Lean rye flatbreads

Lean rye cakes are a cross between pastries for tea and ordinary bread. That is, they, of course, can be served with a bowl of soup, but at the same time they are good on their own, in their pure form. In Soviet times, buying rye cakes was not so easy: they were not sold everywhere and not always. Therefore, then this pastry was valued no less than good cakes. We offer to cook lean rye cakes on your own at home. It will not be difficult to do this, but pastries will appear on the table, which all your household members can eat with pleasure, regardless of the principles of nutrition.
