Now tell your wife to make one for you when you come home.
Russian Karavai – the traditional round bread loaf - has come down to us from ancient pagan times. Karavai was a must at the Russian wedding feast, with numerous ritual rules observed during its preparation. Wedding loaves are decorated with complicated pastry designs and branches of arrow-wood, which is believed to have mystical properties and is a symbol of love. Ingredients: 7.5~8.5 glasses of flour, 20g dry yeast, 100g oil or melted butter, 0.5 glass milk or water (or both together), 10 eggs, 6~7 tbsp sugar, 2 tsp salt, 1 lemon rind and cinnamon (optional). -
Bread and salt is a welcome greeting ceremony in many European cultures.
When important, respected, or admired guests arrive, they are presented with a loaf of bread placed on a rushnik (embroidered towel). A salt holder or a salt cellar is placed on top of the bread loaf or secured in a hole on the top of the loaf. In modern Russia, on official occasions, the "bread and salt" is presented by young women dressed in national costumes (e.g., sarafan and kokoshnik).
