Rusk

Rusk is a hard, dry biscuit or twice-baked bread, often enjoyed as a crunchy snack with tea or coffee. It comes in different varieties across the world—some made from bread, others from cake (known as cake rusk). In India, rusks are a popular tea-time treat, available in flavors like suji (semolina), elaichi (cardamom), and jeera (cumin). 

Rusk can be a nutrient-dense snack when made with whole grains and healthy ingredients. Here are some of its benefits:

• High in Fiber: Whole wheat or oat-based rusks provide dietary fiber, aiding digestion and gut health.

• Rich in Protein: Some rusks contain nuts, seeds, or added protein, making them a good source of energy.

• Healthy Fats: Rusks made with nuts and seeds provide essential healthy fats that support heart health.

• Low Glycemic Index: Whole wheat and semolina rusks may have a lower glycemic index, making them a better option for diabetics.

• Crunchy & Satisfying: Their texture makes them a great tea-time snack, helping curb cravings
