Hi Dave,


 DD> And the Poms call their cookies "biscuits". But, we're 'Murricans, not
 DD> Swedes or Brits

No, but we have all kinds of wierd names for food, some of it very
regional. Soda, pop, co-cola and tonic water all describe the same drink
as do sub, hoagie, grinder and torpedo the same kind of sandwich. Also,
slump, grunt, cobbler and betty are all used for a similar dessert.


 DD>       Title: Whole Wheat Biscuit Mix - BHG
 DD>  Categories: Breads
 DD>       Yield: 48 Servings

 DD>       6 c  A-P flour *
 DD>       4 c  Whole wheat flour *
 DD>     1/3 c  Baking powder
 DD>     1/4 c  Sugar
 DD>       2 ts Salt
 DD>       2 c  Lard or Crisco shortening

 DD>   * It is permissible to play with proportions of white to
 DD>   whole-wheat up to just 10% white flour. Any less than 10%
 DD>   white flour does not seem to do well for some reason.

I do a baking mix that's 100% whole wheat flour that works out well for
me, maybe because I've used whole wheat flour for so long. May try
incorporating some whole wheat pastry flour next time I make it. Mine
also includes dry milk but no sugar.
