Why Goose on St. Martin’s Day?
For centuries, the tradition of serving goose on St. Martin’s Day has been cherished in Poland and across Europe. After the autumn harvest, chilly November evenings marked a time for relaxation and reflection. Legend has it that when St. Martin tried to hide to avoid becoming a bishop, geese gave him away with their honking – and since then, these stately birds have become the stars of the table during this special time of year.
