Easter 2022: Check out festive delicacies from across the world

Easter Sunday is celebrated on April 17 this year.

New Delhi: Easter Sunday is a religious Christian holiday that is observed globally to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ and while holidays like Christmas have fixed dates, the date for Easter changes from year to year. The reason for this variation is that Easter always falls on the first Sunday after the first full moon following the spring equinox.

Traditions like baking hot cross buns and filling empty eggs are symbolic of Christ's death on the cross and resurrection from the tomb.

Thus, in order to celebrate this day, people across the world indulge in a feast ranging from Kozunak to Torrijas, so here's a list of traditional Easter food from around the globe.

Spain

Torrijas are enjoyed all over Spain, and are a typical example of Easter indulgence. A variation on French toast, torrijas are slices of slightly stale bread, soaked in milk, sugar and spices overnight, then dipped in egg and fried in olive oil until crispy and golden brown.
