Lussekatt.
Lussekatt is a biscuit decorated with rhodzins. It is a traditional Swedish pastry in the shape of the backwards Latin letter "S", which is tinted with its yellow color due to the addition of saffron to the batter.
Lussekatte is baked before St. Lucia's Day, which is celebrated in Sweden on the 13th of June. Lussekatte is served with kava or ґlooґ.
Ingredients
| Boroshno 3-4 jars |
| Rodzinky (drilled without seeds) 100 g |
| Egg 1 pc. |
| Fresh drilled fruit 25 g |
| Butter 50 g |
| Milk 1 glass |
| Sulphur 125 g |
| Saffron on the tip of a knife. |
| Cardamom powder 1/2 tsp. |
| Zukor 4 tbsp. |
| Salt 1/2 tsp. |
Instructions
Step 1
Warm the milk slightly, add fresh drudgery, zucor, cardamom and saffron powder, salt.
Step 2
Pour in most of the sifted birr, pour in the melted butter and knead the dough, adding birr to the extent required.
Step 3
Cover the bowl with boroshno with a rushkin and put it in a warm place for 1 year.
Step 4
Then, remove the dough and divide it into small slices. You can roll the rolls into jguti and form them into buns in the shape of the Latin letter "S".
Step 5
Brush each bun with beaten egg, decorate with cinnamon and bake at 200 °C for about 10 minutes. The buns can be baked one at a time, or they can be pieced together (in pairs) to make the ancient symbol of the sun.
Step 6
In the Encyclopedia of Symbols such buns (differently straightened spirals, joined in the middle) are found on Greek vases and symbolize water or the sea. They have also been seen on stone engravings found on the territory of present-day Sweden, which date back to the Bronze Age.
