In the Russian language, it very often happens that under one word several concepts can be hidden. Here is a "biscuit", for example, both the designation of a person who is engaged in the manufacture of crackers, and a humorous designation of the one who loves to eat them. But at the same time, a rusk is a more magnificent dish made from eggs, milk and many other components.
The main components of the rusk
It is, of course, not easy to figure out the recipe for a biscuit, because everyone understands something of their own by this term. For example, as a child, you at least once tasted a dish that resembles croutons fried in an omelet. So, this dish can be safely called a cracker. For him, crackers are taken (preferably from white bread or loaf) and fried on both sides. Then they are poured with a mixture of 2-3 eggs and 250 g of milk (plus salt and sugar to taste). Let the mass boil and quench it a little under the lid.
The resulting dish is best eaten chilled and washed down with sweet tea. By the way, this dish can be baked in the oven, and for a change add raisins, nuts or any other delicious sweet ingredients to it.
Crackers are a cake and a sweet dessert
A rusk is also a pie, all also prepared on the basis of crushed rusks. For him you need to take:
- 1 glass of ground crackers;
- 1 glass of flour;
- 1 glass of fermented milk product (kefir, fermented baked milk or other - at will);
- 1 cup of sugar;
- 2-3 eggs;
- a bag of baking powder (can be replaced with slaked soda);
- vanilla or cinnamon (optional).
All ingredients must be mixed to make a dough that resembles thick sour cream. Add flour if necessary. Transfer the resulting mass into a mold on oiled parchment paper. Bake in a preheated oven for about 40 minutes at 180 ° C.
Some housewives recommend soaking bread crumbs in milk in advance (and even at night) for making this cake in order to soak the bread as best as possible. The milk remaining in the plate can be used further according to the recipe.
There is also a recipe for a biscuit, which in appearance rather resembles some kind of oriental sweetness in a "canned" form. For it, nuts, liver and chocolate should be mixed in absolutely free proportion. These three components are crushed and mixed, and then poured with honey or condensed milk.
The resulting mass must be boiled over low heat and allowed to cool. Maybe it looks like it turns out to be a somewhat unsightly treat, but on the other hand, it tastes like you will lick your fingers. Incredibly nutritious and surprisingly light, despite its composition, the biscuit does not leave much heaviness in the body, even if eaten in large quantities. In addition, due to the nuts and cocoa contained in chocolate, it has a huge energy reserve.
