At Christmas in our country we traditionally make a pie with luck and everyone is excited about how lucky they will get. We also make a sweet pie, most often with pumpkin, and call it pumpkin pie.
The French also have their own pie with good luck. It is necessarily sweet and is called frangipan. This cake is a very ancient tradition with them. It dates from the distant Middle Ages, more precisely 1311. They do it there on January 6. In the Catholic faith, this is the day on which the Magi went to worship the newborn Son of God.
The tradition is to put a porcelain figurine in the pie. She is only one and the lucky one is proclaimed king. He wears a prefabricated crown. In even more ancient times, luck was a bean. However, it was truly exotic then.
The name of the cake comes from the exotic plant frangipani. This is plumeria, which was used to flavor confectionery creams. Today, vanilla has taken over its functions.
The frangipani is still popular today in France and is sold in special bags with which it can be heated in the microwave. It comes with a paper crown, which the lucky winner will wear on his head if he has the winning piece.
The frangipani it is cut into as many pieces as there are people gathered, but there is always one left, it is for God or for his mother. It is given to the first poor man who knocks on the door of the house.
An interesting moment of the holiday is for a child to hide under the table and watch how the portions are cut and distributed, because children do not know how to lie and will express any attempt at manipulation.
How to make frangipani at home? Here's one with pears.
