An island, in a lake, in a volcano, on an island, in the ocean

Taal and its people on my mind. 

A Family Favorite

From KCET's website, May 11, 2012

My photo of biscuits (baked and photographed in 2010) was featured in KCET's website under the Food and Living Section. It accompanied a recipe for vegan Savory or Sweet Mini-Biscuits. I think it's a little weird to post a recipe with a photo of a finished product that was not made from the recipe being featured. I'm a little curious why they didn't take photos of their biscuits if they did make the recipe. Then again, maybe someone thought my photo might encourage readers to make their biscuits  and maybe my photo offered a good representation of what the final bake could (should?) be like. That doesn't seem so bad... right?

I recently made a batch of biscuits for breakfast, to be the base for some creamy sausage gravy. My favorite biscuit recipe is Alton Brown's Southern Biscuits (not vegan) with a minor alteration. I use all butter instead of half shortening/half butter for the fats, since I don't really have a use for vegetable shortening outside of this recipe and Eric and I think the biscuits turn out just fine.
