This is very similar to an old recipe that I used to make. Mine called for
loaf sugar to be pressed into the top of each biscuit, then dampened with orange or lemon juice. Not sure when they stopped selling loaf sugar in this country but I couldn't get that then so I used a crushed sugar cube. Looks like I didn't even need to use that! Could have used the plain sugar. The sugar mixes with the juice and forms a thin, sweet topping. I shall now try it with the marmalade as I have some to use up. Not sure when I will make these. We have plenty of baked stuff but would like to make these before the weather gets hot again. These do freeze well. I kept a freezer full of them. Made for a quick breakfast. They defrost quickly. http://www.cooks.com/recipe/qp27n20x...-biscuits.html ENGLISH TEA BISCUITS 2 cups flour 4 tsp. baking powder 1 tsp. salt 5 tbsp. butter 3/4 cup milk or water 4 tbsp. orange juice or marmalade 2 tbsp. sugar Sift the first three ingredients together. Work butter into the flour with a fork or tips of fingers. Make a well in the center. Into this pour all the milk at once. Stir well for 20 seconds until all the flour is moistened. Toss on a floured board at once, knead for 20 seconds, pat or roll until 1/2-inch thick. Cut into rounds, place in pan. Combine orange juice and sugar together and press mixture into the top of each biscuit. Bake in hot oven (400°F) for 10 to 15 minutes. |
