"The tradition of Italian cooking is that of the matriarch. This is the cooking of grandma. She didn't waste time thinking too much about the celery. She got the best celery she could and then she dealt with it."--Mario Batali

Directions:
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Lightly grease a baking sheet. Place flour in a medium bowl using a pastry blender (or fingers) cut in crisco until crumbly. Add milk, stirring just enough until dry ingredients are moistened. I use my hands on a floured surface, roll dough to 1/2 inch thickness. Using a small 1 1/2" (round) star cutter, cut biscuits and place 1/2 inch apart on baking sheet. Bake 12-14 minutes or until lightly browned. Brush with melted butter.
