Petit beurre biscuits

Description

Petit beurre biscuits are classic, thin, rectangular cookies with a golden-brown color, a slightly crunchy texture, and a delicately buttery, moderately sweet flavor, often featuring characteristic indentations and small holes. They have a simple aroma and are pleasantly neutral, making them a versatile addition to beverages and desserts. In terms of nutritional value, they mainly provide carbohydrates (sugars and starch) and fat, with a small amount of protein and fiber; they are relatively high in calories, so it is best to consume them in moderation as a source of quick energy. They can support an energy diet for children or elderly people due to their ease of chewing. In the kitchen, petit beurre pairs well with tea and coffee, serves as a base for desserts like no-bake cheesecake, pie crusts, crumbles, or snacks with creams and fruits. They are also suitable for breading and as an ingredient in cookie doughs. They should be stored in a dry, cool place, in an airtight container or tin, to maintain their crunchiness; for longer storage, they can be frozen if packed hermetically.
