Key to making any American style biscuits fluffy is having all “wet” ingredients cold .. the butter has to be cold cold (not softened) and the liquid has to be cold too. Same technique is used for good scones. I like using two butter knives to “cut” the butter into the dry ingredients. It works the same as a pastry mixer. use the knives crossways moving your hands in opposite directions until you create a mixture that resembles coarse cornmeal. I would almost want to add the dill to the dry ingredients.

These are almost like the Jeera Biscuits, but those were biscuits as in cookies. Are these like the American Biscuits that you have with gravy ?

Sandeepa, yes these are the American biscuits that is used with gravy. Unfortunately these did not puff up and hence give the appearance of Jeera/Cumin biscuits

Dill & biscuits combo sounds unique. Knowing the dill flavor I am sure it will taste great…

I make these all the time, except that I use cilanthro and green chillies in it. I do make dill bread though. Nice pictures.

Hm..biscuits are supposed to be tricky and I think they’re just one of those things that are hard to get right on the first shot. They do look lovely though..the dill in them looks really good.

If you were looking for the texture of the American biscuit they might not have been what you expected but otherwise they look pretty good and if they tasted good, you did come up with a new Indian style biscuit then!

LOL! That is a good way of looking at things!Love that sunny spirit!
