Frequently Asked Questions

What does buttermilk do in a rusk?

Buttermilk adds acidity, which tenderises the dough and gives the rusk a softer crumb and a slight tang against the sweetness.

How do you dunk a rusk properly?

Dip for a few seconds until the outside softens but the centre still holds, then eat it before it collapses into the mug.

How long do rusks keep once opened?

Weeks, kept in an airtight container in a dry cupboard. Humidity is what softens a rusk, not time.
