Sushki (Russian: сушки) is a traditional Russian tea bread. It is a small, crunchy, mildly sweet bread ring which can be eaten for dessert. Similar breads are: bagels, bubliks and barankis. Pre-packaged sushki can be found in markets that sell Russian foods. They are sometimes topped with poppy seeds.
Combine the flour, the egg, the water and the salt into a firm dough, and lay to rest under a napkin for about 30 minutes. Cut the dough into the small pieces, roll them out into strings of thickness of 0.5-0.7 cm. Then cut them into small rods, and make rings by putting the ends together. Cook the sushki in boiling sweetened water (1 l of water - 1.5-2 tbsp. of sugar) during 1-2 minutes. Remove the sushki from the water and bake them in a pre-heated oven until golden brown.[1]
