A simple recipe made from available ingredients, and what a story! Get ready! Kalitki is a dish of Karelian cuisine. And so someone associates their name with “open the gate slowly,” because they don’t know where it comes from. Others say that the name comes from the word “kalita” (in modern times, carols), when on the night before Christmas they knocked on the gates, sang songs and asked for gifts. They also say that in some dialect there is a word for wallet, which sounds like “kalita”... But the Karelian housewives themselves say that the name of this pastry comes from the word Fish (in Karelian kale or kala) - wickets look like fish. Nowadays they are sometimes made round, but previously they were only in the shape of an ellipse with sharp corners - why not a fish?!
