Snack time!

What come up to your mind when the word ‘snack’ is mentioned? I believe that some of you will had a thought of “Biscuit”. Well, what is biscuit? Biscuit is a delicious crispy snack that is made by baking the dough. In several countries, biscuit has different names. The word “biscuit” originally comes from Latin, “Bis coctus” which means “The thing that was burnt twice” because of the process of making it that should be burnt twice to make the texture drier so the result is more durable and easily distributed.

The next famous biscuit is “Paprenjak” in Croatia. It is crispy with honey and black pepper inside the dough. This combination creates a unique taste that almost similar with ginger cookies. Let’s move to Austria, in this country, Vanillekipferl is the famous biscuit that is usually enjoyed as a late Christmas snack in Austria.

Other than biscuit, there is also a very popular snack that everyone loved: Cookies! Lots of people cannot differ cookies with biscuit because both of them categorized as pastry. But, in fact, it is different. The name “Cookies” is from Dutch "Koekjes". The texture of the cookies is softer and crunchy than the biscuits. Cookies have a form that is more attractive than biscuits.

Moreover, cookies are not baked twice, so cookies are softer than biscuits. Supplementary ingredients of cookie bakers are also more diverse when compared to biscuits. So no wonder if the taste of cookies was more varied than biscuits. The low water content of the biscuits makes it easier for these foods to "absorb" water from the humid air, so that if left in an open package, the biscuits can get sluggish. While cookies, which are softer tend not to change texture when exposed to air. But the water content can cause cookies easily fungus or oxidized and rancid.
