savory pickle brine biscuits aka tender vegan scones

2018/04/13 By Melinda 2 Comments

Five ingredients, twenty minutes, tender, flavorful. These pickle brine biscuits, lined with a green layer of pesto, just happen to be vegan. I’ve been happy to test and re-test this recipe over the last few days. These make an amazing lid for egg salad (or its faux egg alternative if vegan is your thing). My […]

Blue Cheese Green Chile Scones

2017/07/26 By Melinda Leave a Comment

I never make the same biscuit twice. The liquid varies depending on what’s in the fridge, sometimes yogurt (the European variety, thinner than it’s American or Greek cousins) or buttermilk, if all I have is plain milk I vary the acids added. I doubled up for these Blue Cheese Green Chile Scones because I wanted […]

Green Chile and Cheese Biscuits and Home Economics

2014/12/08 By Melinda 3 Comments

Smoked paprika, fresh ground black pepper, roasted green chilies, and healthy sized chunks of cheddar cheese make these biscuits assertive enough to take on bully eggs or aloof winter soups.   I remember three things about high school home economics: chocolate chip cookies to warm up the room in winter and getting a “D” in […]

charred tomato and poblano biscuits

2014/08/01 By Melinda Leave a Comment

charred tomato poblano biscuits

  The tomatoes have finally arrived. After seemingly endless weeks of staring at green tomatoes things have finally started to turn. Straight up, on the rocks, I want to put them in everything. These biscuits are tasty on their own and over the top with gravy. I made a sausage gravy with tomatillos and cilantro […]
