Tuile is a delicate, thin, crispy cookie of French origin, traditionally made from simple ingredients such as flour, sugar, butter, and egg whites. Its name, meaning "tile" in French, reflects its curved shape, which resembles traditional roof tiles when molded while warm. Often flavored with almond, vanilla, or citrus, tuiles can be eaten plain or used as elegant garnishes for desserts like ice cream and mousse. While tuiles are light and airy, they are primarily composed of sugar and butter, making them a source of empty calories with minimal nutritional benefits. However, their crisp texture and small size often encourage mindful enjoyment as a light indulgence. Moderation is key when savoring this culinary treat, and versions incorporating whole grain or reduced sugar may offer a healthier twist on the classic recipe.
