✿ ルッセカット | Lussekatt ・スウェーデンではクリスマスシーズンにLussekatt「ルシアの猫」という名のサフランパンを食べます。1年で一番暗い時期にあたる12月13日に、光の聖人「ルシア」を祝う祭があり、聖ルシアがこのパンを配ります。 ・ ・「ルシアの猫」という名前の由来は定かではありませんが、昔のドイツでは、悪魔が配っていたパンを「悪魔の猫」と呼んでいたことから、聖ルシアが配るパンを「ルシアの猫」と呼ぶようになったとも言われています。 ・スパイスに使うサフランは、アラビア語の「黄金にする」という言葉が変化したもので、スウェーデンでは1800年代からクリスマスのスパイスとして使われてきました。そして、このサフランを使ったルッセカットは、ルシア祭とクリスマスのための特別なパンになりました。千年以上も前から、黄金色のサフランパンは不思議な力を持つと信じられ、願いを込めて様々な形に作られてきました。地方によって形が異なり、車輪や人や動物の形など、その種類は20以上もあるようです。焼いたサフランパンのいくつかは、来年の豊作を願い、種を蒔く春までとっておくことから「種蒔きのクッキー」とも呼ばれていたそうです。

Swedish saffron buns in bread maker (GF)
In Sweden we for whatever historic celebrate the day of the saint Lucia. This is typically a big deal for kids and parents. It's all about getting up early in the morning and sing for someone, bringing saffron buns and ginger bread. In Norway where I live now, we usually celebrate it in kindergarten only, and then with buns that are just dyed yellow and instead of the beautiful traditional white dress with lights in the hair someone decided that any old white garment would do. Strange. To me it's a bit like a cargo cult, they have kept just enough of a tradition to render it completely ludicrous and meaningless. But I digress. The point was that I have to have my lussekatt (Lucia cat I guess if you have to break it down), or else the pre xmas spririt will not come to me. This year I have been very busy and run down, so I needed a quick fix. All in all very happy with the recipe though off course separate buns are better :)
