STRAWBERRY BISCUIT BUNS Advertisement Buongiorno amici: This round of Secret family recipe offers one from Kane in Pennsylvania. The author is Virginia Manno, and we are grateful for her submission. A little history on the subject is always appropriate, and here we are. The biscuit history follows that of sugar, and it seems that in Persia during the 7th Century BCE, people baked the first form of biscuits, resembling those of today. It wasn’t until the Moorish conquest of Spain and the crusades of the 12th and 13th centuries that Arabic cooking practices slowly entered Europe and eventually throughout the British Empire.
