Korovai Bread - A Traditional Ukrainian Ceremonial Wedding Bread

[@valeriya105]

I’m Ukrainian and I love watching this! Especially that y’all don’t have Russian accents makes it even more fun to watch! lol

What a heartwarmingly beautiful video!! How incredibly wonderful to share in such special moments of love. I always cry at weddings, today's video was no exception.. you kinda got me going in the kitchen! I have to say you looked SO SO beautiful at the wedding! Always pretty, but wow at the wedding! You are a very special lady, Alessandra, talented, beautiful, generous, and most of all your love of others really shines through everything you do. Love you, Roma

Dear Roma, Now you have me crying. Sending you a virtual hug. Your words truly touched my heart. Life is getting busy and I feel so guilty when I can’t post any videos. It’s almost as I’m Doing an injustice to my fans that are like friends. Then I get a comment like yours and I know that I need to keep going and make time. I’m so glad that I got you going in the kitchen. Food is indeed love. Thank you for the so so beautiful! 💖💖💖 it’s nice to get dressed up and so special to be part of the celebration. Morgan and family lived next to us and she’s grown up with our daughters. A few years back she even came to Italy with us and it was so nice. So many beautiful memories Grazie di cuore for taking time to watch and comment. 💖💖💖

Hi Alessandra looking good at the Wedding. Nice of you to help them out. Congrats to the two Morgan and Peter. I know I'll be trying to make that Korovai but all those fancy birds and things I don't know.

[@alessandrasfoodislove]

Thank you so much Tommy! Made 5 Korovai in total. One more delicious than the other. I just needed to get the perfect one for the wedding. Not embarrassed to say the second one I baked I overlooked it and too was too dark. It tends to get very dark because of the eggs and butter. I kind of was glad because I brought it to a friend’s home and enjoyed it with espresso. It’s a brioche bread/challah consistency. Happy baking

Hi thanks for this recipe but what can we do to replace egg in the bread dough please??

[@elibrod9981]

Korovai comes from the times when Ancient Russ was still pagan. such thing as “Ukraine” never existed until the beginning of 20 century. This bread is a cymbal of Sun worship.

Thank your for the explanation .
