CUISINE DU MONDE
For Mardi Gras, tradition calls for festive, sweet, and indulgent recipes, often fried or very colorful.
Mardi Gras (literally “Fat Tuesday” in French) is a traditional celebration that precedes Lent, a period of fasting and penance in the Christian calendar. It takes place the day before Ash Wednesday, which marks the beginning of Lent, 46 days before Easter.
Origins:
Antiquity: The celebration has its roots in pagan spring and abundance festivals, such as the Roman Saturnalia, where people ate and feasted before periods of austerity.
Middle Ages and Christianity: The tradition was incorporated into the Christian calendar. Mardi Gras became the last day to indulge in rich foods (meat, sugar, butter) before Lent.
Carnival: In many regions, Mardi Gras is associated with Carnival, featuring parades, masks, costumes, dancing, and music.
