According to the Chinese horoscope, the next will be the year of the Fire Rooster. In anticipation of the holiday, the hostesses think about what to cook for the new 2017 year of the rooster. In this article, women will learn the main signs and the best options for dishes for the New Year.

The Fire Rooster character is pedantic enough. But still, when choosing a menu, you should be guided by the following criteria:

• Brightness. The bird representing the holiday is brightly colored. Therefore, in order to appease the symbol of the New Year, there should be at least 12 dishes on the table, decorated in bright colors.
• Simplicity, elegance. The cooking process should not take long. Because such a holiday needs to be spent with the family.

Prohibited foods for cooking in 2017

Each New Year, symbolizing an animal, is accompanied by its own signs associated with the preparation of festive meals. The Fire Rooster is quick-tempered enough, and in order for the year to be successful, it is necessary to appease the symbol of the year from the first day. It is believed that in 2017, there should not be an abundance of fried or salty foods on the festive table.

It is undesirable for the festive table to contain dishes from the following products:

1. Chicken. This requirement is quite justified, because the Rooster will not like that they want to eat him.
2. Eggs. Fans of Olivier or other salads using this ingredient will be upset in vain. Because you can't put stuffed eggs on the table. But it is allowed to use quail eggs or finely grate chicken eggs into salads so that the symbol of the year does not notice them in the dish.
3. Strong alcohol. The Strict Rooster does not like such drinks on the table.

Festive menu options for the New 2017

Each family has a different income level, so advice on food is recommendatory. In addition, it is difficult to take into account the taste preferences of each family member, known only to the mistress of the house.

Particular attention should be paid to table setting. The tablecloth should be plain and dull. The dishes should be made of wood, clay or glass. The napkins should be of the same shade as the tablecloth. It is not necessary to try to make all salads or dishes in the form of a symbol of the year, because not every woman has the time and imagination to create such masterpieces. But putting children's candies with a cock in a vase will be an unusual solution. In order to please the Rooster, you can pour millet into a separate container and put it on the table for beauty.

The symbol of the year prefers cocktails, wines and champagne as drinks. Families with children should consider juices and compotes for toddlers.

To placate the symbol of 2017, fresh vegetables and fruits should prevail on the table. The more of them on the table, the more successful the year will be. Fire Rooster loves sweets, so serve fruit or sweet salads, pastries or cake. Since there are 12 months in a year, there should be 12 symbols on the table at least twelve dishes for the year to be successful in material terms. What to cook for the new 2017 year of the rooster? Housewives, taking into account the signs and wishes, can put the following dishes on the table:

Asian food

It will be original if the hostess cooks completely 12 dishes from such a kitchen. Sushi, fruit rolls, frunchoza salads. A special place will be occupied by "Japanese salad".

To prepare it you will need:

• Boiled rice - from 200-230 gr
• Bank of sprat;
• Carrots - 1 pc;
• Garlic - 1 clove;
• Mayonnaise - 1-2 tbsp. l.
• Add salt, black peppercorns or spices to taste.

Grate carrots with garlic on a fine grater. Then add rice, sprats, mayonnaise. Mix thoroughly, salt and pepper.

Conservation. Perhaps the hostess has pickled tomatoes, cucumbers, pepper salads in the bins of the pantry. New Year is the right time to get hold of the fruits of summer labor.

Slicing ... Balyk, ham, cheese will perfectly decorate any table. It is ideal if there is a red fish on the table, which the Fire Rooster loves.

Sandwiches ... The classic version of such a dish is a sprat sandwich. Butter bread with sprats, fresh cucumber or tomato. The hostess can show her imagination and change the traditional sandwich in this way:

• Put sprats in the shape of a Christmas tree on greased bread.
• Sprinkle on top with a mixture of grated cheese, two tablespoons of mayonnaise and a clove of garlic.

Sandwiches with red fish or liver pate are ideal. To make such a pate, it is enough to stew the beef liver with sour cream and onions, twist it in a meat grinder or using a blender, add to boiled milk with butter. Beat the resulting product with a blender.

Snacks ... You can decorate the tartlets with various fillings instead of ordinary sandwiches. An interesting and easy-to-prepare snack will be a pita roll with cheese.

