Work in fat with tips of fingers, or cut in with two knives. Add the liquid gradually, mixing with a knife in a soft dough. Owing to differences in flour, it is impossible to determine the exact amount of liquid. Toss on a floured board, pat and roll lightly to 1/2-inch in thickness. Shape with a biscuit cutter. Bake at 450 for 12-15 minutes.
