Vice President-elect JD Vance took some time away from the hustle and bustle of the holiday season and from his exhaustive efforts to prepare to take office to save our nation and to share a treasured family tradition with his family.
Vance, joined by the “world’s best three-year-old sous chef,” daughter Mirabel, made a batch of biscuits just like Mamaw taught him.
“Today, we are going to learn to make biscuits because I feel like biscuit-making is a lost art. And I think that every American family should have a biscuit on their table during Christmas dinner.”
“Mirabel here is going to help me. She is always my sous chef. We’re going to start with two cups of flour. My great-grandmother, Mamaw Bland, taught me the trick to a good biscuit is frozen butter. We have a frozen stick of butter here that I’m actually going to grate with a cheese grater. Two scoops of sugar into the flour.”
We have the rest of our dry ingredients here, so we’re going to need about three teaspoons, which is equivalent to one tablespoon of baking powder. Also a teaspoon of salt. Mommy and Ann are watching from behind the camera
