Title: Sourdough Biscuits
Categories: Breads, Sourdough
Yield: 15 Servings

1 3/4 c All purpose flour; extra
-for kneading
2 tb Sugar
3 ts Baking Powder
1/4 c Oil or melted shortening
1 ts Salt
1 1/2 c Sourdough Starter
1 ts Baking Soda *

* More Baking Soda may be added for very sour starter.

Combine starter and oil in mixing bowl; stir in dry ingredients, adding a
little more flour if needed, until dough can be handled. Decant to floured
board and knead until dough has a smooth, satiny appearance, about 5
minutes. Additional flour will be needed to keep dough from sticking to
hands or kneading surface.

Pat dough to 1/2 inch thickness, and cut biscuits to desired size. Place
about 2 tbs oil in a 7x12x1 1/2 inch pan; dip biscuits in oil, then turn
over and dip other side. Place biscuits lightly touching each other in pan.

Let rise in a warm place for about 1/2 hour. Bake at 425F for about 12 -
15 minutes or until nicely browned.