To prepare it you will need:

• Pita;
• Garlic - 2-3 cloves;
• Mayonnaise 100-150 gr or by eye.
• Cheese - 100-200 gr;
• A bunch of dill;

Grate cheese and garlic. Add finely chopped dill. Add mayonnaise to the mixture. Expand the pita bread, add the filling, roll it up and put it in the refrigerator for an hour. Cut the resulting appetizer and serve.

Garnish ... Most women prefer potatoes as a side dish. Boiled, baked potatoes or mashed potatoes - at the discretion of the hostess.

Meat ... There are many variations in the preparation of this ingredient. Chopped burgers are a tasty and economical option. , baked in foil and cheese, will also please all residents. Perhaps jellied meat will be the most desired dish at the holiday. Chops are not worth doing because the Rooster doesn't like fried.

Mushrooms ... Champignons stewed in sour cream are quite simple to prepare and delicious. If you want an exquisite dish with your favorite ingredient, the best option would be the French julienne dish.

Beef liver ... Stew the liver with sour cream and onions and serve if the hostess does not have the desire to make pate. A creative and unusual option would be to make a liver cake.

Fish ... Lots of cooking options with this ingredient. Baked or fried in batter - all at the discretion of the hostess.

Bakery products ... Since the Rooster loves millet, the baked goods should be made from wheat flour. On the table you can serve meat pies, sweet biscuit cakes, choux pastries, holiday cookies. With multicooker, baking biscuit cakes will not take much time.

desserts ... A simple option would be to purchase ice cream in advance. In the bowl, add fruit to the ingredient. Fruit salads are also perfect for a festive table. To save time, you can simply serve jelly in the bowls.

Salads ... The advantage of this dish is its ease of preparation. It's time to abandon the usual Olivier and bring creativity to the New Year's menu. The standard, simple one will be called "Fur coat or herring under a fur coat." This dish has been tested by time and the experience of grandmothers.

Unusual salads

Unusual salads include:

• Salad with a combination of cheese, canned pineapple and garlic. To prepare it, you need to grate 200 grams of cheese, 2 cloves of garlic. Add canned pineapple and mayonnaise to taste.

• Mistress or Mistress's Kiss salad. This dish combines the flavors of garlic and sweet raisins. To prepare it, you need to boil two medium beets or one very large and steam 100 gr. raisins. Then rub two or three carrots. Put steamed raisins on a layer of carrots, brush with mayonnaise. The second layer consists of grated cheese (200 gr.) And two or three cloves of garlic. Then finish off the grated beetroot layer. Decorate with walnuts.

• Salad consisting of beef tongue and carrots. To prepare it, you need to boil 300 gr. beef or tongue. Then cut two onions into half rings and sauté in vegetable oil. On another speed sauté three medium carrots, grated on a grater. Cut two or three pickles into strips. The ingredient can be replaced with gherkins, which can be used for cooking no more than 7 pieces. Then squeeze out the garlic. Mix everything, salt, pepper and add mayonnaise.

As everyone already knows, the upcoming 2019 Year will be held under the sign of the Yellow Earth Pig. And therefore, according to the already established tradition, we began to take this fact into account when preparing for the solemn day.

We are trying to find out better what to expect from the coming period. We read horoscopes, trying to figure out how the Symbol of the next 365 days can affect our lives. And of course, we first of all prepare for the celebration, considering what the Master of the Year loves! To placate him, and to help make the next segment of our life successful in all respects for us!

And for this we select for ourselves the appropriate holiday outfit. We purchase necessary and beautiful gifts for friends and relatives, and of course we set a beautiful festive table.

And there is not a single hostess or host who would not ask himself the question "What to cook for the festive table?" After all, this question is by no means rhetorical. We will all put on aprons on December 30, 31 and settle down in our kitchen for a long time. After all, you need to have time to prepare appetizers, salads, main dishes and desserts.

And in order not to forget anything, and not to cook anything superfluous, you need to draw up a menu in advance. It will help you plan what you need to buy. Purchase in advance what can be stored for a long time, and buy perishable food the day before.

When drawing up a menu for the Year of the Yellow Pig, it is necessary to take into account some peculiarities. Let's consider the wishes for the holiday menu.

