"Biscuits" were made by the Egyptians, Greeks and Romans until seasoning was added to the dough. During the middle ages, the etymology of the word "Biscuit" or "Besquis" was given by Jean de Joinville, a chronicler of the King in the 1300's, for being baked twice or more. The influence of Catherine de Medecis and her pastry masters from Italy, gave birth to a whole new approach to cooking and baking for centuries to come.
