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.

Sweet Potato Biscuits

1 medium – large sweet potato,
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for kneading and shaping
2 tablespoons light-brown sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
6 tablespoons chilled unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1/3 cup buttermilk

Peel and dice the sweet potato. Place in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook the potato until tender. Drain the water and mash the potato into a puree. (you should end up with about ¾ – 1 cup) Place the puree in a refrigerator for at least and hour until chilled.

Preheat oven to 425 degrees

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. Cut in butter and knead until mixture resembles coarse meal, with some pea-sized lumps of butter remaining. In a small bowl, whisk together sweet potato purée and buttermilk; stir quickly into flour mixture until just combined.

Pour out the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead very gently until dough comes together but is still slightly lumpy. (If dough is too sticky, you can add a little extra flour.) Roll the dough out to 1-inch thickness. Using a biscuit cutter or a glass, but out the biscuits and place on a greased baking sheet. Gather together scraps, and repeat to cut out more biscuits. Arrange biscuits snugly in pan (to help them stay upright) and brush with melted butter. Bake until golden, 20 to 24 minutes.

Do you mean Cope's Dried Sweet Corn?

Scroll down the page to Baked Corn Casserole. It's basically corn custard, which is what corn pudding is.

I haven't tried it but I heard about it on another forum.
