On the eve of the new year, I want to think through everything to the smallest detail. Of course, first of all, you need to do a general cleaning in the house, remove all dust, dirt and clean out all the accumulated rubbish. After that, you need to dress up the Christmas tree and decorate all the rooms.

And only then you can proceed to compiling the menu for the New Year 2018. The New Year's table is the most responsible and at the same time difficult task. After all, it is important that the treats turn out not only elegant, but also very tasty.

How to make a holiday menu

Before you start preparing dishes for the festive table, it is worth developing a New Year's menu, according to which all treats will be prepared. New Year 2018 is the year of the Yellow Earth Dog. Therefore, first of all, it is worth paying attention to food that this particular animal will like.

• hot or cold;
• in aspic and aspic;
• chopped, portioned, whole carcass (chicken, for example).

The ideal option would be several varieties of meat - beef, lamb, chicken. Do not get carried away with pork meat, because the dog can not be fatty.

The main dish should not be heavily decorated. It can be served with a small amount of side dish - baked vegetables, potatoes, rice. It is also allowed to serve without a side dish. But when laying out slices, it is worth showing imagination and culinary skills.

Other meat-free treats

In addition to meat treats, you can put vegetable dishes on the table. This is especially true for those who follow a healthy diet. In addition, these treats are suitable for ardent vegetarians.

Dishes of fresh vegetables will ideally complement the festive table - cabbage salads with carrots, fresh cucumbers, tomatoes seasoned with vegetable oil and a few drops of lemon juice. You can add some nuts and cheese to vegetable snacks.

Do not forget about sweet treats for the New Year 2018. Some dogs are not averse to eating desserts, sweets, fruits, chocolate.

You can cook various delicacies and pastries:

• baking with cottage cheese;
• cakes with fruit and whipped cream;
• cheesecakes with berries and sour cream;

In the next video, there are some interesting ideas on how to beautifully and unusually decorate the New Year's Olivier salad that we are used to.

What is the New Year associated with? With sparkling snow, a fluffy Christmas tree, Santa Claus and gifts in his bag and, of course, with holiday treats. New Year is unthinkable without a hospitable, plentiful table, elegant and satisfying.

The upcoming year of the Yellow Earth Dog is very demanding and brings some culinary contemplation. Let's share some of them.

What does the dog not like?

The list of products that the hostess of 2018 does not favor is quite limited, since the dog is not a picky animal in gastronomic terms and is almost omnivorous. But, nevertheless, its "omnivorous" has some limits.

Some types of meat. There are no dog dishes on the New Year's table-2018. Joke! But in every joke, as you know, there is some truth. And the Koreans, for example, are not far from it. Horse meat is also not recommended for New Year's use. It is said that dogs and horses have a complicated relationship. It is better not to upset the hostess of the year. We need her favor!

Fully Vegetarian New Year's menu. The main type of dog food, even ordinary, not even astrological, is meat. And therefore, the New Year's table-2018 without meat dishes will look strange. We will save the carrot and cabbage menu for the Rabbit or Goat.

Fish assortment. Dogs are inquisitive creatures and they can try shrimp and bite the chop with a piece of fish, but, nevertheless, we will not mix sour with fresh, that is, Dog and Cat, and move the fish menu aside along with mushroom delicacies.

Fatty meals. Hearty menu does not mean fatty. Heavy food, oversaturated with fats, lies on the stomach with an unbearable burden and attracts with a magnet to the sofa. But what about games? What about fun? What about slides and fireworks? A dog is a very active animal that loves entertainment and fun. No need to turn it into a Pig, which will determine the menu in a year. In the meantime, we welcome 2018 and avoid fatty New Year's treats.

On a note: also do not be zealous with sugar, salt and spices. The Dog has a keen sense of smell and a sense of success and good luck. No need to dull it!

What do we feed the Yellow Earth Dog?

meat! In all its manifestations - rolls, meatballs, aspics, chops, steaks, kebabs, steaks, stews, goulash, roast beef, shank, cuts, sausages, pates, stews, carbonades ... And a lot of other meat yummy. Please the Dog! And she will answer you with mutual love and devotion. She's good at it.

