Description
Christmas tables would not be complete without poppy seed or walnut bejgli. It is often called walnut roll or poppy seed roll, both fillings are traditional and most of the time served together.
These days bakers make bejglis with new fillings, such as chestnuts, cherries, prunes or chocolate.
There is an old belief among Hungarians that poppy seeds, just like lentils, bring good luck to the house, so when consumed for Christmas or New Year’s Eve, people believed it would bring them prosperity in the new year, also, walnuts keep trouble away.
