Article Excerpts
- German Easter Parties and Food
|  |
|
One of the most important holidays in Germany is Easter. The word for Easter in German is Ostern. Most families celebrate Easter with German decorations (ornaments and figurines), children’s games, and best of all, food. German families throw large parties filled with celebration, food, and other family members. The special meals begin on Thursday. In German this Thursday is called Gründonnerstag. On this day, green food is eaten. For example: soups with certain green vegetables and spinach, among many others. Friday, Karfreitag, the families eat fish for dinner. It may serve as a reminder of Jesus and his disciples and their fish catching. Saturday is a day set for relaxation and for preparing the next day's meal. No special meals are served on this day. Easter Sunday is the last day for the celebrations. The family serves lamb for dinner. Afterwards, the family eats cake that was baked in a lamb-shaped cake mold. Knowing all this, you can now throw an Easter Sunday party.
