Comments
This Master Mix is easy to prepare and keep in the refrigerator for quick pancakes and biscuits.
I have used this recipe to make dumplings for my chicken dumpling soup. I use milk instead of water for my liquid but this recipe works great.
I am very interested in this "Master Mix". I am wondering what all one can use it for? Are there certain Food Hero recipes that it is meant for? Can one use it in other various recipes?
Thank you!
