1/4 cup shortening
2 cups flour
1 tbsp. sugar, if you like (which I do)
3 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
roughly 3/4 cup milk

Sometimes I add grated cheddar cheese after I blend the dry ingredients or
even while I’m kneading -depends when I think of it)

Cut shortening into flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. When mixture
resembles small crumbs add milk, but not all at once. Only add enough so
that the dough leaves the side of the bowl. Too much and the dough will not
cook through, too little and the biscuits will be dry- if they don’t fall
apart first. You’ll feel the right texture.

Knead on floured counter about 20 times and roll to about 1/2″ thick.
Cut out at about 2″ wide (a bit more or less doesn’t matter – at Christmas
I use Christmas cookie cutters and when I’m lazy I just cut the flattened
dough in rectangles with a knife).

Place on ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 10 min. or until golden on
to. (In my oven I have to watch the bottoms) If you like, you can brush
with butter an sprinkle with Parmesan cheese just before pulling out.

You can also use up that buttermilk, just cut baking powder to 1/4 tsp
salt to 1/4 tsp and add 1/4 tsp baking soda, then use buttermilk instead
of milk.

Title: HOMEMADE TERIYAKI MARINADE
Categories: Oriental, Sauces and , Ceideburg 2
Yield: 1 servings

1 c Brown Sugar
1 c Soy Sauce
1 c Sake — * see note
Fresh Ginger Root — grated
Garlic Cloves —
Diced/pressed

* or dry white wine or vodka.
put thin cut strip steak or chicken parts (especially
huge quantities of wings) in marinade and soak
overnight. Best if grilled on the BBQ, but can be
baked (usual meat 350 F for an hour a lb.) For the
truly lazy (we prefer to think of ourselves as the
“time-challenged”, Italian dressing on a (cheap) steak
adds more variety to the flavor. I can’t verify any
tenderizing qualities, though.
NOTES:
The only marinade I’ve seen that tenderizes the meat
is a homemade Teriyaki recipe a college roommate from
Hawaii used. I think it was the high alcohol content.
