If you also fast, then I suggest you look here. Delicious salads, main courses and desserts will delight both fasting people and people who are on a diet.

It is known that Lent ends with a huge holiday - the Resurrection of Christ or, otherwise called, Easter. Traditionally, on the eve of the holiday they paint chicken eggs, bake Easter cakes and pies and make Easter cottage cheese.

How to beautifully color eggs and bake them delicious Easter cakes We'll find out soon, but today I'll focus on a delicious cottage cheese dish. There are a lot of variations and there is plenty to choose from to suit your taste. They prepare delicious treats from cottage cheese with the addition of candied fruits, raisins, and poppy seeds. You also need a form. Ordinary glass bowls can serve, but much more Easter is more interesting looks cone-shaped.

They help give it this shape special molds- beekeepers. They can be inexpensive plastic or more expensive ones made of wood. The walls are usually decorated with beautiful ornaments and the letters ХВ - Christ is Risen.

That's all the simple tips you need when preparing a delicious dish for the holiday table. Many housewives know classic recipes, but it’s worth taking a closer look at many other very tasty options and adding them to your piggy bank.

Classic made from cottage cheese with raisins and cognac

Dense and tasty classic easter everyone will like it without exception. It is important to strictly follow the recipes of the products and not to overdo it with orange zest. Otherwise it may taste somewhat bitter.

Required ingredients:

  • Cottage cheese 9-18% fat - 850 grams;
  • Butter - 180 grams;
  • Raisins - 100 grams;
  • Sugar - 150 grams;
  • Ground cardamom - 1 teaspoon;

2. Peel the raisins from the branches and rinse thoroughly with water. Dry it in a towel and pour it into a small bowl. Pour it with 3 tablespoons of cognac and leave it to steep for about 60 minutes.

If desired, you can add less cognac or omit it altogether. This way, even children can eat the delicious food.

3. So, the raisins are infused. During this time, the butter will soften so that it can be easily whipped.

4. Grind the cottage cheese through a sieve into a bowl. How fattier cottage cheese, the faster and easier it is to grind it. You can, of course, not grind it, but this way we won’t get a more delicate and soft taste.

The Easter dish is originally made in the form of a pyramid without a roof. So it symbolizes the Holy Sepulcher. On the sides of the pasochnitsa there are symbols, in addition to the HV (Christ is Risen), a cross, spears, sprouts and sometimes a dove. All this signifies the suffering and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

5. Then grate the zest from the orange. Here you only need to remove the top orange layer from the peel of the fruit. We do not put more than one teaspoon in the dish. We send the zest to the cottage cheese.

Step-by-step preparation of amazingly delicious royal Easter

The name Tsar's Paska came from the fact that many ingredients go into its recipe. These are primarily nuts, dried fruits and candied fruits. In the recent past in Rus' only the nobility could afford such a dish.

But the years go by, times change, and such a dish no longer seems like a very expensive dessert on our tables. And its preparation with the advent of electric kitchen appliances significantly simplified.

With a little imagination, you can add candied fruits to the main mass, chocolate drops, raisins, almond petals.

Allow 1.5-2 days for preparation in order to be in time for the holiday table. The dish should stand well under pressure.

  • Candied fruits - 50 grams;
  • Vanilla sugar - 1 teaspoon.

3. Three cottage cheese through a sieve into a deep bowl. The fattier the product, the easier it will be to pass through a sieve.

4. Add softened butter and full-fat sour cream to the curd.

5. Separate the yolks from the whites and place in a bowl. Add granulated sugar and vanillin here. Mix everything well. For convenience, I recommend using a spatula with a rubber tip. It will mix everything wonderfully and help remove all the mass from the walls.

6. Transfer to a saucepan with a thick bottom and set to cook. It is very important not to boil here. We just need to wait for the first bubbles and immediately remove from heat. Stir continuously with a spoon.

7. Cool the hot mass in an ice bath. To do this, simply lower the saucepan into cold water and stir.

Make sure that water does not get into the saucepan.

8. Right before your eyes, it will immediately become thick, as it should be. Throw in nuts, candied fruits and raisins.

9. Place the bean pot with its wide neck on top and on a deep plate.

10. Line the mold with wet, clean gauze. Now dump the contents of the saucepan into the pan.

11. We bend the edges of the gauze inward. On top we place a weight from a saucer and a heavy jar with something, for example, just water.

12. We put the yummy food in a dark place for 1-1.5 days. During this time, the dish will settle, become denser, and all the water will go into the deep plate below.

13. Free the finished paska from oppression and open the ends of the gauze at the bottom. Carefully transfer to a large flat plate and remove the mold and gauze.

14. The dessert can be decorated with candied fruits, glazed beads and served.

Happy upcoming Bright Orthodox Easter and the Resurrection of Christ!

Besides the decorated sugar sprinkles Easter cake and colorful eggs On the festive table they always put Easter - an airy dish made from cottage cheese.

Easter can be sweet and salty, raw and boiled. Unlike usual curd desserts Easter is an expensive dish. Only products suitable for its preparation are: top quality, and they are needed in large quantities.

You also need to be patient, because Easter is made slowly, adhering to the requirements specified in the recipe.

Subtleties of cooking

  • Before you start preparing Easter, you need to purchase a bean box - a collapsible form consisting of four planks that are fastened together. You can also buy a plastic bean bag in stores. When assembled, the paska molds resemble a truncated pyramid.
  • Easter can also be done on regular saucepan. But in this case, you will need to drain the serum that has come to the surface several times. You can also use a new... flower pot. It is lined with a thin cloth, filled with curd mass and placed on a saucepan into which the released whey will be drained.
  • For Easter you need to take only the most good cottage cheese. It should be soft, homogeneous, dry. To get rid of excess moisture, it is placed under pressure before use.
  • Cottage cheese for Easter is rubbed through a sieve twice. Those housewives who grind it through a meat grinder do the wrong thing. The cottage cheese passed through a sieve is airy and soft. And cottage cheese, crushed in a meat grinder, turns out crumpled and viscous. Of course, you can make Easter from it, but its quality will be much worse.
  • The eggs must be fresh, as some Easter recipes call for them raw. Before use they must be washed in warm water so that the dangerous pathogenic microorganism - salmonella - does not get into the dish.
  • If the recipe calls for cream, it should be 33 percent fat so that it whips well. Cream with a lower fat content can be used if it does not need to be whipped during the cooking process.
  • Butter in Easter should only be real butter, not a spread.
  • At Easter they put candied fruits, raisins, nuts, and zest. It is flavored with vanilla, cinnamon, cardamom, and star anise. Spices must be thoroughly crushed and sifted through a sieve.
  • All recipes indicate large proportions, since the pasta box must be filled to the top with curd mass.
