Comment: "I actually used "Marie" with "milk biscuits" in parentheses so there would be no doubt."

crushed milk biscuits
Receitas com bolacha Maria podem ser feitas com biscoito de leite ou de maizena, pois são todos muito parecidos.

Bolacha Maria
Não existe bolacha Maria na culinária americana.Entretanto esse produto é encontrado em todos os supermercados que vedem produtos latinos.Assim, poderia ser usado o termo "Bolacha Maria"com nota de roda pé.O mais próximo da Bolacha Maria é a "Graham Cracker", que é leve e com pouco açucar como a "B. Maria".Uma substituição boa é a bolacha ou biscoito "Champanha" que se chama "lady fingers".Entretanto muitos ingredientes de receitas de outros paises, não são traduzizdos e procuramos comprá-los nos locais apropriados. Ex.Curry. Assim, prefiro usar o termo original"Bolacha Maria" ou oferecer uma substituição.

: Tea biscuits é o que eu uso pra substituir. Graham crackers tem muitos tipos o que pode fazer a receita desandar por causa da escolha de um tipo errado. Tá aqui a "cara do sujeito" que eu uso: http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.trialiafoo...

ground rich tea biscuits
I don't know what market you are working for obviously but in the UK these biscuits are known as "rich tea". Maria is a Portuguese term that people, at least in the UK would not uinderstand

Amy,
I lived in the Uk until I was 24 and have lived in Portugal since. What is most important in the recipe is the texture and absorvancy of the biscuits and so for that reason I would personally opt for Rich Tea. I also work here in Porrtugal as a food writer and often have problems with food items that do not exist in different markets. I do not remember ever seeing Marie biscuits in the UK but that may just be my fading memory :-) Also you may want to add a note about a few drops of vanilla essence for the true Portuguese flavour...

Note from asker:
| Hi Douglas...this is for the UK market. I've found a number of UK sites referring to "Marie biscuits" - do you think people in the UK would generally be familiar with that name? I know they're different from rich tea biscuits because they have vanilla in them. |
