ingredients
12 ounces enriched all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
6 tablespoons cold margarine or butter
3/4 cup buttermilk
1 egg, beaten
1/4 cup water, or as needed
directions
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
In a bowl, combine the flour, salt, sugar, baking powder, and margarine with a pastry cutter. Mix until the mixture is crumbly.
Stir in the buttermilk, egg, and just enough water to form a smooth dough.
Transfer the dough to a floured work surface. Roll the dough out to 1-inch thick. Cut the dough with a 2-inch biscuit cutter. Re-roll the scraps and repeat the process.
Place the biscuits on a baking sheet and bake at 425 degrees F for 12-15 minutes or until light golden brown.
Remove the biscuits from the oven and let cool slightly on a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature. Store the biscuits in an airtight container.

Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
