Khrushchev dough

Type of bread dough


Khrushchev dough (Russian: хрущёвское тесто, romanized: khrushchevskoe testo) was a type of dough in the Soviet Union. It was the result of introducing flour rationing after a crop failure, which led to the food irregularities in 1963, under Nikita Khrushchev.[1][clarification needed] Products made from Khrushchev dough were called Khrushchev loaves[1] or Khrushchev pies. "Khrushchev pie" was made by extracting the pulp out of a loaf of wheat bread, injecting a filling, and baking it in an oven.[1] In 1963–1964, that pie became common on New Year tables.[1] The color of the Khrushchev loaves in Leningrad was nearly blue.[1] In some recipes from Runet, the dough was supposed to be long-lasting.
