Moscow's top dietitian shares smarter ways to enjoy Easter kulich
Moscow’s chief dietitian, Antonina Starodubova, has offered tips on enjoying kulich in a healthier way. The traditional sweet Easter bread is a festive favourite, but its rich ingredients call for mindful eating. Her advice focuses on portion control and preparation timing to avoid discomfort. Kulich is a celebratory bread packed with premium flour, butter, eggs, and sugar. Many versions also include raisins, candied fruit, and a sugary glaze. While delicious, its richness can lead to digestive issues if eaten in large amounts.
Starodubova recommends eating it in small servings of 100 to 150 grams. She also suggests baking it a day in advance, as slightly stale *kulich* is gentler on the stomach. Freshly baked bread, she notes, can be harder to digest. Her main message is balance. Enjoying the treat in moderation helps prevent overindulgence while keeping the Easter tradition alive.
The guidance aims to help people savour kulich without health drawbacks. By watching portion sizes and letting the bread rest before eating, the risks of digestive problems decrease. Starodubova’s tips provide a practical way to enjoy the holiday staple responsibly.
