As an Australian, I am used to having Christmas in the heat and because it is very multicultural, our Christmas table is likely different to our neighbors and the neighbor next to them, different again. The basic rule for Christmas food in Oz is, as long as it is good. I have had barbecues with pig on a spit, seafood with fresh prawns from down the docks, Indian curries and Sushi Christmas meals - I love the range.
Here in Finland, there is probably 5% variation in offerings across the entire population, with people having a far narrower concept of what Christmas food should be. The food is generally baked ham, fish dishes and casseroles, with all of the different casseroles (potato, sweet potato, carrot, beetroot, liver...) all tasting identical.
Wow, Dear @tarazkp, The cups and plates on the table are nice. Who else attends your Christmas party other than the three of your family?😄
By the way, In East Asian medicine, pork is said to be harmful to stroke patients.
Seafood, fruits, and vegetables are good for stroke patients, and meat should be avoided.
My wife's side of the family will be there - parents, sister's family extended family.
I think in East Asian medicine, everything is bad for something. :)
In East Asian medicine, it is said that eating a lot of pork is bad for blood circulation.
Is your Christmas party still going on? I wish you health, longevity and happiness.
Merry christmas!
East Asians say that the koala is the strongest animal ever.😄
They'd be wrong!
