french cooking words

Hang on a minute, doesn’t the word “biscuit” mean “twice cooked” in French?
And are they?
yup, biscuit means cooked twice, but i think (not completely sure) that it’s italian; biscuits were originally what we think of as crackers today. they baked them twice so that they were really hard and would last forever when sailors would take them to sea. now biscuits refer more to the soft flaky southern bread. i think i prefer the southern kind. : P
hope this helps!
