Aromatic garlic flatbreads
Description
If you haven’t made flatbreads like these yet, be sure to give them a try. They’re a wonderful alternative to bread. They go well with soup or borscht, can be served for Sunday breakfast, and are easy to pack for the dacha or a barbecue. The dough is a pleasure to work with: it’s kneaded with boiling water and turns out strong and pliable. The recipe is very simple—worth saving. Serve cooled or slightly warm.
