Mamas Mayonnaise Biscuits
Ingredients:
oil, canola
wheat flour, white, all-purpose, unenriched
salad dressing, mayonnaise, regular
milk, fluid, 1% fat, without added vitamin a and vitamin d
sugars, granulated
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350F.
Brush a 12-cup medium muffin tin with oil.
Combine the flour, mayonnaise, milk, and sugar in a bowl.
Using a spoon or an ice cream scoop, spoon dough into each muffin cup, filling about half full.
Alternatively, drop spoonfuls of the dough onto a greased baking sheet.
Bake until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.
Transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly, then invert the biscuits onto the rack to cool until warm.
Serve warm.
Wheat flour contains two proteins, glutenin and gliadin.
When you combine flour with water, the proteins create a strong and elastic sheet called gluten.
Flours vary in their protein levels, which affects the texture of baked goods.
Gluten gives structure to yeast breads, but is not recommended for tender cakes, biscuits, and quick breads.
Southern all-purpose flour is milled from soft red winter wheat that has less gluten-forming protein.
It is typically bleached, which makes it whiter, but this does not affect the protein.
My family has always used White Lily flour, a staple across the South; another dependable Southern brand is Martha White.
Most national brands of all-purpose flour are a combination of soft winter wheat and higher-protein hard summer wheat.
White Lily contains approximately nine grams of protein per cup of flour, whereas national brands can contain eleven or twelve grams of protein per cup of flour.
If you live outside the South, White Lily is available online or in some specialty shops in other parts of the country.
For results similar to those of Southern flour, substitute one part all-purpose flour and one part cake flour for the amount of Southern flour in a recipe.
Finally, high-protein flour absorbs more liquid than does low-protein flour; if you attempt to make biscuits with a high-protein flour, you will need to add more liquid.
Self-rising flour is all-purpose flour that is low in protein and contains a leavening agent and salt.
It is widely available in the South, but less so in other regions of the country.
If you have a recipe that calls for self-rising flour, use the following formula to convert all-purpose into self-rising: to 1 cup of Southern all-purpose flour, add 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt.