• Firstly, Pig is omnivorous, which means we will cook completely different and delicious dishes.
• secondly, the Boar is not against different types of meat, and he will be happy with beef, lamb, chicken, fish and seafood. Do not forget that we are not serving pork in any form this evening.
• thirdly, the image of the Master of the Year in the design of dishes will be very useful.
• fourthly, the bright, colorful design of the dishes will delight Piggy. Who will refuse when such a holiday is arranged in his honor?
• fifth, the dishes should be homemade, tasty and cooked with love. It is always more pleasant to deal with a calm domestic pig than with a hungry angry boar.
• sixth, do not abuse strong drinks. And then by chance you can fall asleep at the table, burying your face in the salad. And then everyone will not compare you with the Pig in the best way !!!

However, the outgoing year can be well spent. To say thank you to the owner of the passed segment of life - to thank the Yellow Dog for all the good that she did for us. Therefore, it can be carried out by making a small salad with her image.

Here are the basic wishes for the menu. If you manage to comply with them, then it will be just great! The Boar and the Pig will not disregard this. They will understand that we show this respect and respect to them.

Well, that's good for us too. We also want our festive table to be beautiful and tasty "home-style" set. Therefore, in this, our desires coincide with him!

Let me offer you options for dishes, from which you can create an excellent menu for your table without much hassle and long searches.

On the menu, as it should be, snacks, salads (and pay attention to the link that will lead you to the most beloved and most demanded - there are a lot of them!).

The main dishes are presented with recipes for delicious and beautiful meat, fish, duck.

I also paid much attention to desserts and drinks. After all, we are preparing for a real big holiday. Therefore, you need to think about everything!

On the festive table, we usually prepare several different options for snacks, put meat, fish and vegetable plates, prepare two or three salads, one main hot dish and dessert, it can be cake, mousse, jelly, soufflé. Pies are often baked, dumplings are molded and boiled. Alcoholic and non-alcoholic cocktails, strong drinks are also served on the table.

Happy New Year! And let your festive table be the best!

In the pre-holiday bustle, they devote a lot of time to choosing gifts, decorating housing, they begin to plan an outfit for the celebration in advance, and they do all this, taking into account the features and requirements of the symbol of the coming New Year.

This is not to say that the table gets little attention, but when purchasing expensive products, housewives are more often guided by the preferences of their family, from year to year they cook, even if they are loved, the same dishes. This is a big mistake. Special attention should be paid to treats when celebrating the New Year.

What to put on our beautiful table?

When deciding what to cook for the Year of the Rooster and which menu to choose for the New Year, we will take into account the preferences of the future symbol - elegance, simplicity, naturalness. To appease the Fire Rooster, remember that this is a bird that can not be called greedy in any way. therefore the main wish for the New Year's table is wealth, not excesses... Do not try to be sophisticated in culinary delights - dishes should be understandable, not too pretentious, but suggest a choice for a variety of tastes.

The traditional set - appetizers, salads, cuts, sandwiches, hot dishes and desserts - will provide a delicious and plentiful feast worthy of a fiery representative of birds.

Why does not belong on the table

In order not to upset the proud bird, think about which dishes on your menu the Rooster would not be delighted with. The answer will come immediately - prepared from his relatives!

1. Rule # 1 for the 2017 New Year's table: no chicken! If you are very fond of roast poultry, it is better to cook some kind of competitor in the poultry yard: duck, goose or turkey.
2. A rooster who is responsible for his offspring can be alerted by too openly served egg dishes: stuffed, jellied or used entirely in a salad, for example, in the form of mushrooms or snowmen. At the same time, eggs may well be part of other dishes: it is no secret that chickens readily feast on them.

Preferred foods for New Year's meals

When thinking about making a menu, choose products that suit your family and guests' tastes, while not contradicting the symbolism of this year.

