Ossetian pies and Georgian Khinkali (dumplings) are served there at feasts. Earlier than consuming, they pray to Uastyrdzhi, the celestial being, but rejoice the Christian holidays too. Meals in Ossetia is one among an important parts of tradition. When friends come over, the hostess places everything she has on the desk, and if something is missing she borrows it from her neighbors. It is inconceivable to have a feast without food, although the principle thing in it is not food however endless toast-prayers and a heart-to-coronary heart discuss. We selected the most popular dishes, but, as traditional, they became solely an occasion to speak about traditions, the Soviet previous, and rural life.

Now make the brown butter to glaze the pies later. Have a heatproof bowl on the ready. Heat the 50g (13/4oz) of butter in a saucepan over a medium-low heat till it starts foaming and then changes color to deep golden and begins smelling nutty. Immediately tip it from the recent pan into the bowl, otherwise it could actually proceed cooking and will burn. Put aside for later.
