Margherita Cookies
Overview
When hearing Margaret for the first time, many people will be surprised why a small piece of cake has such a cute name. The full name of Margaret Cookies is Miss Margaret who lives in Stresa, Italy, and its English name is Italian Hard-boiled Egg Yolk Cookies. A long time ago, when a pastry chef was making cookies, he silently recited the name of his lover and pressed his fingerprints on the cookies. This is the origin of Miss Margherita’s cookies who live in Stresa, Italy. The recipe of margarita biscuits is different from that of other biscuits. Half of the cornstarch is added to it, so beautiful cracks will appear. Only with such beautiful cracks can it be considered a real margarita biscuit. It is precisely because of the addition of starch that it has a crispier texture and melts in your mouth. Margaret is an absolute novice-level biscuit. It does not require many tools or special materials. It has a simple and plain appearance, but the taste is crispy and delicious, somewhat similar to the texture of Wangzi steamed buns. This crispy, melt-in-the-mouth texture is due to the cornstarch added to the biscuit recipe. It is precisely because of the addition of cornstarch that when you press the dough with your thumb, beautiful cracks will bloom. Such beautiful cracks are considered real margarita cookies. It’s so wonderful to do it for him or her, it’s full of love! This one should be said to smell of love. O(∩_∩)O