The dog loves bones. You will please her very much if you choose a meat dish on the bone for the New Year's table: a rack of lamb, for example, or a chicken Kiev.

root crops. Do not forget that the Dog will come not simple, but Earthy. To emphasize this feature of it, we put on the New Year's table root crops in various modifications and what ripens in the ground - peanuts, for example. Of course, the most obvious and common Russian root crop is the potato. He has a place on the New Year's table as a side dish for meat. Turnips, rutabaga, carrots, radishes can also take part in the 2018 New Year's meal.

yellow and orange fruits. The dog is expected to be Yellow. We put on the table a vase with fruits - yellow apples, apricots, oranges and tangerines, amber melon and tender pineapple. A great New Year's dessert - easy and healthy!

Conclusion: the main concept of the New Year's table-2018 is hearty, simple, plentiful and varied, with an emphasis on meat dishes.

And now let's make a simple but tasty New Year's menu for the Yellow Earth Dog.

Snacks

Snacks are an important part of the holiday table. They disperse the appetite, prepare guests for the main hot dish and form the first impression of the table. Let's not deceive the Dog's expectations and give her what she loves the most - meat in the form elegantly served cold cuts. Boiled pork, smoked sausage, carbonate, ham, thinly sliced, rolled up in rolls and appetizing roses, delight the eye and whet the appetite.

Tip: for the preparation of cold cuts, you should use a wide knife or slicer. The thinner the slice, the more variations you will have to create voluminous compositions on a plate.

Check out our recipes for delicious hot and cold snacks for the New Year's menu for the Year of the Dog.

Chicken rolls with egg and olives

Delicate, melting in your mouth, beautiful and easy to prepare, these rolls will undoubtedly impress the hostess of the year and will be the first to disappear from the plates of the New Year's table.

We will need:

• chicken breast - 2 pieces of medium size;
• chicken egg - 2 pieces;
• canned pitted olives - 1 can (the color and size of the olives do not matter);
• cheese - 100 g (it is better to buy packaged cheese, already cut into thin slices or sticks);
• mayonnaise - 2 tbsp. spoons;
• flour - 2 tablespoons;
• parsley or dill - for decoration.

How to cook chicken rolls with olives.

• We cut the chicken breasts in half - “booklet”, that is, not completely. We need a wide and flat piece so that later we have something to roll into a roll. We beat off the resulting piece - without fanaticism! Chicken meat, in itself, is quite tender and does not require such efforts from the hammer as pork.
• We pepper the beaten chicken fillet, salt, grease with mayonnaise and leave it alone for a while - marinate.
• Break the eggs, beat, add flour and fry a thin omelette cake. There is one “highlight”: in order to give the omelette some piquancy, we crumble some olives into a beaten egg.

Important: do not combine the eggs! 1 egg + 0.5 tablespoon flour = 1 omelette.

• Let's start assembling. Put an omelette on the beaten chicken breast. Attach a stick of cheese to the edge of the breast. If the cheese is in slices, then put slices of cheese on top of the omelet.
• The resulting composition is tightly rolled up with a sausage. We fix it with a toothpick so that it does not turn around. The result should be 2 rolls - one from each breast.
• Frying is the final step. Roll the rolls in flour and fry in sunflower oil in a heated frying pan. We fry over low heat and under a closed lid - for a more uniform heat treatment. On each side - 15 minutes, that is, only 30 minutes.

You can replace the frying stage with baking. In this case, the oven temperature should be 180 °, cooking time - 30 minutes.

We serve: we wait for the rolls to cool down and cut them into rings, 3-4 cm thick. Sprinkle with fresh herbs.

God! What a flavor! The dog is already scratching at your door!

In this recipe you can use cheese mixture feta and cream cheese.

Hot appetizer "Meat nests"

An original and extremely easy-to-prepare recipe for a hot New Year's meat appetizer. The crispy texture of baked dryers filled with meat and cheese should please the Dog.

We will need:

• minced meat - 0.5 kg (beef, pork or chicken mince - at your discretion);
• drying - 0.5 kg;
• chicken egg - 1 piece;
• cheese - 200 g (fat content does not matter);
• mayonnaise - 1 tablespoon;
• salt and spices - to taste;
• lettuce leaves - for decoration.

Cooking method

• We bring minced meat to perfection. This means that we make it more fragrant and tastier - add salt, spices, mayonnaise and an egg to the minced meat. We mix everything well.
• We start drying. The minced meat brought to perfection is placed inside the dryers. On average, 1 teaspoon of minced meat with top is placed in one dryer. But don't be greedy! Put the minced meat with a slide, otherwise the Dog will think that you feel sorry for the minced meat for her.
• We bake. The filled "nests" are sprinkled with grated cheese on top, laid out on a baking sheet covered with a sheet of parchment paper, and sent to the oven. At an oven temperature of 200 degrees, the "nests" will be ready in 25 minutes.
• We serve. We lay fresh lettuce leaves on a flat plate and there are already “nests” on them, ruddy and terribly appetizing.

