Mini Pickle Biscuits Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F.
• Sift the flour and salt together into a bowl Add the lard and cut together with a pastry cutter. Use a fork to stir in the buttermilk gently. Gently knead the dough a few times, adding more flour if you need to.
• Roll out the dough and cut out biscuits with a small round cutter. Place on baking sheets and bake for 10 minutes. Brush with butter when you remove them from the oven.
• Serve with slices of Christmas ham.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Toss butter into flour mixture to evenly coat, then work between your fingers to incorporate butter into mixture.
• Drizzle buttermilk over flour-butter mixture (to evenly distribute) while stirring with a fork. Stop stirring when dough begins to form but mixture is still crumbly. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Gather dough with your hands, pressing firmly to bind, and flatten into a 5-by-7-inch rectangle, about 3/4 inch thick. Fold dough in half, turn 90 degrees, and fold again.
• Press dough into a 5-inch square, about 1 inch thick. Use a serrated knife to cut into 4 equal biscuits and separate, so there are a few inches between formed biscuits. Brush tops with buttermilk.
• Bake until biscuits are puffed and golden and hollow-sounding when tapped on bottoms, 16 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a basket lined with a clean kitchen towel to keep warm. Serve with honey and salted butter.

Steps:

• Place flour in a bowl; cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in sour cream until just until moistened. , Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls into ungreased miniature muffin cups. Bake at 450° for 11-15 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees, with a rack in lower third. Prepare an ice-water bath. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Trim 1/4 inch off root end of each onion, then cook onions in pot until just beginning to soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to ice-water bath, slip off skins, and cut into quarters. (Quartered onions can be refrigerated up to 2 days.)
• Stir together molasses, brown sugar, honey, mustard, allspice, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Place ham in a large roasting pan, cut-side down; baste generously with glaze. Scatter onions around ham and pour in 1/2 cup water.
• Cover ham with parchment-lined foil; roast until a thermometer inserted into thickest part (not touching bone) reads 125 degrees, 1 hour to 1 hour, 15 minutes. Uncover, baste with more glaze, and return to oven. Increase heat to 400 degrees and roast, basting and rotating pan once, until outside is crisp, 15 to 20 minutes more. Transfer to a serving platter; tent with foil.
• Return roasting pan with onions to oven; roast until sauce has thickened slightly and onions are caramelized, 15 to 20 minutes more. Transfer onions and pan drippings to a serving vessel; skim fat from top. Serve ham with biscuits, mustard, onions, apples, and parsley.
