Traditionally made from rye flour, this flatbread is known for its long shelf life and versatility, often served with butter, cheese, or spreads. It embodies the Swedish philosophy of using simple, wholesome ingredients, and has gained popularity worldwide as a healthy snack option, often enjoyed by those seeking a crunchy alternative to regular bread.
