Christmas Menu.....

[birdlover17]

Christmas went good here.. Whats on your menu for the New Year's feast ?

hi cv,

Glad your christmas was good.  For the new years menu there are foods that are suppose to bring good luck or allow the new year to be prosper.  I'm thinking about doing roast pig (i wish i could get a whole pig but i have to work with pieces of pork like the thigh, leg, etc..)  also a dish with lentils, greens like collard greens or kale, cakes, maybe baked clams and fish, etcc    Also plenty of Champagne.

Since there are good luck foods, there are also bad luck foods that you shouldn't eat like dont make any poultry or lobster they dont represent anything good but bad for the new year.

Sounds Good !!

If you can, there are pig farmers that may sell a pig-let for a traditional feast. I'm not that superstitious but I can respect it.

Enjoy !

New years meals are usually pretty simple affairs in Scotland.  

On Hogmanay (New years Eve) our main meal will be Stovies a traditional Scottish dish made with left over roast beef & sliced tatties, served with oatcakes & baby beetroot and loads of booze, then we're off to a party for the bells.

On New Years Day I'll likely be feeling like death heated up so I'll be keeping the cooking really easy, we'll be having broth made the day before followed by Roast silverside, Yorkshire puddings & trimmings and probably strawberry & kiwi pavlova for dessert.

not much for beets but the  rest sounds great
