Brabantian Worstenbroodje
Brabantian worstenbrood is a typical savoury pastry snack from the Dutch province of North-Brabant. The loaf is about six inches long and is filled with a minced beef sausage. In contrast to the " saucijzenbrood", the Brabantian worstenbrood is not made from puff pastry, but made from soft white bread dough. The worstenbrood originated as a way of preserving the meat by rolling it in dough and baking it. Traditionally it was mainly eaten during Christmas (especially after Midnight Mass) and Carnival. The snack is often served on terraces and cafes in the south of the country. It is also sold in other Dutch provinces, but mainly at supermarkets. Since 1997, a competition is organized annually to select the best 'Brabantian worstenbrood baker'. It is broadcast on Dutch TV. In March 2016, the Brabantian worstenbrood was included in the list of intangible heritage An intangible cultural heritage (ICH) is a practice, representation, expression, knowledge, or skill considered b ...

Sausage Roll
A sausage roll is a savoury pastry snack, popular in current and former Commonwealth nations, consisting of sausage meat wrapped in puffed pastry. Sausage rolls are sold at retail outlets and are also available from bakeries as a take-away food. A miniature version can be served as buffet or party food. Composition The basic composition of a sausage roll is sheets of puff pastry formed into tubes around sausage meat and glazed with egg or milk before being baked. They can be served either hot or cold. In the 19th century, they were made using shortcrust pastry instead of puff pastry. A vegetarian or vegan approximation of a sausage roll can be made in the same manner, using a meat substitute.

Midnight Mass
In many Western Christian traditions Midnight Mass is the first liturgy of Christmastide that is celebrated on the night of Christmas Eve, traditionally beginning at midnight when Christmas Eve gives way to Christmas Day. This popular Christmas custom is a jubilant celebration of the Mass or Service of Worship in honour of the Nativity of Jesus; even many of those Christian denominations that do not regularly employ the word "Mass" uniquely use the term "Midnight Mass" for their Christmas Eve liturgy as it includes the celebration of Holy Communion. History The tradition of a midnight Vigil on the eve of Christmas began in the East, and was observed in the late fourth century in Jerusalem by a Christian woman named Egeria on the night of January 5. The tradition reached the Western world in the year 430 under Pope Sixtus III in the Basilica of St Mary Major. By the twelfth century, the practice of midnight Mass had become more widespread as all priests had been granted the facu ...