This appetizer is served slightly chilled so that the Dog does not get burned by swallowing them one by one.

New Year's cold appetizer "Herringbone"

New Year's snack option for creative personalities. Without a doubt, these baby Christmas trees will decorate the festive table. In addition, they contain 2 types of cheese and a minimum of fat, Dogs love this.

We will need:

• parmesan - 60 g;
• pita bread - 1 sheet;
• red sweet pepper - 2 pieces;
• lettuce leaves - a few;
• dark olives - 0.5 cups;
• basil - a little.

You will also need cling film.

Cooking method.

• Lay cling film on the table. On film - lettuce leaves. On lettuce leaves - a sheet of pita bread. Then the crucial stage - a sheet of pita bread along with lettuce is cut lengthwise, along the length - into 4 strips.
• Cooking flavored stuffing. Parmesan is rubbed on a fine grater, the olives are cut into small pieces, the basil is chopped and chopped, the pepper is cut into small squares. We combine this "crumble" with curd cheese and mix. It turns out a white mass with multi-colored splashes.
• Creation of a Christmas tree. We spread the finished filling-mixture in an even layer on the strips of pita bread and roll it up with a tight roll. This step needs to be careful. We make sure that the cling film does not climb inside the roll.
• Next, we give the roll a triangular shape with our hands and put it in the refrigerator for 2 hours.
  We cut the cooled roll into isosceles triangles 3-4 cm thick. We pin a piece of olive to the base of each with a toothpick or skewer.

All! The Christmas tree is ready! We spread our coniferous forest on a plate and send it to the New Year's table!

An exquisite recipe for refined persons. But at the same time, it contains chicken meat in its composition, which makes it a tasty prey for the Dog.

• We stack middle layer. It will be almond-egg. First, chopped roasted almonds are sprinkled. Then, on top of it - boiled eggs grated on a coarse grater.
  The second layer can also be smeared with mayonnaise. But you can skip this step.
• We make the finishing layer - cheese. Grated cheese is laid out on top of the eggs and leveled with mayonnaise.

We bring beauty. Grapes will represent the Christmas tree. To do this, we wash it, dry it, cut each berry in half and “cover” the top of the salad with grape “flakes”.

The main dish of the New Year's table - hot recipes

3. Double pleasure for the Dog, if the meat is on the bone - this is a delicacy squared! And finally, full compliance with the New Year's concept-2018 - meat with a potato side dish - a vegetable grown in the ground. This is already a culinary nod to the Earth Dog.

So, it's time to decide what to cook hot and tasty for the New Year 2018.

• vinegar - 1 teaspoon;
• salt, pepper - to taste.

Note: You will also need a baking sleeve.

Cooking method.

• Marinating meat. We cut the meat into medium pieces, put it in a bowl, add the onion, salt, pepper, soy sauce, vegetable oil, vinegar, chopped into rings. Mix everything properly so that the meat is saturated with additives. Cover the bowl with cling film and place in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
• While the meat is marinating in the refrigerator, turn on the oven and prepare the sleeve for baking - we tie it at one end.
• We put the pickled meat in a sleeve and tie it from the other end. Lay the sleeve on a baking sheet. To release steam, we make several holes in the sleeve. The baking sheet is placed on the middle shelf of the oven and left for 1 hour at a temperature of 200 °.

Like this! You can cook an excellent barbecue without leaving your apartment and treat it to the hostess of the year.

Decoration of dishes

A beautiful festive table in the Year of the Dog is:

• the presence on the table of the heroine of the holiday in any modification: in the form of a cute figurine of a lop-eared puppy or his “photo” on a plate with salad;
• cold cuts laid out in a special way;
• active use of New Year's symbols: a Christmas tree - from dill, a star - from a tomato or red pepper, New Year's beads - from corn and pomegranate seeds, cones - from almond nuts, snowmen - from boiled chicken and quail eggs fastened with a toothpick;
• funny muffins in the form of furry dogs, the role of shaggy wool is very convincingly played by butter cream.

And the last tip under this gastronomic curtain: if you have a dog in the house, find her a place at your New Year's table. Let her feel that her year is coming - the Year of the Yellow Earth Dog - generous, hospitable, sincere, a true friend of man!

