Preparation
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl sift together flour, baking powder, and salt.
Cut in shortening with a fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Step 2
Pour milk into the flour mixture while stirring with a fork.
Mix in the milk until the dough is soft, and moist and pulls away from the side of the bowl.
