Celtnet Biscuit/Cookie Recipes and Baking, Home Page





Welcome to Celtnet's Biscuit / Cookie Recipes Page — This is a continuation of an entire series of pages that will, I hope, allow my visitors to better navigate this site. As well as displaying recipes by name, country and region of origin I am now planning a whole series of pages where recipes can be located by meal type and main ingredient. This page gives a listing of all the biscuit / cookie recipes added to this site. In British English they are called 'biscuits' a name derived from the French for 'baked twice' and recipes for them go back at least to Elizabethan times, if not earlier. Originally they were a way for bakers to use-up spare flour and dough and invariably they included yeast. But later they became little round hard mixtures of flour, water and flavourings. They became essential ships' rations and were exported around the world. British biscuits tend to be hard and dry or crumbly. Americans call them 'cookies', a word derived from the Dutch for 'cake' and American cookies tend to be soft on the outside and slightly chewy in the middle though there is considerable overlap. On this site I have collected cookie and biscuit recipes from all over the world and thourhgout many periods of history. Enjoy...

It should be noted that biscuits differ from cakes in that biscuits go soft when they become stale, whereas cakes harden.

You can also browse the following types of baking recipes:

Classic Recipes from Scotland

Recipe Information: 35

Scottish cookery swings from the essential spartan nature of Highland Cookery, where the most is made of scant ingredients, to the richness of the recipes of the East Coast ports and border towns. Despite its reputation as something of a joke (which is, at least partially, deserved) Scottish cookery is alive and vibrant and represents a fusion of good ingredients, old recipes and modern techniques. Here, recipes are provided for a traditional highland meal and this is contrasted with a traditional rich cake.
