Thanks, I learned something here.
I always thought a biscuit was just something you could use for hockey if you couldn't find a puck.

I am so glad as a group you took a little notice on the article! Occasionally I feel a little ignored. This article impacted me so much I drove for an hour into Maryland to pick up 2 pounds of White Lilly and I am not a southerner. We have made two batches and my wife is clearly confused. both batches were baked and turned out well and were not hockypucks. We are adjusting the recipe. My thoughts are to adjust the recipe to Scones eventually. Huge thanks!
CANT WAIT TO ADAPT THIS TO THE TRAIL!

For scones, I use 3 cups bread flour and 1 cup cake flour. (I always double my recipe)Wise Old Owl wrote:

I’ve got some White Lily but don’t use it much. I’ll have to try it in my scones.
Obviously, I have a baking problem.

Well I am enthusiastic about putting this together,,,, and that is a lot of happy when it comes to this old curmudgeon.

Yeah, I think the white lily could replace the cake flour and maybe even the bread flour. Cake flour has a low protein content and is made from sort winter wheat...the same as White Lily.Wise Old Owl wrote:

Y’all have me craving biscuits, maybe I’ll make some on Saturday.

No biscuits this morning. After working 50 ish hours, I slept till 8:30, very late for me.
But! I made scones using 1/2 White Lily and 1/2 all purpose flour, 2 cups of each. (Sorry, I think my previous post says I use bread flour but that isn’t true)
Anyway, the scones rose much higher than normal when baking. My eyes bulged when I saw them...worried they would be too fluffy but they are great. The texture is about the same as normal but maybe lighter(?). It’s hard to describe. They are really good though, which is a relief since my last two batches were failures.