1. A maximum of vegetables, the most diverse, better than multi-colored, especially "fiery" shades.
2. Fish and other seafood: a representative of oriental culture (the calendar is Chinese!) Will surely please.
3. Side dishes are always to the taste of the feathered symbol. Of course, cereal dishes may seem rustic for a New Year's table, but the same rice can be cooked in a very unusual and festive way.
4. Salads shouldn't be too complicated, with a lot of ingredients: Rooster loves “clear”, simple, traditionally favorite flavors. Prepare the family's favorite holiday salads.
5. For dessert, take care of baking, because the grains from which the flour is made are the first delicacy for the Rooster, and then such delicious crumbs will remain! It is better that the dishes were prepared by hand, and not bought ready-made: poultry will appreciate the family energy invested and multiply it. A very good option is painted gingerbreads hung on a Christmas tree. Country poultry will also be delighted with cheesecake-type cottage cheese desserts.
6. Do not skimp on greens: what could be better for a rooster than fresh grass? Use it in salads as well as decorating dishes.
7. When choosing between homemade and store-bought, opt for more natural foods. For example, mayonnaise for home-made salads is much tastier than purchased, and milk for custard should certainly not be powdered. You need to put your hands on this New Year's table: believe me, the result will be worth it!

Chicken meat can always be replaced with turkey, or any other, and chicken eggs - with indoutine, or quail.

The Rooster does not make any special demands on drinks, but nevertheless, as a male representative, he will like stronger options, although he should not refuse traditional champagne to the chimes either.

Hot dish. What is the main dish to choose for the Year of the Rooster

There are two options: either a traditional chicken, or quails cooked in the same way, a duck, or a goose. They will yield to chicken in terms of taste, and maybe the guests will like them more.

You can also make a beef roll as the main dish, or a home-style roast with pork. It will not hurt to bring the dish to a crisp during cooking, and decorate it brighter when serving.

We offer a few more New Year's hot dishes to choose from.

The peoples of the world honor their traditions of celebrating the New Year. In our country, it is a decorated Christmas tree, the belief “as you meet, so you will spend it” and an abundant feast. Almost all housewives at least once swore not to cook an incredible amount of salads and snacks, but very few people manage to avoid stepping on the same rake again. Apparently, the Russian people did not follow the path of practical Europeans, but the Chinese mentality turned out to be closer. The custom of respecting the owner of the coming year according to the eastern horoscope, in 2017 - this is the Rooster, has become another national fun. Well, let's get ready for the full program. It remains to clarify what should be on the New Year's table, and which dishes it is better to refuse and start drawing up the menu.

In this article:

Brief description of the year of the Rooster

In 2017, the Red Fire Monkey will be replaced by a Rooster of the same suit. The element will remain the same, and the cocky bird will add brightness, activity and unpredictability to it. You will not be bored, but no special cataclysms are expected. For those who delve into the peculiarities of the owner's character, the year of the Rooster promises to be stable and successful. So you should be lucky.

The head of a large family is not used to giving in to difficulties, he is homely, reliable, always up to date. The fiery tail makes rivals fearful, and the red comb speaks of belligerence, irascibility, and audacity. The rooster is a born leader: hardworking, neat, practical, decisive. On the other hand, this is a dandy and amorous Don Juan.

To please the Rooster: what should be and what has no place on the table

Versatile and greedy for everything exquisite, the cockerel is by no means a vegetarian. He is not averse to nibbling on delicious meat, but not from his own kind and cooked with a "twist". Chicken, turkey, goose, duck and other birds are something that should definitely not be on the table.

But a beautifully baked leg of lamb or red fish, a rabbit in sour cream, dishes of beef, veal, pork are an excellent choice and a balm for the soul of the owner of the year. Cuts of sausages and smoked meats, according to Rooster, are not a very natural product. But, if you serve them in the form of canapes with slices of grain bread, it is quite possible to please the owner.

The cockerel would nibble on the grains, but bright, beautiful ones. Sandwiches with red caviar immediately come to mind. The dish is decent, but slightly boring, and it does not have to be on the table at all. Offer your virtual guest an adequate and more familiar replacement. Place a small vase with millet, millet or sprouted grains and a "bunch" of greens.

Chicken eggs are a controversial issue. Alternatively, do without, but the taste of salads can suffer greatly and undermine your image of a skillful housewife. Just do not use them impudently, for decoration, and for the rest - why not?

If you have big plans for the Year of the Rooster, and it is simply necessary to enlist the support of a patron, give up completely traditional salads (or leave a couple) and arrange an impromptu garden on the New Year's table. Spread the assorted vegetable cuts on large plates and season generously with herbs.

