Christopsomo
Christopsomo is a traditional Greek bread, often prepared during the Christmas season. Its name translates to "Christ's bread," symbolizing the birth of Jesus Christ. The bread is typically made with a rich dough that includes ingredients like flour, sugar, and spices, and is often adorned with decorative patterns or symbols.
In many Greek households, baking Christopsomo is a cherished ritual. Families may add a piece of coin inside the bread, representing good luck for the coming year. Once baked, the bread is usually blessed in a religious ceremony before being shared among family and friends during festive gatherings.
