About Rusk
Rusk is a dry, crisp bread or biscuit made by baking slices of bread twice. Originating from European cuisines, it has found global popularity as a light snack or accompaniment to tea and coffee. Traditionally, rusks are prepared using wheat flour, sugar, butter, milk, and yeast, which give them a crunchy texture and mildly sweet taste. While rusks are low in moisture, making them shelf-stable, they often contain refined flour and added sugar, which can contribute to higher calorie content. Some varieties, however, include whole grains or seeds, offering dietary fiber and minimal preservatives. Rusks are considered a quick, convenient food but may lack significant nutrients compared to whole grain or fresh baked alternatives. Moderation is key when consuming rusks, especially for those monitoring their sugar and carbohydrate intake.
