Róża karnawałowa
Róża karnawałowa is a traditional Polish pastry, often served during the Carnival season. Its name translates to "Carnival Rose" in English, reflecting its festive nature and the intricate, rose-like shape of the pastry.
History[edit | edit source]
The origins of Róża karnawałowa are deeply rooted in Polish cuisine and culture. The pastry is traditionally made during the Carnival season, which in Poland starts on Epiphany (January 6) and ends on Ash Wednesday. This period, also known as Fat Thursday, is marked by feasting and merriment before the start of Lent.
Preparation[edit | edit source]
Róża karnawałowa is made from a dough similar to that used for pączki, another traditional Polish pastry. The dough is rolled out, cut into strips, and then twisted into a rose-like shape before being deep-fried. After frying, the pastry is often dusted with powdered sugar or glazed with a sweet syrup.
Cultural Significance[edit | edit source]
Róża karnawałowa is not just a pastry, but a symbol of the festive and indulgent nature of the Carnival season in Poland. It is often served at parties and gatherings during this time, and is a favorite treat among both children and adults.
