Re: Sweet potato biscuits

I watched a documentary with a friend of mine the other day called The Rise of the Southern Biscuit and went online to see what else I could find out about it. If you love biscuits, you will love this website. Here is the page for their sweet potato biscuits. Remember, when you are cutting a biscuit using a biscuit cutter, dip the cutter in flour before cutting and NEVER twist the cutter on the dough.

If you aren't a nut about shape, pat the kneaded dough into a rectangle and cut squares with a floured Ginsu knife. Untraditional shape, but nothing wasted.

Best biscuit I ever ate: at Tasty & Sons in Portland, Oregon.

As someone who has recently been thrust into the role of head (only) cook, can I ask why not "twist the cutter on the dough?"
