Combine dry ingredients in bowl. Using fingers, two knives, or flour cutter, mix in the cold shortening until mixture is coarse. Add milk and mix with fork until mixture forms a soft ball. Do NOT overmix. Pour out onto floured surface and pat ball until it is about ½ inch thick. Cut with biscuit cutter. Do not twist. Overmixing and twisting the cutter will result in tough biscuits.
