Mazurka pastry of the kingsaccording to Jane...The word mazur or mazurka has multiple meanings in Polish language. A person who lives in north-central Poland is called Mazur. A subspecies of sparrow that prefers country living, as opposed to city living, is also called mazurka. Finally, we dance the mazurka, or at least listen to it. The melody of mazurka is even mentioned in our national poem Thaddeus by Adam Mickiewicz, where Thaddeus (in a superb translation of Lech Papiez)With childs delight the string he tearsand Dabrowskis mazurek hearsHowever, at Easter time when we say mazurka we think Easter pastry. This name is used to describe a pie filled with dried fruit, preserves or almond paste.Easter is an old holiday. At the ecumenical council of Nice, in year 325 it was determined that Easter will fall on the first Sunday after the first full moon in the Spring. It means that Easter may fall between March 22 and April 25. This holiday is preceded by 40 days of Lent. There is no doubt, members of the Polish Club follow the rules of Lent strictly. Following this period we begin baking mazurkas, such as mazurka of the kings, presented here by our one and only Jane: 1 cup butter6 egg yolks1 cup sugar1/2 cup almonds (chopped fine)1 and 1/2 cups flour1/4 teaspoon saltCream butter.
