2 1/3 cups of all purpose flour
1/2 cup? of fine cornmeal
1 tablespoon of baking powder
1 teaspoon of baking soda
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1 teaspoon of sugar
1/2 cup of chilled butter or Crisco, cut into pieces
1 cup of buttermilk
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Place the flour, cornmeal, baking
powder, baking soda, salt and sugar in the bowl of a food processor fitted
with the metal blade. Process to blend, add the cut up Crisco or butter and
mix, using quick on and off pulses, to make a crumbly mixture. Then,
with the motor running, slowly pour in the buttermilk to make a firm but
not sticky dough (you might not need to use all of the buttermilk).

Remove from the processor and lay out on a lightly floured work surface.
Roll the dough with a lightly floured rolling pin, or pat it down with your
hand, until it is about 3/4-inch thick.

Cut the dough in typical rounds using a biscuit cutter or an
Old-Fashioned-size drinking glass, and place them on an un-greased
baking sheet close together (or place them one inch apart if you want
them crusty all over).

Lightly brush the tops of the biscuits with milk, and bake at 400 degrees
for 8 to 12 minutes or until they are lightly browned.
