It’s Houska time.
Well, it’s almost Christmas day and I’m finally blogging on my mother-in-law’s Houska recipe. I wanted to share this recipe earlier in the month but somehow December got away from me! This recipe is originally my husband’s great grandmother’s recipe, handed down to her daughter, then to her daughter, and now to me. My husband is part Czech and grew up eating this bread on Christmas morning. My in-laws send Houska to us every year. I warm it up in the oven at 225 degrees F for 20 minutes and serve it with soft butter. I was thrilled have this recipe because this is one of the most delicious breads I have ever had. It is sweet, soft, colorful, and just bursting with flavor. You can make it any day of the year if you wish. I’m going to make it for New Year’s. Enjoy!
