Cut 1/2 cup of cold unsalted butter into the flour mixture using a pastry cutter until you can see pieces of butter.

Measure out 1 cup of very cold buttermilk and add it to the mixture, stirring gently to combine without overmixing.

Lightly flour the work surface and turn the dough out onto it.

Roll the dough out gently to about 1-inch thickness without overworking it.

Use a 2-inch biscuit cutter to cut out biscuits, placing them close together on a baking sheet.

Prepare an egg wash by mixing 1 egg yolk with 1 tablespoon of water, then brush it on top of the biscuits.

Bake the biscuits in a preheated oven at 425°F for 9 minutes until puffed and golden brown.

Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
