Wiregrass Tsiis Biscuits
Wiregrass is in honor of the unique region of Alabama we call home and ‘Tsiis’ is pronounced ‘Cheese’ in our native language Frisian. Our award-winning farmstead cheese, flavored with a traditional Dutch blend of chives, parsley, onion, and garlic, is the perfect compliment to these buttery biscuits.

You will need Working Cows Dairy grass fed organic butter, whole milk, and Wiregrass Tsiis. Start by shredding about 5 oz. of cheese.
Measure all dry ingredients in a chilled bowl. Cut the butter into the dry ingredients until only coarse crumbs remain.
Add the milk all at once and gently combine by 'patting' with a rubber spatula or floured hands. Then add shredded wiregrass cheese. Do not overmix!
Turn dough onto a floured surface and pat or roll into a 3/4" thick disk.
Using a 2.5" biscuit cutter, start at the edge and work around to maximize the number of first-pat biscuits. Pat the remaining dough scraps one more time and cut a few more biscuits.
Bake on a sheet tray or cast iron skillet at 400F for about 15-20 minutes, or until golden.
Enjoy with butter, fried chicken, or as a side dish with any meal!
