About Salty biscuit

Salty Biscuit is a savory baked treat commonly enjoyed as a snack or accompaniment to meals. These biscuits are typically made from a mixture of flour, butter, salt, and baking powder, with variations including milk or buttermilk for added richness. Originating from European cuisines, salty biscuits have become popular worldwide, appreciated for their crispy texture and satisfying flavor. While they provide quick energy due to their carbohydrate content, their high sodium levels can be a concern for individuals monitoring their salt intake. Additionally, depending on the recipe, they may contain significant amounts of fat from butter or other shortening agents. While homemade versions allow control over ingredients for a healthier alternative, store-bought salty biscuits can sometimes contain preservatives or trans fats. Perfect for pairing with soups or cheeses, they are best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
