Koepito
Koepito is a traditional Russian pastry, typically made from a simple dough consisting of flour, water, and salt. The dough is rolled out thinly and cut into squares or rectangles, which are then baked until golden brown. Koepitos are often flavored with various ingredients such as poppy seeds, sesame seeds, or dried fruits, which are sprinkled on top before baking. The pastry is known for its crispy exterior and soft, slightly chewy interior. Koepitos are a popular breakfast item in Russia and are often served with tea or coffee. They can also be enjoyed as a snack or a dessert. The name "koepito" comes from the Russian word "koepka," which means "small bowl" or "cup," reflecting the shape of the pastry. Koepitos are a staple in Russian cuisine and are enjoyed throughout the country.
