Easter is one of the brightest Christian holidays of the year. It is preceded by Lent, promoting the spiritual and physical cleansing of a Christian. The last day of fasting is Holy Saturday. And from midnight of the Holy Resurrection of Christ, Christians can already eat various festive dishes. But before you eat them, you need to cook them. Since the dishes are festive, they should not only be tasty, but also beautiful. Especially beautiful! “Culinary Eden” has prepared material for you about what and how to cook for Easter, how to decorate Easter dishes. I think it will be of interest not only to believers.
Kulich
Kulich, Easter, painted chicken eggs- these are, perhaps, the main edible attributes of the holiday of the Holy Resurrection of Christ.
Let's start with the familiar Easter cake. This is rich tall bread cylindrical, decorated with symbolic inscriptions, icing, poppy seeds, raisins. You can bake it yourself or buy it. Moreover, stores sell both already decorated Easter cakes and simple ones that you can decorate yourself. Easter cake recipes are on our website, so we will completely focus on decorating them.
There are several options for decorating Easter cake. Traditionally it is decorated with the letters “ХВ”. This is an abbreviation for the Easter greeting “Christ is Risen!” The letters can be laid out with pieces of finely chopped fruit, raisins, dried apricots... Candied fruits (usually flat and multi-colored) are also used for inscriptions. And the letters “ХВ” are made from dough. And when the cake is ready, sprinkle it with powdered sugar, and highlight the letters with bright sprinkles (cooking beads, for example), or chocolate.
Glaze. Decorating Easter cakes with icing is a very common way to give them a festive, beautiful view. The glaze is prepared from egg white and sugar (or powdered sugar), which are thoroughly whipped until thick foam.
Icing for Easter cake
Ingredients:
1-2 egg whites,
0.5 cups of powdered sugar,
1 tbsp. spoon of lemon juice.
Preparation
The protein must be chilled. Beat it with a mixer. Start the process at first speed and gradually increase it. You can understand that it is enough to beat by turning the bowl with the egg white upside down - the egg white should not spill out. When the required consistency is achieved, begin to gradually, teaspoon by teaspoon, add powdered sugar sifted through a sieve. Finally add lemon juice and beat for another 10 seconds. Ready glaze Apply to hot cakes - then it will fit tightly and is unlikely to crumble. Another way to add additional “strength” to the glaze is to put the cakes in the oven for a minute, heated to 100-120°C.
The icing is a wonderful decoration in itself. However, you can add (sprinkle) nuts, dried fruits, grated chocolate, multi-colored confectionery beads. Again, you can make the letters “XB” from the fruits. Or you can just write these letters with icing. There are many options. Kulich - holiday treat, so use your imagination! Often on a ready-made Easter cake to give it appetizing shine Apply the yolk and sprinkle with powdered sugar or brightly colored sprinkles. They mold the dough into a symbol of faith - a cross - and highlight it with icing. Can be used for decoration (already on top of the glaze), for example, waffle flowers, flowers from culinary mastic.
Sugar culinary mastic for flowers and other decorations
Ingredients:
250 g powdered sugar,
2 tsp gelatin powder,
6 tsp water,
1 tsp glucose.
Preparation
Sift the powdered sugar. Pour it into a bowl. Take another bowl (small) and place the gelatin in it. Sprinkle it with water and let it swell for 2-3 minutes. Then place the bowl of gelatin on water bath and dissolve it, stirring gently. Immediately after the gelatin has dissolved, pour in the glucose. The resulting liquid should be more or less transparent. Next, make a hole in the powdered sugar and pour a mixture of gelatin and glucose into it. Stir well, using a knife or chopping movements. After this, place the mastic in plastic bag, and the package into a sealed container. Leave for 3-4 hours at room temperature. After this, you can sculpt flowers and other decorations from mastic.
Here's how to make, for example, roses from mastic. To begin, use food coloring to tint the mastic pink, green, scarlet, yellow and other colors. Leave a little white mastic. Place pieces of colored mastic in a plastic bag to keep it soft and pliable. Use it in small portions.
Make a “carrot” from a small piece of mass and place it on a table or board. After this, roll balls of the same size from the colored mass - future rose petals. Mash the first ball with a teaspoon on a table dusted with powdered sugar, then use your hands to shape it into a petal. Make the petal thinner on one edge and thicker on the opposite edge. Then lightly moisten the lower part of the petal with water and wrap it around the “carrot”, thereby making the ovary of the flower. Make the next petal from the second ball. Moisten the bottom at the base of the petal again and screw it onto the workpiece so that the middle of the second petal covers the “seam” of the first petal. Glue the third petal and bend it from the middle to the side. So make 5-6 petals.
Let the finished flowers dry for 5-6 hours. The petals should be made as thin as possible towards the edges and thicker at the base! If there is excess glaze on the bottom of the flower, you can trim it off with scissors.
Then you need to prepare the leaves for the flowers. From 3-4 green balls (you can different sizes) form “carrots”. Using two thumbs, press the middle of the carrot into a leaf shape. Then use a knife in the center of the sheet, and then diagonally, apply veins. The leaf can be given any shape and bent the way you like. Dry it. When the flowers and leaves are ready, they are collected into a bouquet. Apply 2 to 3 leaves to one flower.
