On the Saturday before the church holiday of the Feast of St. Archangel Michael (Archangelov’s Day) – November 8, a stew is celebrated, also known as “Archangel’s stew”, “Rangel’s stew”, “Hrangelovo doushe”, “big stew”, “man’s stew” .

It is the last of the three great feasts that Orthodox Christians celebrate every year. On Archangel Stew, as on any other commemoration, wheat, bread, wine, sweets, candies, fruit and other foods are distributed. Apart from the relatives, it is also given to the people around the neighboring graves, even if they are strangers, writes BTA. On this day, the commemoration that is made is also a commemoration of the living for the deceased, that he is not forgotten. On Archangel Stew, honor is paid to the memory of the officers and soldiers who died for Bulgaria, and to all those who fell in the ranks of the Bulgarian Army.
