How beautiful are these pictures? May your family continue to be blessed and celebrate St George- Djurdjevdan! I want the person that made the slavski kolac to share with me their secrets on decorating it so beautifully! It looks absolutely amazing. Father Miodrag and Father Radan brought a smile to my face. Two very special people!

Such a rich, unexplored and often misrepresented culture. Where did the icon in the background of the dining room sequences come from? Who is the saint? Where can I purchase one similar to this? Hvala

Keep the traditions going
St George's slava celebrated in Serbia in my Great Grandfathers house was particularly meaningful for me. It is the same everywhere as it is above (video). Keep the candle burning as it also represented our freedom of religon during the dark 500 years of our history

Very nice !
It is really nice to see revealing some secrets of traditional Serbian customs in such a nice way. Well done for SBS ! Good job. Though, this year 2011. Slava of Saint George fallen on Friday which is a regular fasting day among Serbian Orthodox , meaning when Slava happens on Wednesday or Friday all dishes are made without milk (or milk products), without meat (fish excepted) . Generally non dairy and meat free (only fish or seafood allowed). And music in clip is gypsy not Serbian traditional.

Hot Tips

In a pickle

If you want to pickle your own fish or cucumbers, it’s essential your jars and lids are properly sterilised before sealing to avoid spoilage. Preheat the oven to 120°C and line a baking tray with a clean tea towel. Wash the jars and lids in hot soapy water, then place in a large saucepan of cold water and bring to the boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer gently for 10 minutes. Using metal tongs, carefully remove the jars and lids from the water and place upside down on the lined tray. Place in the oven for 15–20 minutes or until dry. Alternatively, place the jars and lids in the dishwasher and run on the hottest cycle. This is a good option if you’re using rubber seals or plastic lids. As a rule, hot preserves should go into hot jars and cold preserves into cold jars.
