Sift together dry ingredients. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add milk; stir just until moistened. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; knead gently for about 30 seconds. Roll out to 1/2-inch thick; cut with a biscuit cutter. Arrange biscuits on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 425 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes, until golden.
