- Gosh, I'm doing another video talking about Nita.
0:07
And I think Michael would rather tease her
0:12
than eat when he's hungry.
0:15
He'll walk into the restaurant and he'll say,
0:19
"Jelly Roll, you still work here?
0:23
It's only been 20 something years."
0:27
She's all, "get out of here."
0:29
What does she say to you, Michael?
0:31
- [Michael] "Shut up, Michael."
0:32
- "Shut up, Michael."
0:33
That's what she tells him.
0:36
And that just eggs him on more, you know?
0:39
But anyway, she would make mayonnaise biscuits
0:43
for the back of the house
0:46
when we were in our first location
0:50
'cause we worked so hard
0:54
and we didn't have time to really eat a meal
0:58
so she'd make treats like that for us
1:01
but Jamie adores her mayonnaise biscuits.
1:05
And it's funny 'cause I used to make these.
1:07
They're called easy rolls or something like that.
1:11
But I used to make them years ago
1:13
and I don't remember the kids saying,
1:15
"oh my gosh, that's my favorite biscuit."
1:18
But as Jamie has gotten older, he loves Nita's biscuit.
1:22
And these are real easy.
1:24
I'm starting with like two cups of self-rising flour
1:28
and I've got one cup of milk.
1:32
I think the recipe says add the milk first
1:37
but I'm gonna go ahead and add some sugar
1:41
'cause these are kind of a sweet biscuit.
1:44
And I'm just gonna add that cup of milk
1:48
to our two cups of flour.
1:53
And you have to have some kind of fat for a biscuit.
2:02
So we are gonna use mayonnaise
2:06
because mayonnaise has a lot of oil in it.
2:10
So let's see what it says.
2:12
I think it says use four.
2:15
Yeah, four heaping tablespoons of mayonnaise.
2:32
I get so tickled when that.
2:37
I'm weird, aren't I, Eddie?
2:42
- [Eddie] I think we're all weird.
2:50
Now, if you look up the recipe on the website,
2:53
it's gonna tell you to make this in muffin tins
2:58
which I don't ever recall Nita making 'em in a muffin tin.
3:05
She just made 'em straight on the pan.
3:09
But, so I got a muffin tin pulled out to show y'all
3:13
and they would be delicious in a miniature,
3:17
just a little bite of a biscuit with something
3:21
or you could do this size.
3:25
I don't know what that is.
3:26
But I think I'm just gonna do ours on a sheet pan.
3:30
But I am gonna, uh oh, this about empty.
3:36
- [Speaker] She's got another one.
3:40
- Yeah, I got some more but yeah.
3:42
See, I can always get a little goody out of it.
3:46
- [Speaker] I preach it.
3:49
- That's all right, Theresa, we're fine.
3:52
All right, now I have greased my, my ice cream scooper
4:01
so that dough will come right off of that.
4:06
This doesn't make very many but.
4:12
- [Theresa] Paula, is that the type of recipe
4:15
- [Paula] Oh gosh, yes.
4:16
- [Theresa] No problem? - [Paula] Oh yes.
4:22
- Yeah, you could double this easy.
4:30
But I'm making kind of big biscuits, you know?
4:37
Yeah, it's gonna make more than what you think.
4:44
I didn't start far enough at the end.
4:53
So I'll do it that way.
5:03
In honor of Nita today.
5:07
Thank ya. - [Theresa] You're welcome.
5:10
- You wanna stick that in the oven, Therese?
5:11
- [Theresa] Certainly.
5:13
- Oh, let's see how many.
5:14
It says I think like 12 or 15.
5:23
Looka here, looka here, y'all.
5:26
Nita's mayonnaise biscuits.
5:31
We're just doing a little splat of butter.
5:36
I went to buy the, yesterday I went to buy the butter that,
5:49
it's clarified for you.
5:50
It's got all the water cooked out of it.
5:54
It had jumped up in price.
6:03
I said no, I'll clarify my own butter
6:06
like I've done for years.
6:09
You know that, I just thought that was like awful,
6:15
All right, what do you kiddos want on your biscuit?
6:20
- [Theresa] Just butter.
6:23
You want a whole biscuit or half a biscuit?
6:29
Oh my gosh, look at that biscuit, y'all.
6:43
It's a little sweet because of the sugar.
6:46
If you don't want a sweet biscuit, leave out the sugar.
6:54
And wonderfully easy 'cause it involves no rolling out the,
6:58
all that stuff, having to cut in your shortening.
7:09
Jamie Deen's favorite mayonnaise biscuit.
7:19
I'm in biscuit heaven.
