Rasstegai
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The dish was very popular in Tsarist Russia. In rasstegai the filling is not hidden in the dough, and rasstegai in Russian means "unfastened" pies.[1]
Another version: in Moscow, in the gypsy choir, the beautiful Katya sang very well the Russian song "Sarafanchik-rasstegaychik"; in honor of Katya, rasstegai became a very popular meal in taverns in Moscow.[2]
