Preheat oven to 450 degrees. For 9 thicker biscuits, grease a square 8" or 9" pan. For 12 biscuits, grease a 10x13 pan. Sift dry ingredients. Cut in shortening with pastry cutter or with a fork. When shortening is incorporated, add buttermilk and mix with a fork, being careful not to overmix. Sprinkle flour on dough board. Knead dough until smooth, no more than 8-10 times. For 12 biscuits, roll dough to about 5/8" thick. For 9 biscuits (8x8 pan) roll dough to about 1" thick. Place in pan and bake for about 15 minutes, or until done.
