The UK don't really have the american style "biscuit" or "biscuits and gravy". The closest thing to it would either be a crusty bread roll, or a scone (or a fusion of the two).The Americans have got this one badly wrong, however. The word "biscuit" is french, and comes from the latin "bis coctus" (bis=twice, coctus=cook). The literal translation in both french and latin means "cooked twice" - which of course the american "biscuit" is NOT cooked twice... so maybe a new word is required for them :p
Light biscuits are made of ingredients similar to regular biscuits, but are baked quickly in a very hot oven such that they have golden brown top and bottom with white sides, while their interior is still white, light and soft but not brown, dense and crispy as in regular biscuits. They are done when they are nicely browned and a toothpick inserted in the center of the core comes out clean.
