HOW TO STORE ITALIAN COOKIES TO PRESERVE THEIR CRUNCH

Have you recently discovered the delicious Italian biscuits from EasyGusto.fr and would you like to keep them as long as possible to fully enjoy them? Follow our advice to keep them fresh and crunchy!

Why do Italian biscuits keep poorly?

Traditional Italian cookies are made with simple, natural ingredients, without preservatives. This is what gives them their authentic flavor and unique texture. However, this absence of additives makes them more fragile and sensitive to humidity and ambient air.

When the cookies are exposed to air, moisture gradually penetrates the dough, softening it and losing its characteristic crunch. Over time, cookies become soft or even moldy, losing all their appeal.

How to properly store Italian biscuits?

To preserve the freshness and texture of your Italian biscuits, follow these simple tips:

1. Store them in a dry, dark place

Ideally, store your biscuits in a cupboard or drawer, away from light and humidity. Avoid leaving them on the counter or near a window.

2. Use an airtight container

Place your cookies in an airtight metal, glass, or plastic container. This will prevent air and moisture from entering. You can also store them in a resealable plastic bag, pressing well to remove the air.

3. Add a Moisture Absorber

To absorb residual moisture, slip a desiccant packet into the container. You can also use dry rice or cotton wool. Renew the absorber regularly.

4. Avoid temperature variations

Store your cookies at room temperature, away from sources of heat or cold. Sudden temperature changes can cause them to soften.

5. Consume them quickly

Even with these tips, Italian cookies have a limited shelf life. Try to consume them within 2 to 3 weeks of opening them to fully benefit from their freshness.

Some additional tips

  • If your biscuits have already lost their crunch, you can reheat them for a few minutes in the oven at 150°C to brown them.
  • Avoid storing different types of cookies together, as this may cause them to lose their flavor.
  • Remember to close the container tightly after each use.

With these few simple steps, you will be able to enjoy the delicious Italian biscuits from EasyGusto.fr for longer! Please do not hesitate to contact us for any questions or orders.
