2062. KIMCHI, BACON and FULVI PECORINO ROMANO BISCUITS

3 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 cup cold butter
1 cup fulvi pecorino romano cheese
6 slices bacon, chopped
3/4 cup diced kimchi, squeezed of its juices
2 cups buttermilk

Preheat oven to 425º. Sift the flour, baking powder & soda, salt and garlic powder together and using a pastry cutter or two knives cut butter until only bits are visible. Add the Fulvi Pecorino Romano Cheese. Mix well. Bake bacon in convection oven lined with parchment paper at 375º until crispy, chop into bite size pieces and add to the mixture. Add the buttermilk. Mix well. Squeeze the kimchi of its juices, chop and add to the mixture and mix well until a dough forms.

On a lightly floured surface place the dough and pat and form the dough to about 2 inch thickness. Add more flour if your dough seems a bit wet. Using a floured biscuit cutter cut the dough and place on lined baking sheet and bake for about 15-20 minutes or until biscuits appear golden.
