Homemade Bisquick Baking Mix

- #10780
There's something about homemade Bisquick baking mix that just tastes better than the store-bought version. Maybe it's because you know exactly what's going into it, or maybe it's just being able to say you made it yourself. Either way, this recipe is a winner.

The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

I used this recipe with 2 differences, and it worked out great: 1) I used canola oil instead of shortening, and store it in a zip lock in the freezer, and 2) I used 1/2 white and 1/2 wheat flour.
Shamok: lard doesn't go bad and, if vaccum sealed it should store near indefinately - air is necessary for samonila to develop.
No review but a quick question. Can this mix be stored in vacuum sealed canning jars and how long would it last on the shelf? I am putting back food stuffs for hard times and I am trying to make all the mixes I can that will be shelf stable for extended periods of time.

I substituted butter (yes, I know it's not as healthy as some other alternatives, but I do know that it's not a transfat) and will simply store this in the refrigerator.
Why do you use shortening? It is a trans fat and definitely not good for your health.
Shortening can be stored at room temperature in solid form. Other ingredients would not keep their form (ie: melt) or could go rancid.

Following this recipe produced a mix that turned out biscuits just like Bisquick. I also substituted the mix in another "unfried chicken" recipe and it was delicious. This is a keeper. Thank you!
