Duff Goldman's Pro Tip For Baking Biscuits
By MARGARET MCCORMICK
Despite his Food Network fame and status as a superstar baker, pastry guru and cookbook author Duff Goldman, a.k.a. Ace of Cakes, has a down-to-earth personality. Recently on Twitter, Goldman humbly shared a secret for baking biscuits that don't get tipsy during the process.
A Twitter user reached out to Goldman, writing, "Why are my biscuits tipping over? They are otherwise moist and wonderful!” Although Goldman could have just asked the user to pick up a copy of "Duff Bakes: Think and Bake Like a Pro at Home” — which is filled with recipes for cakes, cookies, brownies, bread, biscuits, and more — he didn’t.
Instead, the busy baker, who clearly is also an Ace of Biscuits, replied with a tried and tested kitchen hack, explaining "When I bake biscuits, I put them on the pan so they are juuust [sic] touching each other. Keeps 'em growing up instead of sideways.” He signed off with the hashtag #AceOfTaste.
