Notes

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!
