Golden Sourdough Buttermilk Biscuits

2 cups of unsifted flour
1 teaspoon of salt
1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
1 teaspoon of baking powder
1/2 cup of butter
1/2 cup of buttermilk
1 cup of sourdough starter mix

In a bowl combine flour, soda, salt, baking powder, cut in butter with pastry blender until like corn meal.

(At this point, you can put it in the fridge overnight so it's faster in the morning.)

Blend sourdough and buttermilk, stir into crumb mixture with fork to soft dough.

Turn out onto floured cloth; knead 30 seconds. Roll out into 1/2 inch thickness, cut into biscuits with 3 inch cutter.

Place on greased baking sheet, brush with melted butter and put in warm place to raise for 30 minutes covered with a towel.

Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden in 425ºF. oven. Good with honey and butter.
