2 c. all purpose flour
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 c. butter
1/2 c. buttermilk
1 c. sourdough starter
Melted butter

Sift together flour, salt and baking powder. Using a pastry blender or fork, cut in butter until mixture resembles cornmeal. Mix together buttermilk and starter with a fork, stir mixture until a soft dough is formed that cleans the sides of the bowl. Turn out onto floured surface and knead gently for 30 seconds. Roll dough to form a circle 1/2 inch thick. Cut biscuits with round cutter. Place in lightly greased baking pan with sides touching. Brush tops with melted butter. Cover and let rest for 30 minutes. Bake at 425 degrees for 12 to 15 minutes. Makes 12 to 15 biscuits.
