These cheddar and scallion biscuits were one of my favorite bakes during the pandemic. The recipe comes from Chef Mei Lin. I cheered her on as she won her season of Top Chef and I’ve been fortunate enough to have met her for work and when I’ve traveled to LA. You must try the cod fish sando at her casual Chinese eatery, daybird in Silverlake. It’s a gourmet filet o’ fish and it’s amazing. Now that you’ve got a food rec, back to biscuits!
She posted about the cheddar and scallion biscuits on Instagram, and I was immediately mesmerized by the gorgeous cross-section. My first batch got turned out decently but the biscuits were a bit lopsided, so after troubleshooting with Mei and getting some great tips that I’ve shared below, my second batch was fantastic. That’s the photo above. Hope you love them as much as I do.
