In this thread, we are discussing only QUESTIONS OF ORGANIZATION OF THE COMPETITION!

We place the recipes presented at the COMPETITION in the topic Competition "GREAT POST" (for the best recipe for lean dishes)
What foods cannot be eaten during the fast?
What foods cannot be eaten during the fast? Great Lent is the strictest, longest and most significant of all fasts in Orthodoxy. Smoking and drinking alcohol is prohibited on these days. Also, these days, you can not eat many of the usual food products.

For a long time in Russia people observed Great Lent. Our ancestors these days canceled all the amusements and fasted, they even replaced the everyday dishes with the "sentry" made of clay. Lent is important for all believers. Lent symbolizes the forty-day fast of Jesus Christ, who soon after his baptism retired into the wilderness. The meaning of fasting is the cleansing of the soul of a person from sins and spiritual preparation for the Great Feast of Easter.

So, what cannot be eaten in Great Lent:

It is forbidden to eat any products of animal origin. This includes meat, fish, milk, dairy products (sour cream, cottage cheese, kefir, cheese, butter, yogurt, etc.) and eggs. It is also not allowed to eat mayonnaise during Lent. The exceptions are the holidays of the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary and Palm Sunday, on these days it is allowed to eat fish.

The controversial issue is about seafood (shrimp, squid, etc.), as a rule, sea reptiles are equated with fish. But the Greek statute equates seafood with mushrooms, since they have plant and animal cells. Therefore, it is allowed to eat seafood occasionally during Lent.

You should also refrain from vegetable oil, it is allowed only on Saturday, Sunday and holidays.

It is forbidden to drink alcoholic beverages during Great Lent. The exception is the holidays of Great Lent. A small amount of wine is allowed for the Triumph of Orthodoxy, the Entry of the Lord into Jerusalem, the Annunciation, name days, if someone has them on these days.

During Lent, you cannot eat rich white bread, sweet pastries made from white flour, sweets, rolls and other sweets.

The most severe days of Lent are in the first and last week. On Clean Monday, it is customary to completely abstain from eating. On Friday of the first week, it is allowed to eat only a dish called kolivo, which is boiled wheat, slightly sweetened with honey or sugar.

You need to know that there are certain indulgences for certain groups of people. This includes children, the sick, and the elderly. As a rule, for this you need to get permission from the priest, all issues related to fasting are resolved individually at confession.

As for pregnant women, it is not necessary for them to fast, fasting for pregnant women is canceled, since this can harm the health of the woman and her child.

HOW IT IS CORRECT TO DESIGN A RECIPE FOR A COMPETITION

Should the recipes be only in the profile? Just from the sections do not fit?

That is, those recipes that have already been posted on the forum before March 7 cannot be put up for the competition? And why?
Is it possible to redo everything already done again?
Admin

So we still have the whole post ahead, and everyone has a lot of recipes too.
Why take old recipes, they have already been read and prepared, let's create a new menu for ourselves and for us

I totally agree!!! there are still so many delicious treats not written / not prepared, and all hands do not reach - old, proven recipes seem to be more convenient. and here is such a wonderful incentive. I’m preparing myself seriously: I’m going to the market for groceries, I’ve already prepared a carriage and a small cart for them!
RybkA
New is, of course, good, but they do not eat new from me, they want the old, proven and for sure that they will eat to the crumb!
sweetka
I understand you very well. our godfathers are such conservatives. but it's easier for me - so as not to offend me, they still try. and sometimes they even ask for a recipe.
don't say that this is new. tell me that the old thing is so strange.
Chef
It should be placed in thematic sections.
If the dish is made by an airfryer - place it in the section "Recipes for an airfryer".
If the dish is made from cereals without - in the section of dishes from cereals.
Admin
Voting will take place in the topic COMPETITION

Vote for each recipe, but not the author, because according to the terms of the competition, each author can submit a different number of dishes to the competition (many and different!).

Winner of competition - the dish that received the most votes.

Is it possible to use lean mayonnaise when preparing a dish for the competition?
If it does not contain animal components - why not? You just need to pay attention to the ingredients of such mayonnaise in the recipe description.
Natalia Polt
Baker, thanks for your answer.
We sell it in the store, right on the label in large letters and it says: "Lenten mayonnaise"

Questions about organizing the competition
Admin

Dear Contestants!

In paragraph 6. of the Rules for the Contest "Great Lent" it is written as follows: "The dish should not contain meat, dairy, egg, fish and other non-lean ingredients. "

Despite the fact that there are several fish days in the calendar of Great Lent, the administration of the forum decided not to amend the rules of the Competition, and not to admit to the competition fish dishes.

Fish dishes already submitted to the competition will be removed.
Chef
Quite right, and we will make a competition with fish dishes in another, softer post.
SBV
Admin, please tell me how the winner of the competition is determined by voting or by the general sponsor. You have written one thing here, but another in the competition section?
Admin
In the topic "Competition" GREAT POST "(for the best recipe for lean dishes)" it is written as follows:
1. The winners are determined by the general sponsor the organizer of the competition is Cuckoo Electronics Russia and a professional jury.

The preliminary results are summed up and announced in the Competition topic - then the SPONSOR will think over the recipes, the results will appear on May 1 in the Competition topic.

I sort of tweaked the conditions everywhere so that the text was the same, apparently not everywhere

I checked: the texts of the conditions are the same everywhere!
If you notice any inaccuracies, please give a link to the post and text, make corrections and clarifications
Admin

The winner of the competition is the dish that received the most votes.
- only the number of votes will be determined by the SPONSOR himself!

We sit and wait! As soon as the result is ready, we will immediately give information in the COMPETITION section!
