Festive occasions
Many of Poland’s religious holidays involve long observed fasts, including Easter and Christmas. Christmas Eve is a day of fasting, which is broken by a dinner called the Wigilia. Traditionally, this special meal is not eaten until a member of the family, usually a child, spots the first evening star in the winter sky.
Glossary
Clarified Butter
Butter cleared of its water content through heating and then straining. It can then be cooked to higher temperatures without fear of burning.
