Since the 1990s, this practice has undergone a number of changes and now fulfils a variety of functions – from everyday food security and small gifts for friends or family to a key role in the church year, feast days, and the Bulgarian culinary culture. Sometimes home preserving simply expresses the desire for continuity of flavours.
