CHRISTMAS RECIPES - GINGER COOKIES - VIDEO
Latvians have many distinct dishes but a very popular one to bake at Christmas is Piparkukas. These gingerbread cookies are more soft, nicely spiced and so delicious. Christmas in Latvia cannot be imagined without baking tray upon tray of gingerbread (piparkūkas). It is a national pastime in the days leading up to Christmas. This is a wonderful Christmas cookie which my family prepare every year.