The year of the Rooster is coming to an end and very soon the Dog will enter into its legal rights. She will become the “hostess” of 2018. Preparations for the New Year's Eve always begin in advance, because you need to think through every detail: choose a festive outfit, come up with congratulations, buy gifts and think over treats. Each hostess is “puzzling over” what to cook for the New Year 2018 and is looking for outstanding recipes with photos, so we decided to prepare an article that will help create an appetizing and original New Year’s menu.

The dog belongs to the active, cheerful and gluttonous animals. Therefore, it is better to meet the year of the dog in 2018 with a full festive table, then the next 365 days you will be lucky. Efforts must be made so that no one remains hungry, so that everyone present can taste their favorite dish.

Mandatory products on the table in the year of the yellow earth dog

1. Beef, veal, lamb or rabbit should be included first when listing foods. It is recommended not to fry the meat, but to boil or bake it. In this form, the meat will be easier to digest, then everyone will feel light and active, which is what you need. But the choice, of course, is yours! :)
2. Poultry meat can also be present in the festive dishes. You can use not only chicken, but also the meat of goose, turkey, duck and other types of birds.
3. Fish, seafood and mushrooms can diversify meat abundance.
4. 2018 is the year of the yellow dog, so look for meals that include vegetables, fruits, legumes, and grains that are brown or yellow. You can use potatoes, pumpkin, peppers, yellow tomatoes, corn, beets, pineapples and other ingredients.

How to please and appease a yellow dog?

The basis of New Year's dishes should be meat dishes. They can be anything, it all depends on your personal taste preferences. You can also treat with aspic, pork knuckle, boiled pork, grilled steaks, chops, meatballs, kebabs, jellied meat, baked duck, grilled chicken, pates, julienne and many others. Salads based on boiled meat can diversify the menu. Any meat cuts, which may include any sausage, balyk, ham, jamon, basturma, dried chicken, and so on, will also be appropriate. Each ingredient must be thinly sliced ​​so that a three-dimensional composition can be formed from the slices. Classic sandwiches with red caviar or salted red fish will also be useful. Pickled mushrooms, olives, etc. can complement the gastronomic variety.

The new 2018 will undoubtedly be remembered by the representatives of the strong half who love meat dishes. But for fragile girls there are many interesting recipes that will not affect the figure.

What should not be on the holiday table

The future hostess of the year will not appreciate fish dishes, in which there are a lot of small bones, so pike, carp and other river fish should be excluded from the festive menu. The animal will not like the “herring under a fur coat”, beloved by many. When preparing cold cuts, make sure that it does not contain horse sausage. It is known that dogs do not like to eat these animals. Admirers of Korean cuisine should give up exotic dishes and do not cook dishes from dog meat. According to Feng Shui experts, it is worth removing broken noodles from the menu, as it turns out that its length affects longevity. Do not tease the dog with fast food dishes (hot dogs, burgers).

It is not advisable to serve too carbonated drinks on the table - kvass, lemonade, beer. An earthen dog will not be delighted with strong drinks either.

New Year's menu for the New Year's holiday table 2018

So, as cold appetizers, you can serve Christmas balls, small sandwiches with boiled pork and cucumbers, meat rolls with cheese, eggs stuffed with red caviar, profiteroles with crab, mushroom or cheese filling, meat fingers with bacon or cheese, boiled pork and more.

French meat, pork rolls with pineapple, julienne with chicken, mushrooms and cheese, meat in Provence, rabbit baked with herbs, pork with berry sauce, marinated chicken breast, etc. can be served hot.

For the main one, you can cook chicken fricassee, baked duck, roast pork, beef in pots, baked salmon, baked squid with tomatoes, stewed lamb with vegetables, chicken tobacco, chicken with oranges or vegetables, and more.

Desserts for the holiday table choose to your taste. The yellow dog does not limit you in the choice of sweets. Therefore, you can “walk around” here 🙂 You can bake cookies and cakes on your own or order a small one decorated in accordance with the main symbol of the year. Don't forget to use jellies and creams to complement your desserts. Decorate finished products with fruits and nuts.

You can serve vegetables and fruits on the table in any quantity and any form. An earth dog willingly eats vegetables and will not refuse to eat fruits. So you can safely include any vegetable and fruit snacks in the menu. For a large company, you can prepare fruit salads. The ingredients, cut into large pieces and laid out in small transparent salad bowls for each guest individually, will look very stylish and beautiful.