The cake should be served on a large plate, on which painted eggs can be placed around the perimeter (we will talk about them later). But there is another option: with fruit. To do this, cover the kiwi with chamomile, and place a mixture of nuts, prunes, fresh berries, chopped orange slices. Place a cake decorated in the same style on the resulting fruit base: fresh fruit on top of the glaze.
Another a traditional dish, which is prepared for Easter Sunday - Easter. Easter cake is often called Easter, but this is wrong. The main component of Easter is pureed cottage cheese. They add to it butter, sour cream or cream, eggs and sugar. Cottage cheese Easter traditionally made in the form of a quadrangular pyramid, which personified Golgotha - the mountain in Jerusalem where Jesus Christ was crucified. Nowadays, unfortunately, Easter is prepared much less often than, for example, Easter cakes. If you do get ready, know that you need to prepare Easter on Maundy Thursday.
Royal Easter
Ingredients:
1 kg of fresh, well-squeezed cottage cheese,
2-3 cups granulated sugar,
5 eggs
200 g butter,
2 cups sour cream,
1 packet of vanillin,
light seedless raisins, almonds to taste.
Preparation
Rub the cottage cheese and butter through a sieve, add sour cream, mix thoroughly, place the dishes on the stove and bring the mass to a boil while continuously stirring with a wooden spatula so that the mass does not burn. As soon as it boils, remove from heat and, if possible, cool quickly, also stirring continuously. Add sugar, raisins, almonds, vanillin to the cooled mass, mix everything, put it in an Easter bowl (Easter mold, sold in stores), knead the mass tightly, put a saucer on top, a small weight and put it in the refrigerator for a day.
Easter can also be decorated. Usually it already has a cross and the letters “ХВ” (depending on the form for Easter). So decorate them with candied fruits, pieces of fruit, raisins, nuts, culinary beads, chocolate chips. You can make figurines from culinary mastic corresponding to the holiday, and use waffle flowers for decoration. Easter and Easter cakes can also be decorated with red candles.
Easter eggs
The egg is a symbol of life. At Easter it is customary to paint chicken, less often goose eggs(waterfowl eggs must be boiled for at least 25 minutes due to the risk of salmonellosis). Do not paint eggs in dark gloomy colors. Red color and its shades should predominate. The red-painted egg symbolizes the rebirth of people through the blood of Jesus Christ. Painted eggs - a symbol of the holiday - give a special uniqueness Easter table.
There are several “folk” ways to color eggs. For example, in onion peels, tea, coffee, grape juice, saffron and turmeric. But in this case we are more interested in not just a painted, but a decorated egg.
IN modern conditions When every minute counts, there are several ways to quickly color eggs. For example, use thermal labels. They are sold in stores. Simply put a label on an already boiled egg and place it in a bowl with hot water. A spectacular pattern is guaranteed! There is an even simpler way - special Easter-themed stickers. They are also sold on every corner on the eve of the holiday. You can also use special food colorings. However, there is one “but” - such jewelry cannot be called original.
If the soul and faith require something more, there are other ways to decorate easter eggs. The main thing here is your own imagination. After all, an Easter egg is a gift. They exchange them, congratulating each other on the Light Christ's Resurrection. So make a gift for your loved ones and friends with your soul!
First of all, the eggs need to be boiled. Then cool them and wipe them with a cotton cloth. Gouache or acrylic paints are perfect for coloring eggs. Of course, the most relevant theme is Easter. You can paint eggs with various ornaments, colors, patterns. Write wishes to your friends and family. Let's repeat - use your imagination! When painting with gouache or acrylic paint, it is worth remembering that such eggs cannot be stored for a long time, because the dye can penetrate under the shell.
If you are not very good at drawing or simply don’t like to do it, there are other ways to decorate Easter eggs in an original way. But, by the way, even if you are not a great artist, this should not scare you. I think that your loved ones will appreciate your work and will be happy with such a gift (a painted egg), even if something is drawn crookedly somewhere.
Let's return to other possibilities. You can use rhinestones, ribbons, even feathers to decorate Easter eggs. In stores you can find various small details for decoration: bows, braid, etc. Of course, in this case you also cannot do without your own imagination.
Another wonderful one easy way coloring Easter eggs, giving them original look: plant leaves. For example, decorative rooms.
It's simple. Take the eggs. If you will get the main color using food coloring, then boil it first. If the color base is obtained using, for example, onion peels, you don’t have to boil it in advance. In any case, you will need a clean nylon stocking to implement your plan. Place an Easter egg in it, and carefully place a plant leaf on the egg. Then secure the stocking with thread so that the sheet cannot move.
Next, place all the other eggs in the stocking in the same way. As a result, you have in your hands a kind of bunch of future Easter eggs. Next, place the stocking with “semi-finished products” in a pan where it has been previously diluted food coloring or in a saucepan with onion skins. Cook a little. By the way, if you use onion peels for coloring, the decor in this case will be especially impressive. It will look very natural, natural, even environmentally friendly.
As a rule, many relatives and friends gather for the Easter table. Try to prepare an Easter gift for everyone: a beautiful egg and a small Easter cake. By the way, Easter gifts, except colored eggs and Easter cakes, can also serve various chocolate sets on Easter themes, edible figurines of chickens, cockerels, rabbits and bunnies. Happy holiday to you!
