Dunking biscuits?

[lazybloke]

Some combinations work but chips with anything else but salt are an abomination.

Now you're going too far

Agreed.
But then...I don't mind if my cereal goes soggy!
There, pig/cat/eons!

Ginger Nuts in coffee.

The trick is to dunk fast enough to prevent sogginess and, even worse, disintegration!

I imagine those who look down on dunkers probably live at ‘the Bucket residence’…

Did it discuss the liquid as well as the biscuit? I think they need to be considered together as a combination.

Oh, there are some very common people here.

Doesn't anybody else drink Earl Grey or proper tea.

I know cycling is a socialist corner of society, but you could entertain some diversity.

Hobnobs, total marketing!

You have various puddings with pastry that's supposed to have a degree n of crispiness or flake such as apple pie, apple turnover, lemon merangue but often these are served with cream, custard or other liquid food/sauce. Salt and vinegar is a traditional accompaniment to chips and the very crispy beer battered fish.

Sogginess is very common in foods. I guess you just have preferences to your soggy foods.

Personally I don't think about dunking biscuits, it's rare that such an idea n comes to my mind when I've got access to biscuit and a hot drink. However when I see those chocolate oatcakes when my coffee is on the work surfa underneath the cupboard I occasionally link the two in a biscuit dunking. BTW oatcakes remain solid and taste or texture dry even after a long dunking. Never gone soggy yet.

BTW do you eat those little biscotti or lotus biscuits with the coffee they got served with? Aren't they meant for eating while drinking which is as good as dunking?

No idea, but you could have expanded that thread easily enough

If you object in principle to soggy food, how do you account for heavenly combos like crumble with custard, bread and butter pudding, etc.
Aarrgghhh, you're ruining my dessert choice!

PS can go savoury too. Chips and gravy/curry/ketchup/mayo. Etc.

Crumble with custard is the hiding place of too many food criminals.
They function on the premise that because it's traditional they produce their version and we have to eat it!
No sugar, acid laden, part cooked apple and the devil's vomit, custard. At school it was generally accepted that the cooks substituted turnip for apples.
Not since I left school and bought my own food.
You can gorge yourselves into oblivion at my funeral.

Earl Grey

Tea for people who don't like tea!
My one negative about Captain Jean-Luc Picard, but then he's supposed to be French, really...

That is so Crumblist and Custardist. Go and stand in the corner and reflect on your "ists".

Every time I dunk a biscuit I think of you
And hold it under until the bubbles stop
