Pashka 2 Preparation
Cream the butter, add the sugar gradually, and beat until light and fluffy. Push the ricotta cheese and egg yolks through a fine sieve. Add to the creamed mixture with lemon rind, beating until thoroughly combined. Add currants, mixed peel and almonds, and lastly, fold in the whipped cream. If the mixture is very soft, chill until it is firm enough to shape. Pile the mixture on a serving plate and shape into a pyramid, using a broadknife or spatula. Decorate with glace fruits and mixed peel. Chill. NOTE: In Russia the letters XB, meaning Christ is risen, are outlined in mixed peel on one side of the pashka, and a cross on the other. NOTES : Pashka means Easter in Russian, and this is one of the traditional delights of the Russian Easter table. Serve it thickly spread on slices of fruit bread, or enjoy it for dessert with a cup of strong black coffee and a crisp biscuit.
