gently pat into a rectangle about 1 1/4 inches thick (do not overwork dough). Cut out 8 rounds using a 2 1/2-inch round cutter, and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Gently press scraps together, cut out 2 more rounds, and place on baking sheet. Brush tops with heavy cream, and generously sprinkle tops with pepper.
• Bake until tops are golden brown, 14 to 16 minutes. Serve warm with sorghum and butter.

BLACK PEPPER BISCUITS AND SAUSAGE GRAVY

Steps:

• For the biscuits: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda. With your fingers, work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles large crumbs. Mix in the buttermilk, stirring just until a dough forms.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and pat into a 1-inch-thick disk. Cut out 10 to 12 biscuits using a 2 1/2-inch cutter or a glass of equal size. Reuse the scraps.
• Arrange the biscuits on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush the tops with heavy cream and sprinkle with black pepper. Bake until golden brown and cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes.
• For the gravy: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook until browned, breaking it up into small pieces, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer the sausage to a bowl using a slotted spoon.
• Add the butter and flour to the skillet and cook, stirring, for about 1 minute. Pour in the milk, bring to a simmer, and cook until thickened, stirring and scraping the bottom of skillet constantly, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the reserved sausage and mix until fully combined.

CHEDDAR AND BLACK PEPPER BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Cut the butter into small dice and freeze until ready to use. Combine the flour, Cheddar, baking powder, pepper and salt in a bowl. Add the frozen butter and blend in using a pastry cutter until the butter is in pieces no larger than green peas. Add all of the buttermilk at once and stir with a wooden spoon until just combined. (The mixture will look a little dry and uneven.) Turn the dough onto a well-floured work surface and knead for 3 to 4 minutes to make a smooth dough; add flour as needed if the dough is too sticky.
• With well-floured hands and working on a well-floured surface, press the dough into a flat sheet, about 1 inch thick. Fold lengthwise into thirds (as you would fold a letter). Repeat this process 2 more times.
• After folding the dough the third time, roll the dough into a 3/4-inch-thick sheet using a rolling pin. Cut rounds out of the dough using a 3-inch cutter and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Gather the scraps and reroll until all the dough is used. (Cut biscuits can be refrigerated overnight.)
• Bake until golden and risen, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and immediately brush with melted butter and sprinkle with sea salt. Serve with Spiced Honey Butter.
• Combine the butter, honey, salt, garlic and cayenne in a mixing bowl. Beat with a wooden spoon or electric mixer until smooth. Transfer to ramekins, then chill to firm slightly, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the refrigerator 30 minutes before serving. Spiced Honey Butter keeps, tightly wrapped and refrigerated, up to 3 weeks.
