How to make this recipe:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Mix together the flour, salt and baking powder. Cut the butter into it until it resembles pea-size lumps. Add the sugar and stir in the buttermilk, one half cup at a time, until the mixture holds together as a dough. Turn out onto floured surface and knead lightly. Cut with biscuit cutter and place on baking sheet on top of parchment or waxed paper.
