Ingredients
  • 2½ cups all purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup butter, grated
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 2 tablespoons furikake seasoning
Eggwash
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon milk
Finishing
  • 1-2 tablespoons melted butter
  • Furikake seasoning
Directions:
  1. Preheat the oven to 425F.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, add flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until combined. Add grated butter and then mix with a pastry cutter until coarse crumbs form. Stir in the fuirkake seasoning and mix until combined.
  3. Make a hole in the center of the flour, then pour in buttermilk. Stir until everything is combined and appears crumbly.
  4. Place the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Use your hands to flatten the dough into a rectangle. Fold one side to the center, and then fold the second side to the center. Turn the dough so that the dough is long horizontally. Flatten the dough again. Then fold the two sides to the center again. Turn the dough so that it is long horizontally. Flatten and fold again. Repeat one more time.
  5. Roll the dough out with a rolling pin until about ½ inch thick. Use a biscuit cutter to cut the biscuits into about 2.5-3 inches in diameter. Roll out the scraps until you have about 9-12 biscuits. Arrange the biscuits in a 10 inch cast iron skillet or a parchment lined baking sheet. Make sure all the biscuits are touching.
  6. Mix together an egg and milk. Brush the eggwash over the tops of the biscuits to help the biscuits brown evenly.
  7. Bake the biscuits for about 15 minutes until the tops have turned a golden brown.
  8. Remove the biscuits from the oven. Brush melted butter on top and then sprinkle furikake seasoning over the biscuits.
  9. Serve the furikake buttermilk biscuits warm with butter if desired.
