Easter Cookbooks and Recipes
Easter is the Christian religious festival that marks the crucification and resurrection
of Jesus. It is observed by Christians around the world, but for many people is also a secular
holiday.
The date of Easter moves from year to year (and differs between Western and Eastern
Christianity) because it is calculated according to a complex formula related to
the Jewish Passover, and the Jewish is based on lunar rather than solar cycles.
There are many recipes, dishes, and traditions associated with Easter.
Here are some Easter recipes:
- Figolla - This is a famous Maltese recipe.
It is a biscuit, coated with icing, and stuffed with sweet ground almonds. It
usually made into shapes such as a fish, a lamb, a heart, etc.
- Paska - This is a famous Ukrainian recipe
for sweet bread. It is made from a containing butter, eggs and sugar
as well as flour, and is glazed with egg and water. The inside of the bread is yellow and white,
the yellow is said to represent Christ, and the white to represent the Holy Spirit.
Amish cuisine contains a similar recipe, also eaten at Easter,
and also known as "paska".
- Sarmale - This is a Romanian recipe for
cabbage rolls. The rolls are stuffed with ground meat, rice, and onions.
Sarmale are eaten at Easter and on
Christmas Eve
Serbian cuisine has a similar dish, which is known
as Sarma, and is also eaten at Easter and
Christmas Eve.
- Sarmale - This is a Romanian recipe for
cabbage rools. The rolls are stuffed with ground meat, rice and onions,
and are often eaten at Easter, as well as on

Click Here | Product Description:
In old Ukraine, cuisine was a highly developed art form. Traditional cookery, here evoked in a comprehensive and well-researched assortment of menus and recipes, reflected the productivity of a rich farming and sheepraising region, celebrated the festivals in the church calendar, and marked important family milestones?births, christenings, name days, betrothals, weddings, and commemorations of the dead. In addition to precise instructions designed for the modern kitchen, thirty-eight drawings illustrate the correct technique for filling dumplings and cabbage rolls and the artistry involved in baking the famous Ukrainian Easter paska and fancifully embellished wedding breads. An authoritative reference section and note on sources will be an aid to scholars and all concerned with the preservation of Ukrainian culture. Far more than a cookbook, festive Ukrainian Cooking is also a definitive account of traditional Ukrainian culture as perpetuated in family rituals and lovingly celebrated with elegantly prepared food and drink. Working from original sources in Ukrainian, Russian, and Polish, and drawing on long experience as an accomplished cook herself, Marta Pisetska Parley arranges these recipes as they were enjoyed throughout the year, beginning with the Christmas season and ending with succulent dishes made with wild mushrooms gathered in the fall. Chapter introductions describe the folkways associated with major holidays and family events and the symbolic and celebratory role of food appropriate to each. Devotees of ethnic cuisine, experienced cooks and beginners alike, will find much to choose from in this authoritative collection that encompasses the best of a rich, varied, and healthful culinary tradition. |

Click Here | Product Description: This eBook consists of over 70 pages of great recipes just in time for Easter...or anytime. Below is just 1 example of what you will find inside this eBook:
BRAIDED EASTER BREAD 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, divided 1/4 cup white sugar 1 teaspoon salt 1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast 2/3 cup milk 2 tablespoons butter 2 eggs 5 whole eggs, dyed if desired 2 tablespoons butter, melted In a large bowl, combine 1 cup flour, sugar, salt and yeast; stir well. Combine milk and butter in a small saucepan; heat until milk is warm and butter is softened but not melted. Gradually add the milk and butter to the flour mixture; stirring constantly. Add two eggs and 1/2 cup flour; beat well. Add the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes. Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour. Deflate the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into two equal size rounds; cover and let rest for 10 minutes. Roll each round into a long roll about 36 inches long and 1 1/2 inches thick. Using the two long pieces of dough, form a loosely braided ring, leaving spaces for the five colored eggs. Seal the ends of the ring together and use your fingers to slide the eggs between the braids of dough. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place loaf on a buttered baking sheet and cover loosely with a damp towel. Place loaf in a warm place and let rise until doubled in bulk, about 45 minutes. Brush risen loaf with melted butter. Bake in preheated oven for 50 to 55 minutes, or until golden. Makes 1 – 1 pound loaf. |
