Osso bucco on Xmas Eve....do you not respect the virgin Mary and know she didn't like the smell of cooking meat hence we cook fish on the eves...
Maybe also something about fish in Friday, then rabbit is fish and so is puffin.
This is Roman Catholic wierdness, tho the smell of cooking meat is probably local woo.

My partner is half polish, my mum is from a good Catholic family, so I know all about the carps in bathtubs, and had to endure funny fish stuff with mango cooked days in advance and whatnot from the polish grandmother. But didn't know I was offending Maria, so might do fish sticks next year.
Roman Catholics/Christmas traditions really not our thing.

Good work on the puffy things, my mum used to make them, will have to do one day.
Here it's simple stuff, Osso Bucco alla Milanese with Bramata.
