In Hungary, 20 August is the feast of St Stephen, the founder of our state, and the end of the harvest and the new bread. According to tradition, the first loaf of bread made from new wheat was baked on St Stephen's Day after the harvest. Since the first baking of new wheat was in August, this month is also known as the month of new bread.
