An event many look forward to at the end of the year. It is a time of joy and charity, a time where people come together to celebrate a tradition which has been in our culture for centuries. But of course people of different backgrounds celebrate Christmas differently, some celebrate it in a way which looks very odd and some celebrate Christmas with a tradition that some of us find very amusing. Luckily you won’t have to scour the web to find these hilarious Christmas traditions for I have compiled, for YOU, 3 Unusual Christmas Traditions for your recreational pleasure Catalonia has a couple of weird traditions. One of them being the addition of adding a defecating man into their nativity scene. The figure is called the Caganer. The other one is Tió de Nadal, meaning “The Christmas Log.” This Christmas tradition involves families to bring out the “Christmas” log on the 8th of December and “feed” the log with nuts, dried fruits and water every night until the 24th. They then beat the log on Christmas Eve with a stick to make it poop out candies and presents! n a small town called Gävle located in Sweden, a Christmas TraditionI that started in 1966 has become a big event for the towns- people. On the first day of Advent every year, authorities in the town have erected a straw Swedish yule goat, and every year vandals in that town has successfully burned it down. This ordeal has been go- ing since 1966 and has become like a little game for the townspeople. The Yule Goat has only survived the year once or twice since 1966 and people are excited to find out what will happen in 2016. “On a beautiful Christmas evening Japanese families would gather around their dining table talking amongst themselves while chowing down on some deliciously greasy KFC?” Christmas feasts usually include turkey, pudding and maybe some seafood. But in Japan things are a little different… as always. On a beautiful Christmas evening Japanese families would gather around their dining table talking amongst themselves while chowing down on some deliciously greasy KFC? Well it all started in 1974 when a group of foreigners in Japan could not find any turkey for their Christmas meal, so they bought KFC as a substitute. The company saw this as a great marketing opportunity and started advertising their KFC chicken as a key part of any Christmas meal. It began as a simple chicken and wine meal but grew overtime and now includes cake and champagne. The trend is now so popular that KFC insists that people order their KFC months beforehand to avoid the long queues which can be as long as 2 hours on some stores. You can now even enjoy some in-flight KFC, from December 1 through February 28 passengers on select trips between Tokyo and eight U.S. and European destinations can enjoy KFC in-flight.

However, if you can’t kill the hen, ask your master; take both of its wings in your left hand, take its neck with your two fingers and cut it under its wattle, be cautious not to cut its neck. Do the same with the goose and chicken. If you use vinegar, be sure to wash your hands before, lest your hands would taint it. If you want to pluck the feathers, don’t use boiling water. The water for the goose and chicken should be colder than the sterlet’s water. After you’re done with plucking the feathers, singe it, put it into clean water, wash it, cut its nails, disembowel it, but put its stomach and liver into a different pot of water to clean it. When slaughtering a pig, take its nose with one of your hand and put a knife into its brisket. Water temperature should be similar to a chicken’s, because you don’t want to burn it.

    Christmas Past Recipes Roasting the Christmas baron of beef at Windsor Castle in 1856. HISTORIC FOOD COOKERY COURSES Recipes of dishes made or sampled on The Taste of Christmas Cookery Courses 2009. TO MAKE A HACKIN. From a Gentleman in Cumberland. SIR, THERE are some Counties in England, whose Customs are never to be set aside and our Friends in Cumberland, as well as some of our Neighbours in Lancashire, and else-where, keep them up. It is a Custom with us every Christmas-Day in the Morning, to have, what we call an Hackin, for the Breakfast of the young Men who work about our House; and if this Dish is not dressed by that time it is Day-light, the Maid is led through the Town, between two Men, as fast as they can run with her, up Hill and down Hill, which she accounts a great shame. But as for the Receipt to make this Hackin, which is admired so much by us, it is as follows. Take the Bag or Paunch of a Calf, and wash it, and clean it well with Water and Salt ; then take some Beef-Suet, and shred it small, and shred some Apples, after they are pared and cored, very small. Then put in some Sugar, and some Spice beaten small, a little Lemon-Peel cut very fine, and a little Salt, and a good quantity of Grots, or whole Oat-meal, steep'd a Night in Milk; then mix thefe all together, and add as many Currans pick'd clean from the Stalks, and rubb'd in a coarfe Cloth ; but let them not be wash'd.

    Roast Goose with Fruit-Nut Stuffing December 2010 - Every Day with Rachel Ray - Recipe by Mark Bittman 8 servings Prep: 25 mins(plus cooling) Roast: 2 hrs 40 mins Ingredients Tip: Save the rich and luxurious rendered goose fat for frying. Try it when cooking potatoes--its incredible. 1/2 pound (2 sticks) butter 1 onion, chopped 1/2 cup pine nuts 8 cups fresh breadcrumbs 2 cups peeled and diced tart apples 1 1/2 cups coarsely chopped pitted prunes 2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves 1 bay leaf, finely crumbled Salt and pepper 1/2 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley 1 10 - 12 pound goose, excess fat trimmed Directions 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees . In a large Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the pine nuts and cook until browned, about 3 minutes. Stir in the breadcrumbs, then lower the heat to low and stir in the apples, prunes, thyme and bay leaf; season with salt and pepper. Turn off the heat, then stir in the parsley. Let cool. (Refrigerate the stuffing for up to 1 day.) 2. Prick the goose skin all over with a sharp fork, trying not to hit the meat (the fat layer is about 1/4 inch thick). Lightly pack the stuffing into the goose (alternatively, transfer the stuffing to a 9-inch square baking dish and bake at 400 degrees until browned, 15 to 20 minutes). Arrange the goose, breast side down, on a rack in a roasting pan and season with salt and pepper.