Sweet berries and fruits are another favorite delicacy of birds. They can be served in a large vase or in several small ones, laid out arbitrarily on the table, under the tree, in other places, and decorated with desserts. Make an original fruit salad. Both the Rooster and the children will be delighted with this delicacy.

New Year without champagne, like Santa Claus without gifts. And the light, bubbling contents of the bottle resemble the character of an invisible guest. What else should be on the New Year's table of drinks is up to you. Serve them not in the usual way, but in the form of cocktails. Firstly, it is tasty and beautiful, and secondly, “cocktail” literally means “cock's tail”.

New Year's menu 2017 in the best rooster traditions

The feathered guest is an omnivorous bird, and he treats his large family with what Mother Nature or caring owners have in store for him. So there are no specific recommendations for drawing up the 2017 New Year's menu. Each housewife can set the table at her discretion, avoiding products that should not be in principle - chicken meat, a minimum of eggs.

But a few useful tips will help you organize the process in such a way that the manager of the New Year's holiday will appreciate your homeliness, prudence and practicality. This is important, the cockerel is very picky about the female sex. Coax him with the following actions:

• discuss the assortment of dishes with all the participants of the feast;
• sketch out a preliminary menu and make a list of products;
• distribute to whom what and at what time to buy;
• involve assistants in cooking by appointing yourself as a chef;
• at the finishing stage, take a look at everything with a master's gaze and apply the final touches;
• set the table and in a good mood and celebrate the holiday.

However, remember that the menu for the Year of the Rooster should not be heavy either in calories or in terms of preparation. Pick up one hot dish, you can keep the traditional salads "Olivier" and "Herring under a fur coat." Let the rest of the snacks be light, with a touch of elegance, but without unnecessary pretentiousness.

Play of color: table setting and dish decoration

So, the festive menu has been drawn up, preparation is in full swing, it remains only to think over the setting of the New Year's table. Esthete Rooster will not tolerate negligence, excessive asceticism or pomp, so try to find a middle ground. Consider the options for how the table should be set.

Rustic style:

• embroidered tablecloth;
• linen napkins;
• wooden or ceramic dishes;
• wicker vases for bread, fruits, sweets;
• for decoration - bouquets of natural spikelets, dried flowers;
• you can bake cock-shaped cookies.

In red and white colors:

• snow-white tablecloth, red napkins and cutlery;
• burgundy or scarlet table cover, light dishes;
• you can use plates and glasses with gilding;
• the composition will not suffer if diluted with green or blue.

The food on the New Year's table should look bright and attractive. Aristocratic pallor or modest grayness does not suit even the most delicious dishes that night. Suitable for decoration:

• bell pepper;
• carrot;
• cherry tomatoes;
• corn or pomegranate grains;
• salmon slices;
• citrus slices.

There is never too much greenery in the year of the Rooster. Let him nibble on the weed. Scatter sprigs of dill, parsley, cilantro and anything else in the house on the plates.

How delicious and beautiful everything is, right now I want to sit down at the New Year's table. You will probably do even better. Get creative with organizing your party and enter 2017 with a cock's fuse.

How to celebrate the New Year 2017: what to cook for the festive table of the Fire Rooster

So, the main question of all housewives: what to cook for the festive table and how to celebrate the New Year of the Rooster 2017 nourishing and tasty, in abundance, so that, according to popular beliefs, spend the whole year like that.

The festive feng shui table looks unusual and fabulously elegant. Red tablecloth with gold embroidery and fringe or lace in gold color, napkins with the symbol of the year. On the table are figurines of a cockerel. And although the dominant geometric figure of the year is a triangle, the table should not have corners. Oval and round tabletops will be ideal for a family or a friendly feast. But if your table is traditionally rectangular, mask the sharp parts of it with decorations - colorful New Year's mini-compositions.

If your tablecloth is white, it doesn't matter, plates and napkins, salad bowls, gravy boats, candles can be red. It doesn't have to be a pattern. Creativity and individuality are not prohibited. You can just buy red and yellow ribbons and tie them with bows on the backs of chairs - budget, bright, and New Years style.

