HI NANCY I enjoy the newsletter and have never
contributed before. This recipe,
"Wine Biscuits"
is a very old recipe made by my Italian grandmother , my mother , and now me .
I'm sure it was made by my great grandmothers as well. Here it is : It's very
easy and delicious . Dee / R.I. & Fl
Wine Biscuits
4 cups flour
1 cup sugar
4 tsp baking powder
1 cup oil ( I usually use corn or corn blend)
1 cup cheap wine (red)
Preheat oven to 425 degrees
Mix flour , sugar, baking powder in large bowl. Mix thoroughly and form a "well"
in center of the dough.
Pour oil and red wine in "well". Stir thoroughly and then with your hands I
knead and stir the dough more (in the bowl). Then take a small portion of the
dough mixture and roll about two or three inches long then place on ungreased
cookie sheet and turn the two ends together . I brush with an egg wash . bake
about 20 minutes . Top will be lightly browned . Makes about 40 45 biscuits.
Just delicious --can't stop eating them
