Twelfth Dishes on the Christmas Table
Every family has its own traditions for celebrating Christmas Eve and its recipes for festive dishes passed down through generations. However, we have decided to remind you of twelve traditional dishes.
1
Wheat Kutia. On the Stove and in a Slow Cooker
Kutia is the main dish that is essential for Christmas Eve. Every family has its own traditional recipe. You can add raisins or chopped apricots or prunes to the kutia. Walnuts can be replaced with hazelnuts. Alternatively, you can dilute it with compote. In some regions, kutia is made with barley or rice. In short, find your own recipe. We offer a classic, basic version. However, since progress doesn't stand still, we also included a recipe for a slow cooker.
