As you know, there is a Catholic Christmas and an Orthodox Christmas, and at the same time it is difficult to find even two Catholic or Orthodox countries that would have absolutely identical Christmas dishes and Christmas menu. The Christmas table should not only saturate the family, but also symbolize abundance, the beginning of a new life. Traditional Christmas dishes in different countries are very diverse, in connection with the end of the fast, a variety of products are allowed. For example, from the end of November to January 7, the Orthodox Christmas fast lasts, the menu of the Christmas fast is a great way not only to be cleansed spiritually, but also physically. Eating during the Christmas fast excludes fatty animal food, fish can be eaten several times a week. But after the fast, the recipes for Christmas dishes are more diverse, there is meat, fish, and dairy products.

A cake from Chef Goland with mascarpone cream. Hello, dear friends! I have a real cookie lit up here (without baking powder and soda). Try to cook and enjoy this dessert.
A very delicate pie.. with a layer of canned pineapples, which makes it very fresh and fragrant.. And a layer of Mascarpone cream cheese, which makes it very tender))) how to cook mascarpone at home… I showed it.. that’s the whole power, and a lot of it won’t take long.. And you can buy a jar of pineapples in any store. So, don’t be afraid of the name… Try it yourself… and treat them to a delicious treat.. family and friends)
This cake came to me under the name “Tiramisu cake”. But, as it seemed to me, this name is not very correct, so I decided to rename it. Due to the similarity of the ingredients, the taste of the cake is really similar to the taste of tiramisu. The pastry has a very delicate, moist, soft texture. An amazing option. I am sure that many people will like this cake.
I love this souffle cake so much that, of course, it’s not a pity to spend money on cream cheese. Especially now is the season of “real” strawberries (although you can save money on this), and it is impossible not to cook this yummy. Even the biggest “monkeys” are delighted with this.
I think the first association when you talk about an Italian dessert is “Tiramisu”. Of course, it’s so delicious! But sometimes you can dream up and play with tastes. I offer you a roll with a delicate mascarpone cream and a coffee-chocolate flavor.
I took the basis of the recipe for this wonderful dessert at the next master class at the Culinary Academy of Hector Jimenez Bravo. I have not yet acquired a form for boucher, because I molded it in the form of a cake (bread), but it did not affect the taste in any way… And, of course, this dish is quite worthy of the royal table, believe me? Come and treat me!!!
All children love sweets, and these cookies can complement the festive table. This is also a good opportunity to make a handmade gift and give it for Christmas, tied with a ribbon. The idea was spied in oriental cuisine, in Indian.
