Easter Holiday Traditions

Good Friday in Ireland
Since medieval times, all bread baked on Good Friday was marked with a cross in remembrance of Christ's crucifixion on this day. The custom survives in the Hot Cross Buns we eat in modern times.
On Easter Saturdays we eat Harring.
Easter morning: the average Easter breakfast for an Irish man consisted of six eggs. Yes, Six! They might be fried or boiled. The fast of Lent finally came to a close on Easter Saturday, so the next day was a day of feasting. Lamb, veal and chicken were part of the festive fare.
