White Lily flour is made from soft wheat. That's why it makes good biscuits. Unlike King Arthur flour, which is made from hard wheat, and makes good bread.

Popeyes brushes melted butter on its biscuits once before cooking, and once after cooking. I do, too. That's really good! If you brush on too much before you bake it, it will run off the pan and onto the stove surface and set off the smoke alarm, that'll wake everyone up.

I use Bisquick, it works great. I could try the Cuisine recipe, see if it's better. They put in the cake flour because it's soft, same reason you like White Lily. I don't have White Lily but I do have cake flour.

The real trick to biscuits is in the mixing. I have made enough for the children that I have finally developed the touch.

I have been thinking about your chicken recipe, I want to try it. Two questions: what type of bird do you use, roaster, fryer or what? and do you scrub the lemon skin? Oh, and what temperature, I don't think you said, and do you use a rack, and how deep of a pan? I guess that's several questions. Do you salt the skin? Butter it?

Another question. About the biscuit recipe. I see it says "vegetable shortening." Do they mean Crisco? I think I have some in the freezer, and also some soybean margerine. Should I bring it to room temperature, do you suppose?
