Easter, along with Easter cakes, is decorated with a festive table on Bright Sunday. Of course, this treat can be purchased at any store. But cooking your own Easter is much more interesting. In order to comprehend the art of making Easter, you will need a proven recipe and a form for it. Consider what a product is, what forms are made for Easter, how to use them.
Appearance and design of the product
All forms for this treat are a truncated 4-sided pyramid, imitating Mount Calvary, on which Jesus Christ was crucified. Many people refute this version and claim that Easter is performed in the form of the Holy Sepulcher. Probably, a reliable explanation is quite difficult to find.
The form for Easter is 4 facets with inscriptions that are fastened in one way or another to each other. The simplest options are simply taped or erased.
The shape is characterized by holes from the bottom and internal grooves, as the cottage cheese, in order to produce a product, must give off excess liquid in order for Easter to be as dense as possible. On the side and on top of the form there are necessarily embossed patterns and letters "XB". remember, that the deeper the pattern is cut inside, the clearer it is subsequently imprinted on the curd mass.
So that the mixture for Easter does not stick to the inner surface of the mold, it is covered with one layer of wet gauze. After Easter is ready, you can easily get it without spoiling the shape and patterns.
From what only do not make forms for Easter. Even an old metal grater is used by economical hostesses. You can make a form yourself, for example, from thick cardboard, covered with food film, or from wood. Making your own hands will take time and drawings, as well as tools (for example, jigsaw and drill for working with wood). It is much easier to buy a passover box in a store or church shop right on the eve of a bright holiday. Finished products from the most different materials are on sale, and we will describe the main of them.
Wooden forms
Traditional Easter cake mold is made of wood. In the old days they used only such material. It allows Easter to "breathe" and not retain excess fluid.
A wooden bread bowl is good for everyone: durable, beautiful, convenient to use. Dropping such a "dish", you can not worry about chips and cracks - they will not. Usually made of alder, therefore, has a velvety structure. The only negative is the high price for products made from other materials. But according to family tradition, such a holiday decoration can be inherited, and it will keep the memory of many bright joint holidays.
When choosing a product, pay attention to the cleanliness of processing: all parts must be carefully sanded. Painted wooden boxes made of wood or varnished are completely unacceptable.
Silicone Products
For the preparation of Easter often use silicone pasochnitsy. The fact is that Treats can be prepared in two ways: cold and hot. And the second method involves heating the form with the mixture in the oven. And in this case, you will need a product that can be exposed to high temperatures - that is, silicone.
From such dishes Easter comes easily. Silicone mold is easy to wash and store, it is practically not subject to damage and is very light. It is not so expensive compared to the wooden counterpart.
Of the obvious disadvantages can be called softness: it does not hold the shape, and Easter during the cooking process can easily be deformed. Silicone may darken over time, which will spoil the appearance of the bowl.
And also you should pay attention to the choice of the product. It is better to choose a high-quality brand thing than to take a cheap copy from silicone. It can emit an unpleasant smell of toxic plastic, and during operation (especially when it is heated) harmful substances can get directly into the food. You should not save on your health, therefore you should not even look at too cheap and suspicious forms.
Plastic bowl
A lot of kitchen utensils, including forms for Easter, are made of safe food plastic. Convenience when using this product does not take: easy, great washes, keeps its shape. However, you can’t cook a cooked Easter in the oven, of course, in a plastic mold.
Plastic is very cheap, but breaking it is also a frequent occurrence in the kitchen. Any blow or fall can cause cracks and chips. When choosing, it is worthwhile to give preference to the middle and highest price category of the forms, since the cheapest forms may be unsafe for use. In addition, bright colored cheap pasochnitsy can paint your cottage cheese dessert, making it poisonous. It is better to choose neutral white or beige tones.
Choose a passover box to your liking, because Easter, made with love, will delight your loved ones and friends. Try to choose only quality products, proven recipes and do not be upset if something went wrong.
