Zwieback is a form of rusk eaten in Scandinavia, Germany, Austria, Italy and Greece. It is a type of crisp, sweetened bread, made with eggs and baked twice. It originated in East Prussia. The Mennonites brought ''Zwieback'' to the Russian Empire; during and after the Russian Revolution, when many fled, they brought ''Zwieback'' to Canada, the United States and other parts of the world. It is sliced before it is baked a second time, which produces crisp, brittle slices that closely resemble melba toast.〔(Zweiback - Medical Dictionary Definition )〕 ''Zwieback'' is commonly used to feed teething children〔 and as the first solid food for patients with an upset stomach. The name comes from German ''zwei'' ("two") or ''zwie'' ("twi-"), and ''backen'', meaning "to bake".〔(zwieback - Health Information About zwieback | Encyclopedia.com: Dictionary Of Food and Nutrition )〕 ''Zwieback'' hence literally translates to "twice-baked". ==See also== *Biscotti *Brandt (company) *Rusk *Russian Mennonite zwieback (Tweebak) *Toast 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Zwieback」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
