step-0
The required ingredients. I have a home fragrant rye bread on the malt.
step-1
Rye bread you need to make the breadcrumbs. According to an old recipe the crackers were dried and milled. I just cut the bread into pieces. From water and sugar, cook the syrup with spices. The cardamom pods have to open and take only the seeds, a star anise to put a whole cinnamon you can take and more. Some sources indicate that you can add cloves. Boil syrup a few minutes, then remove from it spices, put the breadcrumbs and cook, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes.

Here business was entered by modern technology. If the crushed crackers to take, then blender is not necessary to use, weight, and so you get smooth. Kaluga dough is ready, now it needs to stand in the cold for a few hours.
