Do you dunk your biscuits in your tea / coffee ?!
Do you dunk your biscuits in your tea / coffee ?
If you do how do you stop getting bits in the bottom of your drink ?
Answers:
Judging the consistency of a biscuit prior to dunking is a fine art and determines the amount of time a biscuit may be submerged for before it loses its natural shape.
here is a quick dunking table to help you
rich tea 3s
chocolate digestive 5s
hobnob 7-10s
ginger nut 10+

I am sad enough to make a separate cup of tea specifically for dunking!
I do, don`t mind the bits
a quick and efficient dip, with a good biscuit like a digestive!
i'd still drink the same tea but i'll throw the last 1/5 of the tea in the cup so that i dn have to choke on the bits :)
Try and use harder biccies.I don't do it but my kids do and it drives me mad with all the bits in the bottom of the cup.
You need to analyse the type of biscuit you are dunking and dip accordingly, something like a choc chip cookie requires a short quick dunk, just enough to melt the choc and make the bic go a little soggy, a ginger biscuit should have a longer dunk. If you are a good dunker like me you shouldn't really get bits in the bottom.
i hate the bits at the bottom
if i have rich tea or digestive biscuts then i dunk them in my tea but there is always biscut left in the bottom of the cup
Yes i always dunk....and no, just dont drink the last bit!
I only do it if the biscuits are hard enough. Like ginger snaps or digestive. If you do it quickly and are not talking while you do it you should not get the bits on the bottom
i do, but only the one that they have at the cafe. It's a long, hard lol buiscit that they make just for dunking soo your drink won't get crumby
nope because
they disintigrate n fall in my cup
& stay at the bottom
=[
damn lol

You have to dunk it quite quick, but will always get a few bits in the buttom, especially a hob nob type. The morning coffee ones are probally the best, but are a bit boring.
Ohhh i love doing that!!! It makes the cookie or biscuit a million times more tastier. I usually have a spoon handy in case they get too soggy which i loveeeeeee..so i can scoop them up..AND because when they get stuck on the bottom which is the best part i can eat those too!! yummy..now that you said it i'm going to have myself some coffee and cookies..Cheers
Bit's at the bottom of the cup are a small price to pay
I do and i love it
get thickre buicuits lik choc chip cookies rather than rich tea n stuff i learnt it form peter kay lol
yes, but the worse thing is when you lose the biscuit in your brew and then you need to get a tea spoon to get it out again.
umm... try not to hold it in for long... if u get really big bits tho... u can get them out with a little spoon sometimes...!
only dunk 4 a few seconds then they don't fall in
If they do you hav yo get a spoon an carefully try a get them out wth out breaking it up.
god im sad!!
Why worry about the bits, just enjoy.
My personal fave bicky for dunking has got to be the chocolate hob nob. These little beauties can really handle a dunking and only melt in your mouth, so don't worry your self with sinking breakoffs. An excellent alternative is a penguins melt, this is achieved by biting two small diagonal corners off, then use the biscuit as a straw, the moment you taste the tea/coffee come through the biscuit place biscuit in mouth relax and journey to heaven.
Sorry about punctuation my game's biscuits not typing.
quick dunk, don't let it get too soggy and fall apart!
yes thats the only way to eat a biscuit. make it a quick dunk then you don`t get so many bits at the bottom.
Sometimes but not all the time. The bits just stay at the bottom of the cup and I just remember to make sure that I always leave some tea in the cup, so I don't see the bits at the bottom
Milk chocolate homewheats are my flavour of the month right now. It sounds weird but I just run my tongue over the biscuit and lick off any loose crumbs before I dunk it and I never hold it in the tea for more than a couple of seconds so it is nice and soggy but not at the point where it is going to drop off. Sometimes I just bite off some dry biscuit and then take a swig of tea so it melts in my mouth - yum. This is an art you know!
