📝 Preparation Steps

Biscuits
2
Pulse 2 Tbsp. (heaping) sugar, 2¾ tsp. baking soda, 1½ tsp. baking powder, 1½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1 tsp. Morton kosher salt, and 5 cups (625 g) all-purpose flour in a food processor to combine. Add ¾ cup (1½ sticks) plus 1 Tbsp. chilled unsalted butter, cut into pieces, and pulse until mixture resembles coarse sand. Add remaining ¾ cup (1½ sticks) plus 1 Tbsp. chilled unsalted butter, cut into pieces, and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal with some pea-size pieces of butter. Transfer to a large bowl and drizzle 2 cups buttermilk over, tossing with a fork to incorporate. Knead a few times in bowl until a shaggy dough forms. Turn out dough onto a generously floured surface and pat into a 10x7½" rectangle about 1" thick. Using a bench scraper, fold dough into thirds like folding a letter, then turn seam side down, rotate 90°, and gently roll out to 1" thick. Repeat folding and rolling process 2 more times. Transfer dough to a baking sheet and freeze ⏱️ 10 minutes. Fold and roll 2 more times, then freeze another ⏱️ 10 minutes.
