      Title: Icebox Biscuits
 Categories: Breads, Dairy
      Yield: 18 Servings
 
      1 pk Active dry yeast
    1/4 c  Warm water (105ºF-115ºF)
      5 c  All-purpose flour
      1 tb Baking powder
      1 ts Baking soda
    1/4 c  Granulated sugar
      1 tb Kosher salt
    3/4 c  Lard; chilled
           +=OR=+
    1/2 c  Shortening
           +=PLUS=+
    1/4 c  Butter; chilled
      2 c  Buttermilk; chilled
      3 tb Melted butter
 
  Set oven @ 450ºF/232ºC.
  
  Dissolve the yeast in the warm water, let stand 5 minutes.
  
  In bowl combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar,
  and salt. Whisk to mix well. Using your fingers, quickly
  work chilled lard into dry ingredients until flour mixture
  resembles large peas. Stir in dissolved yeast and
  buttermilk; mix just until well blended.
  
  Turn dough onto floured surface; knead six or seven times.
  Roll out to 1/2" thickness. Pierce rolled dough completely
  through at 1/2" intervals with floured dinner fork. Cut
  out biscuits with 2-1/2" to 3" cutter, taking care not to
  twist cutter, which will seal the sides of the biscuit and
  inhibit rising.
  
  Place biscuits on greased baking sheets, about 1/2" apart.
  Cover with tea towel; let rise 30 to 45 minutes, until
  almost doubled.
  
  Bake in preheated oven 10 to 12 minutes, rotating pan
  halfway through baking, until biscuits are golden brown.
  Remove from oven. Brush generously with melted butter.
  Serve hot.
  
  Makes about 2-1/2 dozen biscuits.
  
  MAKE AHEAD: Dough can be made ahead and stored tightly
  wrapped in the refrigerator for 3 days in advance. After
  rolling and cutting the refrigerated dough, you don't have
  to wait for the biscuits to fully rise before baking, but
  you should allow them to come to room temperature first.
  
  Makes: 18 servings
