The carp is kept for some more days in the bathtub until Christmas Eve, when it will be finally skinned and gutted, sliced into steaks, soaked in milk, breaded and fried and finally garnished to be served on the dinner table. As per the Slovak tradition, eating meat before Christmas Eve is kept as fast, for the Christ child. Other than carp, Slovak enjoys trout and salmons, but the whole thing about fish eating is become a standard in Slovakia, at this time. Drawing some ancient traditions, ‘Catholics and orthodox ate only fish that were salted or cooked, while the fried fish culture began from 20th century that were served with potato salad’.
