Learn how to cook "A guide to the perfect table for Christmas Eve and Christmas". Delicious recipe.
The Christmas holidays are very special for everyone, they bring a feeling of purification, light and goodness. They make us feel happy, and the family takes on an even more special meaning. Of course, as with any Bulgarian holiday, this one often revolves around the table. Following the folk traditions, there should be 7, 9 or 12 dishes on the table for Christmas Eve, and the offers for Christmas are countless.
We decided to make it easier for you and help you choose, so that you do not fuss for a long time in choosing delicious dishes for your holiday table.
Traditionally, pumpkin and lean sarma are present on the table on Christmas Eve.
Christmas Eve is burning in the fireplace, and the oldest in the home breaks a soda cake, which he distributes to all members of the family.
Nuts and oshav, onions and garlic (which are believed to ward off evil spirits) must be placed on the table.
Other dishes that occupy an important place on the table are stuffed dried peppers, sauerkraut beans and pickles.
For Christmas we can not do without different and varied Christmas sweets and cookies.
Of course, this is also the day when we bet on a more stable meal with more meat, so we suggest you prepare pork fillet with rosemary or fillet wrapped in bacon.
Salad also occupies an important place. And with the Christmas cake for dessert you will impress all guests, even the most demanding of them.
