Meanwhile, традиційного is in the masculine singular genitive form to agree with хліба (the genitive form of хліб).
Why is хліба used in the genitive case instead of the nominative or accusative?
In this context, хліба is in the genitive case because it specifies what the recipe is for, essentially meaning "recipe of traditional bread." Ukrainian often uses the genitive to indicate a relationship like possession or type, similar to using "of" in English.
