About Dry biscuit

Dry biscuit, a simple and versatile baked good, typically consists of flour, water, and a minimal amount of fat or leavening agents like baking powder. Originating from various cuisines worldwide, it is most commonly associated with British and American traditions, where it serves as a staple accompaniment to soups, stews, or tea. These biscuits are often crisp and unadorned, making them a suitable choice for individuals seeking a low-sugar snack option. While dry biscuits are low in calories and free from added sugars, their nutritional profile offers limited vitamins or minerals. Whole-grain varieties can provide an added fiber boost, promoting better digestion. However, traditional recipes may include refined flour, which lacks essential nutrients. Dry biscuits are prized for their long shelf life, portability, and ability to pair with a variety of spreads or toppings, making them both convenient and adaptable to different dietary needs.
