Sesame and Scallion Biscuits

How to make it

1. Preheat the oven to 425˚F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
2. Add the kosher salt, ground black pepper, baking powder, baking soda, granulated sugar, and all purpose flour to a bowl. Whisk to combine. Add in the chilled diced butter. Use the tips of your fingers to rub the flour into the butter until you get pea sized clumps.
3. Toss in the scallions and mix to combine. Create a well in the center of the mixture. Spoon the sour cream and Lee Kum Kee Pure Sesame Oil into the center of the well. Use a fork to combine the flour into the sour cream. Mix until the dough comes together. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Gently knead the dough until it comes together.
4. Pat the dough into an 8x4” rectangle. Fold the dough in thirds like a letter then pat it back into an 8x4” rectangle. Fold the dough in thirds again then pat it back out into an 8x4” rectangle. Cut the dough in half lengthwise then cut each half into 4 pieces so that you have a total of 8 pieces.
5. Place the biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops of the biscuits with the melted butter and sprinkle with flaky salt and sesame seeds. Bake the biscuits in the oven for 18-22 minutes until golden brown. Remove them from the oven and enjoy!
