These buttermilk biscuits are incredibly simple to make, featuring a minimal amount of shortening while relying on full-fat buttermilk to ensure the perfect texture. Once baked, you achieve a delightful contrast between the crunchy exterior and the fluffy, tender interior that makes these biscuits truly exceptional.
"Similar to yogurt, buttermilk can be a great ingredient in an ice cream base because it has a lot of its proteins and nutrients condensed. The tricky part with buttermilk is that the high-acidity can start to denature (curdle) the other dairy components in the recipe."
