      Blend dry ingredients in a large bowl. Cut in shortening with a pastry
   blender until mixture is the texture of coarse meal. Blend eggs, milk and
   water. Stir into dry ingredients and combine until moistened and a soft
   dough forms. Turn dough out on a heavily floured surface. Pat or roll to a
   1-inch thickness. Cut into 3 1/2 to 4-inch rounds. Transfer to lightly
   greased baking sheets and bake in a 375 oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until
   done. Makes 2 dozen biscuits. From: Pastry chef Ian Gallacher Oliver's
