Rich Tea is a type of sweet biscuit whose origins are from the United Kingdom. The biscuits are round and thin, usually with a diameter of about 5 cm. They are made from wheat flour, sugar, vegetable oil and malt extract.

History

Rich Tea biscuits were first developed in the 17th century as a light snack between full-course meals. They were initially known as Tea Biscuits, and were often served with a cup of tea.

Characteristics

Rich Tea biscuits are known for their simple, yet satisfying flavor. They are not overly sweet, and have a slightly malty taste. The texture is firm and they are designed to be strong enough to support the dunking into a hot beverage, traditionally tea.

Popularity

Rich Tea biscuits are extremely popular in the United Kingdom, and are also consumed in other parts of the world. They are often served with afternoon tea, and are also used as an ingredient in some types of cakes and desserts.

Variations

There are several variations of the Rich Tea biscuit. Some manufacturers add a small amount of salt to enhance the flavor, while others add vanilla or lemon zest. There are also chocolate-covered versions of the biscuit.
