Dill-Pepper Buttermilk Biscuits

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. In large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, pepper, and salt. With pastry blender or 2 knives used scissors-fashion, cut in vegetable shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In cup, combine buttermilk and dill; stir into flour mixture just until mixture forms soft dough that leaves side of bowl. Turn dough onto lightly floured surface; knead 6 to 8 times or just until smooth. With floured rolling pin, roll dough 1/4 inch thick. With floured 2-inch biscuit cutter, cut out rounds without twisting cutter. Arrange biscuits on ungreased cookie sheet, 1 inch apart. Press trimmings together; reroll and cut out additional biscuits. Bake 12 to 14 minutes or until golden. Serve warm.
