RAMP AND BUTTERMILK BISCUITS WITH CRACKED CORIANDER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Mix buttermilk and ramps in small bowl. Mix flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper in processor. Add chilled butter to processor; using on/off turns, cut in butter until fine meal forms. Transfer flour mixture to medium bowl. Add buttermilk mixture; stir until dough forms. Turn dough out onto lightly floured work surface and press out to 7-inch round, about 1/2 inch thick. Using 2-inch-diameter biscuit cutter dipped in flour, cut out rounds. Gather dough scraps; press out to 1/2-inch thickness and cut out additional rounds. Transfer dough rounds to baking sheet. Brush biscuit tops with some of egg glaze. Sprinkle with cracked coriander seeds. Bake biscuits until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Cool on rack. Serve slightly warm or at room temperature.

CORIANDER BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F In a small bowl, stir together buttermilk and lemon peel. In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, coriander, baking soda, salt and pepper. Cut in butter, using your fingers, 2 knives or a pastry cutter until mixture resembles coarse meal.
• Make a well in center of flour mixture and pour in buttermilk mixture. Toss with a fork, scraping dry ingredients from bottom until just evenly moistened; do not overmix (dough should be very sticky). Turn dough out onto a floured surface and knead lightly once or twice with floured hands. Pat dough to 3/4-inch thickness, about 10 inches in diameter.
• Dip a 2 1/2-inch biscuit cutter into flour and cut out biscuits, dipping cutter into flour before cutting each biscuit and using a straight in-and-out motion. Gather and re-pat scraps; cut out remaining biscuits. Transfer biscuits to an ungreased baking sheet and bake, rotating pan halfway through, until golden, 12 to 15 minutes. Serve warm.

PISTACHIO & CORIANDER SEED BISCUITS

Steps:

• Beat the sugar with the butter until pale and creamy. Add the egg, flour, ground pistachios, ground coriander seeds and 1/2 tsp salt and beat to a smooth paste. Put in a piping bag or cover with cling film and chill in the fridge for 2 hrs.
• Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3 and line two large baking sheets with baking parchment. Pipe (or spoon) 5cm lengths about 1.5 cm wide onto the paper, leaving a few cm between each biscuit. Garnish with the chopped pistachios and whole coriander seeds and bake for 10-15 mins until golden at the edges. Turn off the oven and leave the biscuits inside for 20-30 mins, then remove and leave for 5-10 mins until so crisp they slide off the sheet. Cool fully before serving. Try pairing with our strawberry labneh, or you can keep in an airtight container for 2-3 days.

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
• Combine the powdered hot chocolate, sugar, baking powder, oats, and flour. Mix in the butter or margarine.
• Beat the eggs with the milk. Stir the beaten eggs into the flour mixture and mix until combined.

OYSTER BISCUITS

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place flour, salt, baking powder, cumin or coriander, and cayenne in bowl of food processor fitted with the metal blade; pulse to combine. Add butter or shortening; pulse until coarse crumbs form. With machine running, add milk slowly through the feed tube, just until dough comes together.
• Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface, and knead one or two times, until smooth. Roll out to 1/4-inch thick. Sprinkle with salt, and roll lightly to make it adhere. Using a 1 1/2-inch round or octagonal cookie cutter, cut out dough, and transfer to an ungreased baking sheet. Gather together scraps, and reroll to cut out additional biscuits, if desired. Bake until golden, about 20 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack to cool slightly before serving.
