Good Friday Hot Cross Buns<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

This year, Good Friday is on Friday 3rd of April, and the day we eat Hot Cross Buns. The Hot Cross Bun is a simpler sort of bun than the Chelsea Bun, which was the bun to have at Easter in London in the 18th Century. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hot Cross Buns Good Friday Traditions<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There seem to be all sorts of dubious traditions around the origins of the Hot Cross Bun. It has been suggested that the Greeks knew how to put a cross on a bun. Also, that the Anglo-Saxons celebrated the Goddess Eostre with the crossed bun. It is suggested that the cross represents, not the cross, but the four quarters of the moon, the four seasons and the Wheel of the Yea<\/a>r. But there is very little evidence for Eostre other than the Venerable Bede’<\/a>s mentioning her name. Bede says: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

‘\u2018Eosturmonath has a name which is now translated \u2018Paschal month\u2019, and which was once called after a goddess of [the English people] named Eostre, in whose honour feasts were celebrated in that month’<\/em> (quoted from florencehrs.substack.com\/p\/eostre-pagan-fertility-goddess)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

So nothing is known about Eostra herself nor her rituals and customs. So her association with Hot Cross Buns cannot be known. However, the cross, and the association with Easter, makes the bun powerful, so there are many superstitions on record. A piece of an Easter Hot Cross Bun given to the sick may promote a cure. It was said that a bun cooked and served at Easter will not go off for a year. This might help explain the traditions that hanging them up on a string or ribbon is a good thing. One hung in a kitchen prevents fire. On a ship prevents sinking. In East London, the Widow\u2019s Son Pub in East London has an old bun. This remembers a sailor-son who never returned to eat it on Good Friday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Making and Eating Hot Cross Buns<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The technology of putting a cross on a Bun requires nothing more complicated than a flour and water paste so it might well be an ancient tradition. A more impressive cross can be made with shortcrust pastry. The bun itself is simply flour, milk, butter, egg, salt, spices and mixed fruit. Here is a recipe from the BBC www.bbcgoodfood.com <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In my opinion, they need to be purchased from a shop. Home-made Hot Cross Bun might be better but would be strangely disappointing. It’s normally eaten toasted and buttered although I prefer the soft doughy untoasted and unbuttered bun. But then I can get carried away and eat the entire pack of four.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Good Friday Chelsea Bun<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Old
Old Chelsea Bun House Frederick Napoleon Shepherd<\/a> – from a print at the Museum of London<\/a> (Wikipedia)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

‘RRRRRare Chelsea Buns’ as Jonathan Swift called them in a letter to Stella in 1711.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Fragrant as honey and sweeter in taste
As flaky and white as if baked by the light
As the flesh of an infant soft, doughy and slight. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The buns were made from eggs, butter, sugar, lemon and spices. The tradition was that, on Good Friday, 18th and 19th Century Londoners would go to Chelsea to buy Chelsea Buns. Thousands of people would turn up at the Five Fields. These stretched from Belgravia to what is now Royal Hospital Street. There were swings, drinking booths, nine pins and ‘vicious events that disgraced the metropolis’. The Bun House was on Jew’s Row as Royal Hospital Street was then called. As several King Georges visited the Bun House it became known as the Royal Chelsea Bun House. It was run by the Hands family. They were said to sell 50,000 Buns on the day. Stromboli tea garden was nearby.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chelsea Cabinets of Curiosity<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Inside the Chelsea Bun House was a collection of curiosities. Chelsea became known for its collection of curiosities in the 18th Century. Of course, there was the great Hans Sloane’s collection which was the founding collection of the British Museum. And then there was Don Saltero’s which was a coffee house that had curiosities on the wall. The Bun House displayed clocks, curiosities, models, paintings, and statues on display to attract a discerning Public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Find me a Chelsea Bun! (Or make one yourself!)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Me. I love a Chelsea Bun above all buns, But can you get them any more? The British Library Cafe was the last place I found that sold them. And that was 7 years ago. I did Chelsea Buns on sale in the Empire Cafe in Newbury but apart from that nada. Their place has been taken first by Danish Pastries and more recently the ubiquitous Cinnamon Bun. If you see any Chelsea Buns on sale please let me know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Long Rope Day<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There is a tradition of Skipping on Good Friday. I can’t say I ever saw it – in my school skipping was a perennial activity, mostly enjoyed by the girls, but the boys would sometimes be intrigued enough to join in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is a great article about Long Rope Day in the Guardian with a wonderful picture of a collective skip. Find it here! https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/culture\/2023\/apr\/06\/english-heritage-tradition-skipping-aeaster<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
