Tea-time snacks range from namak pare to crunchy pakodas. But a packet of biscuits is on everyone's list. Depending on our preferences, we all prefer to stock a variety of biscuits. However, after some time of opening the pack, these biscuits turn out to be stale and tasteless. Ever wondered how to use them? Well, if not, we are here to help.
