I love rusks. LOVE them. The original ones are best – can’t really be doing with all this new low-sugar and fruit flavoured stuff – so it was with no small amount of joy that today I discovered you can get MINI RUSKS ! How cool is that ? Needless to say, our regular shopping list of items has grown by one.
I know that we all have a comfort food of choice (mine ranging from cheesecake through to choccie biccies) but I don’t count rusks as a comfort food – it seems to have a category all of it’s own – along with one of the puddings in jars for people of about the same age – I think it’s the Apricot and Peach (not the custard one, the puree looking creation). It probably isn’t that odd that I (we ?) have these particular tastes …. do you think that someone somewhere goes all tingly at the thought of some smooth cauliflower cheese ? (No, me neither).
Procedure for the consumption of a (full size) Rusk
- Float a rusk in a bowl of COLD milk
- Allow rusk to float for a minimum of 2 minutes
- Flip rusk with a small spoon
- Scrape away now soggy base. Remember, using a small spoon = more mouthfuls = more enjoyment
- The top should now be softened, but not soggy. Gently break and eat
- Repeat as needed
Rusks. Too good for kids 🙂
I prefer to eat rusks dry, straight out the packet.
There’s less than two weeks til our new addition to the family and I can’t wait to get the rusks again 🙂
News of mini rusks is even better 😀
Rusks were okay and I agree with Steve on this one but there was another much better biscuit that I can’t remember the name of now. I used to take these to secondary school with me as part of my lunch :secret: I think they begin with a T but can’t be sure
