CALLIE'S CHARLESTON BISCUITS
Cheese & Chive Biscuits
CALLIE'S PETITE BISCUITS SCORE THEIR BIG FLAVOR from sharp cheddar
cheese and fresh chives. But the real secret, says co-owner Carrie Morey, is
the dough—which is always kneaded by hand. "A machine will overwork the
dough, yet by hand you know when it's ready to go in the oven," explains
Morey, daughter of Callie White, the Charleston, S.C., caterer who founded
her namesake company in 2005. Since then, these tender biscuits have been
earning raves from Southern-food fans.
"The cheddar and chive variety comes from my mom's original recipe,
and it's a top seller, along with our buttermilk biscuit," says Morey. "It has
a perfect blend of savory flavors, made with nothing but flour and butter
and completely natural ingredients." The biscuits come frozen, ready to be
reheated and served hot, "the way biscuits are meant to be eaten, before
room temperature changes their texture," Morey notes. Suggested retail
price: $14.95–$19.95/15 ounces. Contact: Carrie Morey; 843.577.1198; carrie@
