An interesting interview with a historian especially interested in culinary traditions who focuses on pre war traditions tvn24.pl/magazyn-tvn24/ostrygi-z-cateringu-czyli-wigilia-po-polsku,249,4316 Main points: - it is a myth that it was communists who nobilitated carp for Polish Christmas after the war. It had happened a few centuries before when carp was considered noble fish, served at aristocratic and royal tables. Communists only reduced the availability of other fish popular as Christmas dishes before the war. - oysters, snails and lobsters were very popular on wealthy families` tables 100 years ago. - the poor used to eat herrings - the cheapest food. - almond soup ( a recipe in the photo) was more popular than the red borsh - boiling fish was more popular than frying - popular species for Christmas Eve supper was tench, bass, pike and pickerel. - fish faggots/balls were very popular - carp ala Jewish (with almonds, raisins, in sweet sauce) is in fact a Polish invention. Jews adopted it from Poles. ![](https://r-scale-a0.dcs.redcdn.pl/scale/o2/tvn/web-content/m/p1/i/6a508a60aa3bf9510ea6acb021c94b48/ef2bb21b-0974-46c5-a169-181be8e3c284.jpg?type=1&srcmode=3&srcx=0/1&srcy=0/1&srcw=1920&srch=1080&dstw=1920&dsth=1080&quality=80) ![](https://r-scale-60.dcs.redcdn.pl/scale/o2/tvn/web-content/m/p1/i/6a508a60aa3bf9510ea6acb021c94b48/a36798c2-8a24-4e6d-babb-ebd6591277f2.jpg?type=1&srcmode=4&srcx=0/1&srcy=0/1&srcw=1018&srch=2000&dstw=1018&dsth=2000&quality=80) ![](https://r-scale-a0.dcs.redcdn.pl/scale/o2/tvn/web-content/m/p1/i/6a508a60aa3bf9510ea6acb021c94b48/ab27ee56-31e6-47cc-a357-59dce3bd4c1c.png?type=1&srcmode=4&srcx=0/1&srcy=0/1&srcw=1018&srch=2000&dstw=1018&dsth=2000&quality=80) ![](https://r-scale-a0.dcs.redcdn.pl/scale/o2/tvn/web-content/m/p1/i/6a508a60aa3bf9510ea6acb021c94b48/0a942148-efa9-47be-a02f-61ba631311d0.png?type=1&srcmode=4&srcx=0/1&srcy=0/1&srcw=1018&srch=2000&dstw=1018&dsth=2000&quality=80) ![](https://r-scale-80.dcs.redcdn.pl/scale/o2/tvn/web-content/m/p1/i/6a508a60aa3bf9510ea6acb021c94b48/5343d9a4-4fa7-44be-ab2b-2db189e97aae.jpg?type=1&srcmode=4&srcx=0/1&srcy=0/1&srcw=1018&srch=2000&dstw=1018&dsth=2000&quality=80) ![](https://r-scale-e0.dcs.redcdn.pl/scale/o2/tvn/web-content/m/p1/i/6a508a60aa3bf9510ea6acb021c94b48/540808bf-5c59-47f9-9e60-107249c687e6.jpg?type=1&srcmode=4&srcx=0/1&srcy=0/1&srcw=1018&srch=2000&dstw=1018&dsth=2000&quality=80) ![](https://r-scale-a0.dcs.redcdn.pl/scale/o2/tvn/web-content/m/p1/i/6a508a60aa3bf9510ea6acb021c94b48/8eda5877-c1b1-4de5-9cd8-83275e00b00e.jpg?type=1&srcmode=4&srcx=0/1&srcy=0/1&srcw=1018&srch=2000&dstw=1018&dsth=2000&quality=80) ![](https://r-scale-20.dcs.redcdn.pl/scale/o2/tvn/web-content/m/p1/i/6a508a60aa3bf9510ea6acb021c94b48/ead3cd41-31b8-41bb-86da-9171040b0233.png?type=1&srcmode=4&srcx=0/1&srcy=0/1&srcw=1018&srch=2000&dstw=1018&dsth=2000&quality=80)
