💡Tips
1. Watch The Baking Time Closely
They should be golden brown on the outside when they’re done. If you’re not sure, you can gently lift one biscuit with a spatula – the bottom should be browned as well. If they’re not quite done, put them back in for a couple more minutes and check again.
Be careful not to overbake them, as they can become dry and too crispy. Remember that the biscuits will continue to firm up a bit as they cool, so it’s okay if they’re still slightly soft when you take them out of the oven.
2. Let Biscuits Cool Before Adding Salmon
After you take the biscuits out of the oven, it’s important to let them cool for a few minutes before you add the smoked salmon.
If the biscuits are too hot, they might cause the salmon to release moisture, which could make your biscuits soggy.
Let them cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack if you have one.
This allows air to circulate around the biscuits and helps them cool evenly. Once they’re just warm to the touch, you can slice them and add the smoked salmon.

FAQ
1. How do I know when the biscuits are done baking?
The biscuits should be golden brown on top and feel firm when you gently press the center. If they’re still soft in the middle, they need more time.
Don’t just rely on the time given in the recipe – ovens can vary. Check them at 15 minutes, and if they’re not golden brown yet, give them a few more minutes.
2. Why are my biscuits falling apart?
If your biscuits are crumbly, there are a few likely causes. First, your pork rind crumbs might be too coarse – they need to be fine for the biscuits to hold together.
Second, you might not have enough egg to bind everything together. The mixture should be wet enough to hold its shape when formed.
Finally, make sure you’re letting them cool before handling – they’re more fragile when hot.
