Hi friends! The Jewish festival of
Passover is here. Its time for the Seder, the Jewish culinary ritual. Seder is an integral part of Passover and has
symbolic significance that dates back to the time of the
great Passover itself. The Passover seder plate consists of six items:
- Chazeret: Bitter herbs. These remind them of the bitter experiences of slavery.
- Charoset : Made from grated apples, chopped walnuts, red wine and cinnamon. These signify the mortar used by Egyptians for constructions where the Israelites had to undergo suffering.
- Karpas: Parsley. This is dipped in salt water to pay respect to the tears shed by the Israelites in slavery.
- Z'roa: Roasted shank-bone. Symbolic of the lamb sacrificed on the night of Passover.
- Beitzah: Roasted egg. This is the symbol of spring and regeneration.
These make up the Passover seder meal.
