Dryers are low-moisture bread products in the shape of small rings. They are a popular snack in Belarusian, Polish, Russian and Ukrainian cuisines.
The main ingredients for their preparation include wheat flour, eggs, salt and water, as well as various additives depending on the recipe. The dough is cut into strips, rolled into a ring and boiled in boiling water, after which it is baked in the oven.
The first mention of sushki dates back to 1616, when they were associated with the victory of the Polish people over the Turks. In Tsarist Russia, sushi, bagels and bagels were an important part of culinary culture, and their number in the house symbolized prosperity.
Drying products were originally created as products to be stored for the winter, which explains their long shelf life. To achieve crumbliness and flavor, the dough must be stiff and low in acidity. The classic recipe includes 20% sugar, which also helps to increase shelf life. Previously, dryers were sold strung on twine, but nowadays they are often packaged in bags
