More dill

The other recipe I tried using dill was for biscuits, which I've never made before. These biscuits were good, but the butter was amazing... the biscuit ended up being more of a mechanism for eating the butter than a food itself.


Dill Biscuits
makes about 12

2c all-purpose flour
1t baking powder
1/4t baking soda
1t fine salt
12T cold butter, diced
2T chopped fresh dill
1/2c buttermilk

Preheat oven to 425.
Pulse flour, baking powder and soda, and salt. Add butter and pulse to pea-sized pieces.
Add dill and pulse in buttermilk until dough just comes together.
Transfer to a floured surface and knead 3-5 times. Shape into a disk.
Roll dough until 1/2" thick.
Cut into rounds using a cookie cutter or a glass.
Place on a baking sheet and brush tops with buttermilk.
Bake until golden, 10-12 minutes.

Honey Butter

4T butter, softened
2t honey
1/4t sea salt

Mix all ingredients together until smooth.
