Why the dipping ritual specifically matters to the experience
Rusk’s specific texture, dry and crisp, is genuinely designed for dipping into tea, softening slightly while retaining enough structure to be lifted and eaten, a specific tactile and taste experience central to how this snack is traditionally enjoyed. Riddhima Foods
