Easter it is a festival of joy and hope for Christians; they believe that with his resurrection, Jesus overcame physical and spiritual death and brought hope for everyone, and for Christians hope for resurrection after death.

On Easter, the festive table is traditionally covered with delicacies such as ham, pirhi, horseradish and, of course, Slovenian potica, without which we cannot even imagine Easter. In Slovenia, we know more than twenty types of potica, among which the most indigenous is the walnut.

Now that you know when is easter 2021, you can slowly prepare to bake real Slovenian potica! With some courage, practice and knowledge of tricks, it is possible to bake just like our grandmothers do. All ingredients and baking tools should be heated to room temperature. Add vanilla sugar and grated organic lemon peel to the dough for a better taste. Use only egg yolks for a lighter dough, whole eggs for a thicker dough. Knead the dough carefully and do not beat it. Spread the rolled dough with the filling, the amount of which should be proportional to the thickness of the dough. Juicy raisins soaked in lemon juice can be added to the filling for a better taste. We always roll the pot using a floured tablecloth. Just before baking, coat the potica with a beaten egg, to which a spoonful or two of milk is added. Bake the potica for 40 to 50 minutes. When it is tapped and it sounds hollow, it is definitely cooked.

SOME TIPS FOR DYEING EASTER PAPERS

Before starting to paint, it is recommended that the eggs are at room temperature. It is also desirable to choose such that are white color. If you can't find them in a nearby store, you can bleach them. The eggs will color better if they are snow white.
If you are going to dye the pire with artificial dyes, it is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions, i.e. what should be the ratio between dye and water. Supposedly, you can also strengthen the dye by making it dissolve in a cup of apple cider vinegar, which will ensure that the color adheres more strongly to the eggshell.
Add to the water in which you will cook the eggs a spoonful of salt and vinegar. Leave the boiled eggs in the color for a longer time if you want richly colored pies. Turn the eggs while they soak in the dye.
