-
3 cups all-purpose flour
4 tsp granulated sugar

1-1/2 tsp dried savory
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 cup cold butter, cubed
1-1/2 cups buttermilk
Topping:
1 tbsp buttermilk
1 tsp Dijon mustard

Preparation
Using pastry blender or 2 knives, cut in butter until crumbly. Drizzle with buttermilk, tossing with fork until mixture clumps into soft dough.

Place biscuits, 2 inches (5 cm) apart, on parchment paper–lined baking sheet. Bake in 425ºF (220ºC) oven until light golden, 12 to 15 minutes.
