New Year's table 2024: what to cook

The tradition of honoring the symbol of the year came to us from Chinese culture, and the Green Wooden Dragon, which will be full of 2024, is a special and mythical creature. This animal is associated with the aristocracy and is considered the patron saint of emperors. Therefore, you should follow certain rules when creating a New Year's menu.

The following dishes must be present on the festive menu for the New Year 2024:

• Fish and seafood: favorite treats for the fire-breathing Dragon.

• Red meat (pork, beef): delicious options for a rich New Year's table.

• Poultry (turkey, duck, goose): a choice for wealth and luxury.

• Dishes with spicy spices: add garlic, hot red pepper, ginger, cloves, and anise to spice up your dishes.

The list also includes hard cheese, fresh herbs, and unusual dishes such as the Dragon New Year's salad, which will definitely emphasize the gastronomic preferences of the fire-breathing symbol of the year. 

You should also include fresh fruits, especially oranges and tangerines, which represent abundance.

What dishes should be avoided?

When preparing a table, you should avoid hare or rabbit dishes, because according to legend, the Dragon saved these animals from trouble. 

In addition, it is not recommended to serve chicken, semi-finished products, or canned food, as the Green Dragon prefers natural food.

The main rule of the New Year's table: do your best to make the table rich, varied and beautiful, as the Dragon is associated with generosity. 

Use candles in the setting, as well as the colors green, red, and gold to make the symbol of the year feel like a grateful guest.

We wish you a pleasant celebration and a Happy New Year!
