We Indians, as faithful tea connoisseurs know one fact for sure -- tea is not a beverage to be dismissed or ignored. And it is definitely not to be meddled with. A complex amount of calculations and calibrations runs through the mind of the host before preparing that perfect cup to serve his/her visitors. As penned down by blogger Isha Jalan in Scoop Whoop, “Feeling bored? Have chai. Want to chat up about something important? Let's get chai! Bored at work? Chai will refresh things up for you. Want to fight the winter chill? You are one step away from feeling warm with chai. A friend, a healer and a companion - Chai is synonymous with so many emotions. People love drinking coffee, but for me, and a lot of Indians, nothing can replace a good-old cup of chai”.
If you are a true-blue Indian and take a look back down the memory lane, you shall agree to the fact that a plate of snacks and tea brings in a big whoosh of nostalgia. Indeed, what is the worth of tea without its faithful companions -- some moist, crumbly, or crunchy snacks? Be it spicy dhokla, deep-fried pakoda, sweet or savoury biscuits, delicious samosas, or crispy puffs -- chai is incomplete without its loyal partners.
A cherished memory from our childhood is dipping a piece of crispy rusk aka toast biscuit in a steaming cup of chai and savouring it till the end. Before our interests shifted to fancier versions such as cakes and pastries, these slightly sweet, crunch-filled treats used to deck our kitchen shelves. You might even recall your parents buying them in bulk -- owing to their long shelf lives and easy storage options. The nostalgia of these perforated, guilt-free rectangles -- dipped into a generous mug of elaichi chai is simply endearing. These titbits might have changed companies, forms, and ingredients -- but our trays can never be complete without them.
Rusk is a hard and dry type of biscuit that is made from twice-baked bread. This Indian version of the American biscotti, even today, graces almost every bakery in your vicinity. Toast has been a choice breakfast food all over the world since the 19th century. It is regularly used in most urban Indian homes till date. Known by many names -- khasta or russ in Hindi and katti toos in Bengali, it is very popular among Bakarwals aka Gujjars. These ideal tea dippers offer a harmonious and delicate balance between beverages and snacks -- a combination which has replicated itself over time -- to result in that perfect duo which we appreciate so much.
The common method of making toasts involves usage of few ordinary ingredients -- found in almost every household. Take some slices of bread and use a bread knife to cut them into equal parts of 1 in x 4 in each. In another bowl, put some melted butter. Coat each of the bread slices with butter using a pastry brush. Now, bake the pieces by keeping them on a wire rack -- placed over a baking sheet lined with foil or parchment paper. Remember that the oven is to be pre-heated to 350 degree Fahrenheit before baking the bread. After 15 minutes, remove the baking sheet and allow the rusk to cool completely. Fresh, homemade toasts are at your disposal -- ready to be dipped and relished on a rainy day!
