    Crusty Buttermilk Biscuits

    Use the lightest flour you can find with lard distributed throughout the layers. The more random the shortening placement, the more pockets for steam—exactly what you want for the ultimate flaky biscuit. When cutting the biscuits, be sure not to twist the cutter.

    Parker House Rolls

    Easter ham's sweetness is just right with yeasty Parker House rolls. Create this visual effect by shingling the unbaked, risen dough with about a 1/4" overhang.

    Ultra-Buttery Irish Scones

    A successful scone or biscuit all comes down to butter choice. For these currant-flecked Irish scones, use a high-quality butter like Kerrygold.
