Mix and sift flour, salt, baking powder, and sugar. Knife in shortening. Mix together buttermilk and baking soda and add slowly to the dry ingredients. When dough is soft, knead it on a floured board. Cut with a floured biscuit cutter (don’t twist the cutter). Place on a baking sheet and brush tops with melted butter. Bake at 450 degrees for about 15 minutes.
While still hot, split biscuits and butter both sides. Fill with strawberries. Top with more berries and whipped cream… and enjoy!!
