Hinweis der Redaktion

  1. Hello! I am _________ and my topic is….The Celts.
  2. Food Traditions: From Ancient Times to Modern Days. Representatives of Celtic nations Asterix and Obelix from Gallia will help me to introduce eating habits of ancient Celts and leprechauns from Ireland will demonstrate modern culinary highlights.
  3. Who were the Celts? The Celts were a group of people who spread over the European continent sometime around 1000-700 B.C.
  4. 4 -They spoke a language which we now refer to as Celtic. As other groups of people moved around Europe, the Celts were pushed into the western regions of the continent.
  5. 5 - Historically, Celtic tribes inhabited most of the European continent, and Celtic languages were spoken from Spain to Austria, from Belgium to Turkey.
  6. 6 - Celtic nations. Six nations are most associated with a modern Celtic identity, and are considered 'the Celtic nations' - Brittany, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Isle of Man, Cornwall.
  7. 7 - They are considered to be Celtic by the Celtic League and the Celtic Congress mainly because of language as in these six regions, Celtic languages have survived and continue to be used. Perhaps the best known remaining Celtic language is Gaelic.
  8. 8- Celtic ancient Festivals. Festivals were very important to the ancient Celts. They were held for many reasons - to honor their gods, to cement relationships and to provide recreation. Participation in the festivities was compulsory!
  9. 9 – There are many important Celtic Festivals that take place to this day – Samhain (October 31, which is start of Celtic New Year • Origins of Halloween); Imbolc (Around January 31st • Celebrate the end of Winter) Beltain (May 1st • Fire Festival • Origin of May Day); Solar Festivals (midsummer celebrations)
  10. 10 - At festivals, people competed in games, sang and listened to music. There was a great deal of drinking. The Celts made a honey-based beer called mead.
  11. 11 - Ancient Celtic cuisine was based on salted meat. Main dishes consisted of boiled pork, roast beef, bread, game (дичь), fish with cheese, curds, milk and butter. This was followed with beer and wines for the wealthy. The potato was not introduced to Europe until years after Columbus discovered America. Therefore, there were no potatoes in ancient Celtic recipes, just the cabbage and turnips.
  12. 12-Modern Celtic Culinary Highlights. Celtic food uses many types of animals, including sheep, cow, chicken, fish, pork, shellfish and lamb. Red meat is traditionally used in stews, soups and pies, such as shepherd's pie, Guinness pie and Irish stew, or as corned beef. Pork is often used for bangers (sausage). Lamb is usually grilled and served with potatoes.
  13. 13 -potatoes are the cornerstone of Celtic cuisine. They are served mashed, baked, fried, stewed and boiled. They are typically cooked with butter, oil and seasoning that comes from watery vegetables such as onions and tomatoes. Boxty is a popular Celtic dish that consists of potato pancakes, while colcannon is a combination of potatoes and cabbage.
  14. 14 -Aside from potatoes, bread is also popular in Celtic cuisine. Soda bread is perhaps the most popular type of bread. It can also be made sweet by adding dried fruits such as raisins or cranberries to the batter.  
  15. Celtic food has been around for centuries, and it has stayed true to its roots even after all these years. "Celtic" is typically a description that is applied to the Irish culture. However, it extends to Scotland as well, meaning that Celtic food is composed of both traditional Irish and Scottish dishes, such as haggis.
  16. 16- Haggis - is a large sausage made of the liver, heart, and lungs of a sheep, all chopped and mixed with beef or mutton suet and oatmeal and seasoned with onion, pepper, and other spices. The mixture is packed into a sheep`s stomach and boiled.
  17.   17- „ Address to a Haggis“ is a poem written by Robert Burns, one of Scotland’s most beloved poets. The poem is read out aloud every year around Burn’s birthday on January 25th. That day haggis is tradtionally served with mashed swede and mashed potatoes.  
  18. 18 - How to Say Goodbye in Gaelic? To say goodbye in Gaelic, you would say 'slan.' The reply would be ''slan leat.'
  19. 19 - …and remember – Whatever is happening “Keep calm and stir the pot!”
