culture, lifestyle and customs. Well-known for its great diversity and
amazing flavors. Popular ingredients in
the cuisine of Ukraine are meat, mushrooms, vegetables, berries, fruit

in very generous quantities. |
 In Ukraine, the Christmas holidays begin since 2nd of
January. Prior to Christmas in the Ukraine, people try to complete
almost all important work. As usual, the hostess thoroughly cleans the
house, covers the new tablecloth, tries to make new clothes before
holiday. On January 4th Ukrainians prepare everything for the future
festive Christmas dinner. According to tradition, there should be 12
courses for Svyatvecher (Christmas). All they have to be lean.
