On the eve of the most sacred holiday - Christian Easter, most people in the circle of family and friends prepare for the celebration of this great holiday - they paint eggs, bake Easter cakes and, of course, prepare cottage cheese Easter, which, along with other attributes of the festive table, personifies the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
“Milky thickened” is another name for Easter in Church Slavonic. This name can be interpreted as follows: when Moses, at the behest of God, led the Jews from Egyptian slavery to the land where “milk and honey” flowed to continue the free race. So milk and honey became a symbol of endless joy. Cottage cheese is one of the best products that can be made from milk.
Easter, according to tradition, should be in the shape of a truncated pyramid, cooked in a wooden pasochka. According to one version, this form personifies Heavenly Zion, the unshakable foundation of the “New Jerusalem”. And this cottage cheese dish means Easter fun and the sweetness of heavenly life. And another version says that the shape of Easter repeats the shape of Mount Golgotha, on which the Son of God was crucified.
The Easter decoration must contain the letters ХВ - Christ is Risen! The sides are decorated with sprouts and flowers - a sign of the miraculous Resurrection of Jesus, as well as a Cross and a spear - a sign of the torment of Christ on Good Friday.
