Where to go on vacation during the New Year holidays

Setting the festive New Year's table, of course, begins with choosing the color scheme in which the table will be decorated. Multicolor is not welcome in this matter; two, or maximum three colors, more is already a sign of unrefined taste.

The mistress of the coming year is Pig. The colors she loves are yellow, red and light green.

If you plan to set the table in red, then you need to remember that this color generally prefers the proximity of only one color, and preferably it should be white; the combination of white and red gives rise to strict harmony and solemnity.

Let's say the tablecloth is red, and the napkins, dishes and candles on the table are white. You can add a gold figurine of the hostess and yellow cutlery.

Or you can set the table in yellow-brown-gold tones, but you need to be very careful with gold so that the table does not look too pretentious and pompous. Rustic-style earthenware and ceramic serving utensils would be very appropriate on such textiles.

On a white tablecloth, green decorations will look very appropriate - napkins, a decorative Christmas tree or a spruce bouquet, green glasses, gold and silver dishes.

Well, now a few secrets:

  • The textiles on the festive table should look perfect - carefully ironed, the tablecloth should hang over the edges of the table by at least a quarter of a meter.
  • Napkins are always chosen either in a contrasting color or the same color, but a couple of shades darker.
  • Covers on the backs of chairs to match the tablecloth will greatly decorate and add festiveness, sophistication and chic to the setting.
  • A wide runner that matches the rest of the decor looks very nice on the tablecloth.
  • Since the hostess of the coming year loves to eat, there should be a real abundance on the table; to save space, you can use large dishes on which several different types of cuts or snacks should be placed.
  • Cutlery can be packed in openwork rustic napkins, tied with ordinary shaggy packing cord; of course, this is only possible when decorating the table in a rustic style.
  • Decorate the stems of the wine glasses with rain, satin ribbons or glitter.
  • When setting the New Year's table, small details that support the holiday atmosphere are of particular importance - beads and paper napkins with New Year's decor, Christmas tree decorations and even small pots with fresh flowers.
  • A special place on the festive table should be occupied by the symbol of the coming year - a cute pig, and pair it with a dog - a symbol of the outgoing year.
  • The surface of the salads can be decorated in the form of convex Christmas balls, using finely grated cheese for sprinkling, egg white or yolk and drawing patterns with mayonnaise.

The New Year holiday should be celebrated and celebrated brightly, in a circle of pleasant people and in a friendly atmosphere, then the year will be successful!

In the meantime, take my interesting and new menu for the New Year 2019 of the Pig!

Preparing for New Year's holiday no easy task. The difficulty lies in the fact that it is necessary to prepare dishes that will appeal not only to guests, family and friends, but also to the symbol of the next year. Many housewives have no idea what the menu for the New Year 2019 should be. What to prepare something new and interesting for the upcoming holiday.

General requirements

According to Chinese mythology, in 2019 the Dog cedes power to the Yellow Pig. This means that housewives can breathe a sigh of relief. This animal is not so demanding when it comes to food and therefore it will not be difficult to please it.

There is an opinion that it is omnivorous. However, do not forget that he is quite picky, so you should not cook everything. In addition, this animal is not devoid of a sense of beauty. Based on this, dishes should be varied and beautifully presented.

  • any fish;
  • all types of poultry;
  • game, with the exception of wild boar;
  • a wide variety of vegetables and fruit dishes;
  • any grains (porridge);
  • bakery products and dessert.

The Pig's love for beauty has already been mentioned. It would be nice if all dishes had fresh herbs; dill, parsley, cilantro, green onions etc. Also, do not forget that the Pig will be yellow. In this regard, yellow ingredients are suitable for decoration:

And, another important detail - all dishes should be as natural as possible. The use of fast foods and semi-finished products is not allowed. It will be very good if all the treats are prepared with your own hands, starting from a simple salad and ending with a cake.

It is worth noting that the hostess of the year also has her favorite dishes. We are talking about cereals. They should also be present at the holiday table. For example, rice or millet can be used to prepare various salads. You can stuff a duck with buckwheat porridge.

Are you planning to cook pork dishes for the New Year 2019?

YesNo

The New Year holiday always causes some headaches for many housewives. And, not because you have to cook a lot, but because first you need to decide what to cook. In fact, when drawing up a New Year's menu, it is necessary to take into account not only the preferences and wishes of family and friends, but also to please the symbol of the coming year.

Fortunately, in 2031, according to the eastern calendar, “power” passes from the white dog to the white pig. This means that housewives will have one less problem. Why? Yes, because the pig is not that picky, so it’s not so difficult to please her.
So what should be on the table for the New Year 2031?

There is an opinion that the pig is an omnivore. This is actually true. However, she is also picky. So you shouldn’t put everything on the New Year’s table either. At the same time, the pig loves order and is not without a craving for beauty. Hence the conclusion: the table should be varied and beautifully decorated.

