  • Ukrainian Christmas Eve Dinner

    The Ukrainians observe the Holy Supper, a a meatless 12-course meal to recognize the twelve disciples of Jesus Christ. Hay is present, usually under the table, as a reminder that Jesus was born in a manger. Three loaves of braided bread, Kolach, are placed in the center of the table to represent the Trinity (the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit). Portions of the meal are kutia (honey-sweetened boiled wheat), beet soup (borsch), fish, sauerkraut and varenyky (a potato and onion dumpling).Suite 101: Holy Supper
