What is the most likely explanation for discolored and bitter-tasting biscuits?
What color are they? One possible explanation for the bitter taste is improperly mixing your baking powder. Baking powder has a bitter taste and since biscuits cook so quickly I think you may be not mixing your baking powder enough. Mix all your dry ingredients together with a whisk to make sure they are evenly blended. That means the salt, flour, and baking powder. Then add your butter or shortening followed by your milk. As far as the coloration goes you may need to be more specific. Are they grayish? Try a new baking sheet. Are they browning too quickly? Try lowering the temperature of your oven and increasing the cooking time. If they are anything other than those two colors then you have the strangest biscuits I've ever heard of.