Another New Year's accessory that you shouldn't forget is the golden bell. Get creative and tie these bells to objects that often move: to the legs of chairs, to doorknobs. Let the chime drive away evil spirits and fill the house with festive notes.

New Year's menu in the Year of the Rooster

So, we took care of the New Year's decor, now let's think about what to cook on the table for the New Year 2017, which dishes are most suitable. And above all, these are the ones that the Rooster loves. When drawing up a New Year's menu, a good hostess will try to please not only her family and guests, but also the patron animal of the coming year.

In all matters, the Rooster strives for the ideal, he is demanding and practical. What dishes will please such a fastidious guest? Be sure to place a vase with tangerines arranged in a pyramid in the center of the table. The rooster will love this bright accent.

He will be very grateful for the variety of dishes. A buffet table is the most suitable way to decorate the table in order to provide easy, casual communication, which our hero values ​​so much. Salads from vegetables, both fresh and hot or canned, with the addition of meat and fish. Even an ordinary vinaigrette, laid out in small baskets, will transform and become an original dish. Fruit salads or simply skewered fruit mixes. All kinds of whole grain bread canapes with pastas, pates and cheeses, as well as beautifully presented cuts.

An abundance of fresh vegetables and herbs not only decorate the table, but also appease the Fire Rooster. When choosing salads, give preference to vegetable and fruit.

On hot small triangular-shaped dumplings and cabbage rolls are suitable. Prepare them in advance and freeze them. Thus, you will free yourself up more time in the pre-New Year's bustle, when you will have no time to prepare such time-consuming dishes.

Fish and meat dishes will also be appropriate, but their number in the total mass should not prevail. And although the host of the holiday is far from an ascetic, chicken and other poultry should be completely abandoned. Chinese horoscope signs cannot stand cannibalism. The same requirement applies to eggs. So the traditional "bowl with olivier" is not this time.

Dishes from cereals and cereals will surely please the patron of the year. But ordinary oatmeal or buckwheat are not options for the New Year's table. You can make kozinaki with seeds, nuts and honey, caramelized popcorn, halva, baklava generously sprinkled with sesame seeds and nuts, herringbone-shaped oatmeal cookies and sprinkled with coconut.

For dessert serve well ice cream with jam and fruit, mousse, multi-colored puff jelly. The rooster loves variety, but does not tolerate excessive wastefulness, so the table should not "burst with food", choose the options for the dishes optimally so as not to burden the stomach and be easy-going, just like a cockerel flying onto a roof or a perch.

As for drinks, then here too you have to show your imagination. Cocktails match the festive mood well and go well with the New Year's table. They can be selected both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. If you really want to impress your guests, then you should practice in advance and learn how to pour drinks in layers. Otherwise, just mix the ingredients right in front of the audience, according to your recipe or as guests wish. This will add originality to the holiday. Berry fruit drinks and bright red compotes will also be good. And, of course, champagne is a symbol of a holiday and a vibrant life!

Did you know that the very word cocktail in translation from English means cock - cock, tail - tail, that is, "cock's tail". The first written description dates back to 1806 and is referred to in TheBallance as a stimulant drink composed of several spirits, liqueurs, and sugar.

And the most important component of the New Year's festive table is the wonderful mood of the hostess, who created all this beauty. Do not forget to season them with dishes that will delight both the family and guests, and the fastidious host of the coming year.

♦ If you want to live in prosperity, put a large bill in your pocket and do not change it throughout the year. She will attract “her fellows”. Try not to part with it and carry it with you all the time as a talisman for wealth.

♦ During the striking of the clock, hold in your hand a coin made of yellow metal, the year will be profitable. And if you want to attract love, put a photo of your chosen one (chosen one) closer to your heart and do not part with him all New Year's Eve.

♦ Did you know that you cannot throw food from the New Year's table, it is believed that happiness can leave the house. Put everything neatly in trays and put it in the fridge, invite your friends the next day and keep celebrating until you’re finished.

♦ During the feast, make sure that whoever gets the last drops from the bottle in the glass will be happy in the new year.

♦ Good omen for those whose activities are related to trade. Give the first buyer a good discount in the new year, then your business success will not leave you throughout the year.
