ANZAC Biscuits - 1926 Recipe

-

 Anzac Day is a national day of remembrance in Australia, New Zealand and Tonga that broadly commemorates all Australians and New Zealanders "who served and died in all wars, conflicts, and peacekeeping operations" and "the contribution and suffering of all those who have served". Observed on 25 April each year, Anzac Day was originally devised to honour the members of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) who served in the Gallipoli campaign, their first engagement in the First World War (1914–1918).


The Anzac biscuit is a sweet biscuit, popular in Australia and New Zealand, made using rolled oats, flour, sugar, butter (or margarine), golden syrup, baking soda, boiling water and optionally desiccated coconut.  Anzac biscuits have long been associated with the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) established in World War I.

It is thought that these biscuits were sent by wives and women's groups to soldiers abroad because the ingredients do not spoil easily and the biscuits kept well during naval transportation.

Anzac biscuits should not be confused with hardtack, which was nicknamed "ANZAC wafers" in Australia and New Zealand.

Anzac biscuits are an explicit exemption to an Australian ban on commercial goods that use the term "Anzac", so long as they are sold as "biscuits" and not "cookies".

How to Build tuned Profiles for Dynamic Linux Kernel Mitigations dynamic mitigation functionality was created by AMD engineer David Kaplan, linked here is an article discussing it The recent introduction of "Dynamic Mitigations" for the Linux kernel provides a powerful new capability: the ability to enable or disable CPU security mitigations at runtime without a reboot. This is managed by writing to a special file at /sys/devices/system/cpu/mitigations . While you can do this manually with a simple echo command, a more robust and manageable approach is to use the tuned daemon. tuned is a system service designed to switch between performance profiles, making it the perfect tool for this job. This guide will show you how to create custom tuned profiles to easily manage your system's security and performance posture. ​ Start Somewhere : Create a Custom tuned Profile Creating a custom profile is straightforward. First, you need to create a new directory for...
