The religious significance of Easter
Easter is a day of rejoicing for Christians as it commemorates the resurrection of Christ. The word “Passover” comes from “Pesach”, the word for the Jewish Passover that celebrates the coming of the Israelites out of Egypt. Indeed, the passion of Christ took place during the feasts of Passover, which Jesus celebrated as a Jew. Certain symbols are common to both festivals, such as the paschal lamb, unleavened bread and the egg.
Traditionally, this period is favourable for baptisms. The Church also considers that Christians should take communion at least once a year, at Easter time. Hence the expression “to make one’s Easter”, which means to confess and take communion during the Easter period.
Easter traditions
The egg, symbol of life :
Long before the Christian era, the egg was already full of meaning and the custom of offering eggs to each other in the spring therefore predates Easter. The egg symbolises the promise of life and has therefore always been considered a good omen. When the egg was associated with the feast of Easter, the connection between the promise of life represented by the egg and the resurrection of Christ was obvious. Moreover, the beautiful shape of the egg makes it a symbol of perfection.
Hares and Easter bells
Nowadays, it is easier to offer a chocolate egg than a decorated egg, to the delight of children and gourmets alike.
Chocolate sweets can also take the form of bells and rabbits. Legend has it that on Easter Sunday the church bells, which have remained silent since Maundy Thursday, return from their pilgrimage to Rome and pour chocolate sweets onto the gardens. It is also said, in Germany and Alsace, that it is the hares that bring these sweets and hide them in the garden. The children make pretty nests filled with moss which they set up in the garden on Easter Eve to encourage the Easter hares to fill them with eggs.
Easter Egg Hunt for Kids
If you have children around you, prepare an egg hunt for them in your garden or apartment. You will have taken care to hide the sweets on Easter eve, so that you can give them a small basket when they jump out of bed. For a successful egg hunt, consider multiplying the number of small-sized treats to make the search more interesting and longer. And for once, allow the children to eat chocolate for breakfast, they will be delighted!
Easter table
The Easter meal usually brings the family together for an exceptional meal. For the decoration of the table, a springtime atmosphere is easy to achieve with natural materials: young branches, first flowers, moss … Easter symbols can be added, with empty and painted hen eggs, candles in the shape of a hen or a bell, small nests of branches filled with sugar eggs.
For your dessert, we suggest you opt for a light and delicious cake that the Orthodox prepare for Easter, called Paskha, and whose recipe is as follows.
Easter Lamb
The traditional Easter meal always features lamb, which is usually eaten as a superb leg of lamb with white beans.
The leg of lamb can be cooked in various ways: in a salt crust, roasted in a thyme or rosemary juice… You will discover our recipes in the article on the choice and cooking of lamb. It is not by chance that lamb is the meat par excellence of the Easter menu, because lamb, by its innocence and obedience, reminds us of Christ’s sacrifice. Moreover, it is at this season that lamb is available and tasty. The end of the end being the salt meadow lamb, with its inimitable flavour.