You can serve almost anything on the table for the New Year 2031: meat, fish, poultry, salads, snacks and, of course, desserts. True, there are some restrictions regarding meat. Eastern astrologers believe that the hostess of the year will not like it if pork is present on the New Year's table. There are also opposing opinions, but they are, as a rule, poorly substantiated and have nothing to do with the traditions of Southeast Asia.

More specifically, there should be variety on the table this New Year. So this time you don’t have to make a whole bowl of Olivier and feed it to the whole family until Christmas. It is better to prepare many different salads and snacks, but in small quantities.

At the same time, Eastern astrologers advise placing both fish and meat dishes on the New Year's table. It wouldn’t be bad if there were dishes right there that included poultry. For example, it is quite acceptable to make chicken, duck or rabbit the main dish, and complement it with meat salads, the favorite herring under a fur coat and snacks in the form of sandwiches with caviar, as well as a variety of cuts. According to Chinese superstitions, such a variety of products will not only please the mistress of the year, but will also attract wealth to the house.

A few words about decorating dishes. As mentioned above, the pig loves beauty. So everything that should be on the table for the New Year 2031 requires decoration. As for decoration, everything is simple. The pig loves fresh herbs, which means dill, parsley, green onions and others like them will be very appropriate.

Another recommendation relates not to the set of dishes, but to their quality. The pig loves everything natural. She is far from loyal to semi-finished products purchased in supermarkets. It’s not that she doesn’t love them, but they don’t bring her much joy either. Therefore, it is desirable that everything - from a simple salad to a New Year's cake - be prepared with your own hands and, of course, with love.

By the way, about cakes. The hostess of 2031 will not understand if there is nothing sweet on the New Year's table 2031 in honor of the coming of her year. So, at least fruits must be present. Sweet pies or cakes will not be superfluous at all. It’s very good if the dessert is with berries and fruits. They can be used to decorate a cake or ice cream.

The pig also has its own favorite dishes. She loves cereals, preferring millet. So a little millet porridge It wouldn’t hurt on the holiday table either. You can present it in any form, for example, by making this simple salad:

    • millet – 60-70 g (1/4 cup);
    • chicken fillet– 150 g;
    • hard cheese – 80 g;
    • apple – 2 pcs.;
    • honey – 2 tablespoons;
    • lemon juice – 1 tablespoon;
    • sour cream – 100 ml;
    • salt, red and black pepper (ground) - to taste.

Boil chicken fillet and millet in different saucepans and cool. Cut the meat into cubes. Cut the peeled apples into cubes and fry in vegetable oil for 1 minute, then add honey to the pan and fry for another 2 minutes. Transfer the prepared fruits to a plate and cool too.
Mix sour cream with lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste. The resulting sauce will need to be lubricated with each layer of salad. All that's left is to collect the snack. Chicken fillet is laid down, then a layer of apples, then millet and a layer grated cheese. The top layer should also be greased with sauce. Sprinkle paprika on top of the salad and garnish with sprigs of dill or parsley. Before serving, let the millet salad sit in the refrigerator for an hour.

Such a wonderful snack will be a wonderful decoration for the holiday and will clearly appease the hostess of the New Year 2031. And most importantly, it is also budget-friendly, which is important. The pig is a zealous housewife. She will not understand if the holiday is organized with the last money. The table for the New Year, of course, needs to be organized, but in such a way that it does not hit your pocket too hard.

What and how should be placed on the table

For the New Year 2031, you will have to think through a lot. The Pig is quite pedantic, so it loves planning and order. So, firstly, the menu must be developed in advance - without this, no variety will be possible. Secondly, you need to take care of proper serving.

Perhaps we should start with the New Year's table. Of course, the most ideal option is a Chinese table with short legs. These are rare here, but fortunately, a regular round table for the New Year can be a good alternative. If this is not found, it doesn’t matter either. Any New Year's table can be covered with a new tablecloth. The pig will not be offended by this. As for the color of the tablecloth, there are no restrictions. Although some astrologers believe that pastel colors with a white tint would be more appropriate. The pig is still white.

It’s worth talking about serving separately. As mentioned above, the pig loves when there is a lot of food on the New Year's table and it is varied. The problem is that not every table can accommodate a large number of dishes. Yes, and overeat, even in New Year's Eve- not eating is healthy.

Here are a couple of tips:

  1. Do not prepare large quantities of each salad.
  2. It is not necessary to place each salad in a separate salad bowl. You can place several snacks on one large flat plate.

Otherwise, there is no need to invent anything extraordinary. Although, there is one more nuance. According to some sources, the lady of 2031 loves voluminous jewelry.
