Aim- How to prepare Rusk

A rusk is a hard, dry biscuit or twice-baked bread. It is sometimes used as a baby teething food. In the United Kingdom, the name also refers to a wheat-based food additive. India rusk (or toast biscuit) is a traditional dried bread. It is also known askhasta(Hindi)russ or cake rusk in Hindi/Urdu or katti toos in Bengali. It is commonly eaten after having been dipped in coffee or tea.

Rusks are not just a Greek specialty—they are popular in many different countries across the globe. In France, they are called biscotte and sold in packages in markets; Germany's version is referred to as zweiback, which when translated means baked twice (the name may sound familiar as it is used to label teething biscuits).

In Russia, rusks are called sookhar' and can either be made from leftover stale bread or a bread similar to challah—this version is more like a cookie and served with milk or coffee, while the plainer rusk is added to soups in place of serving bread on the side.
