(German, Nuremberg, late 15th century) <em>Saint Elizabeth of Hungary.<\/em> 1470. Woodcut, hand-colored. 14-7\/16 x 10-9\/32 in; 15-3\/16 x 10-3\/4 in. Harris Brisbane Dick Fund, 1930. New York City, New York. The Metropolitan Museum of Art.<\/p><p>In the print, Saint Elizabeth is shown wearing a long, flowing gown. She is holding a bowl, which likely represents her charitable works and her devotion to caring for the poor and needy.<\/p><p>The woodcut print technique involves carving an image into a block of wood and then inking the block before pressing it onto paper or another material to create the image. This particular print is hand-colored, which adds depth and vibrancy to the image.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-203fdc7a\" data-id=\"203fdc7a\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1d00ea63 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1d00ea63\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"color: #4999d4;\"><strong>St. Elizabeth of Hungary &#8211; <\/strong>November 17th<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1510e987 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1510e987\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Saint Elizabeth was born a princess of Hungary. She had a storybook life with everything she could have ever wanted. At the age of 14, she was married off to a duke whom she loved with her whole heart. She became inspired by the stories of St. Francis and devoted her life to serving the poor. She gave away many of her possessions, but her husband Louis didn&#8217;t seem to mind. She was known for baking bread and secretly taking it to the poor, wrapped up in her cloak. One day, she was caught and accused of stealing from the royal treasury. Her husband, knowing it was bread, asked her to reveal her secret. As she unbundled her cloak, miraculously, the bread was transformed into red and white roses.<\/p><p>At the age of 20, her beloved husband died on the way to a crusade and left her heartbroken. She said, &#8220;He is dead. He is dead. It is to me as if the whole world died today.&#8221; After this, she devoted her life to God and took on holy vows to not remarry. She used her returned dowry to start a hospital where she attended to the needs of the poor and the sick. Today, St. Elizabeth is cherished by the Hungarians, the Germans, and the many noble families of Europe who are descended from her daughter Sophia. She is the patron saint of bakers, nurses, and hospitals.<\/p><p>For the Feast Day of Saint Elizabeth of Hungary, we are making a Hungarian sweet roll called a beigli. Beigli is a walnut roll that is a beloved treat in Hungary. It can be found in bakeries all year round, but especially during the winter season. It&#8217;s a yeasted roll, long and narrow, with a sweet filling and a crackly crust.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-b3789c7 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"b3789c7\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-57afb81\" data-id=\"57afb81\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5c4906c elementor-widget elementor-widget-wpzoom-elementor-recipe-card-widget-cpt\" data-id=\"5c4906c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"wpzoom-elementor-recipe-card-widget-cpt.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wpzoom-custom-recipe-card-post wpzoom-rcb-post-shortcode\" data-parent-id=\"7077\" data-recipe-post=\"7077\"><div id=\"wpzoom-premium-recipe-card\" class=\"wp-block-wpzoom-recipe-card-block-recipe-card header-content-align-center block-alignment-center is-style-newdesign\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"recipe-card-image\">\n\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"464\" src=\"https:\/\/cookingthechristianyear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/hungarysweetroll.jpg\" class=\"wpzoom-recipe-card-image\" alt=\"Beigli\" id=\"7078\" data-pin-media=\"http:\/\/cookingthechristianyear.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/hungarysweetroll.jpg\" data-pin-description=\"Beigli\" \/>\t\t\t\t<figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div><!-- \/.recipe-card-image -->\n\t\t<div class=\"recipe-card-heading\">\n\t\t<h2 class=\"recipe-card-title\">Beigli<\/h2>\n\t\t<div class=\"wpzoom-rating-stars-container\" data-rating=\"0.0\" data-rating-total=\"0\" data-recipe-id=\"7077\" data-user-can-rate=\"1\">\n\t\t\t\t<ul class=\"wpzoom-rating-stars\"><li class=\"wpz-empty-star wpz-star-icon\"><\/li><li class=\"wpz-empty-star wpz-star-icon\"><\/li><li class=\"wpz-empty-star wpz-star-icon\"><\/li><li class=\"wpz-empty-star wpz-star-icon\"><\/li><li class=\"wpz-empty-star wpz-star-icon\"><\/li><\/ul><span class=\"wpzoom-rating-stars-average\"><small class=\"wpzoom-rating-average\">0<\/small> <small>from<\/small> <small class=\"wpzoom-rating-total-votes\">0<\/small> <small>votes<\/small><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<em class=\"wpzoom-rating-stars-tooltip\"><\/em>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\t\t\t\t<span class=\"recipe-card-difficulty\">Difficulty: <mark>Medium<\/mark><\/span>\t<\/div><!-- \/.recipe-card-heading -->\n\n\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"recipe-card-details\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"details-items\"><div class=\"detail-item detail-item-0\"><span class=\"detail-item-icon oldicon oldicon-food\"><\/span><span class=\"detail-item-label\">Servings<\/span><p class=\"detail-item-value\">2<\/p><span class=\"detail-item-unit\">loaves<\/span><\/div><div class=\"detail-item detail-item-1\"><span class=\"detail-item-icon oldicon oldicon-clock\"><\/span><span class=\"detail-item-label\">Prep time<\/span><p class=\"detail-item-value\">40<\/p><span class=\"detail-item-unit\">minutes<\/span><\/div><div class=\"detail-item detail-item-2\"><span class=\"detail-item-icon foodicons foodicons-cooking-food-in-a-hot-casserole\"><\/span><span class=\"detail-item-label\">Cooking time<\/span><p class=\"detail-item-value\">1<\/p><span class=\"detail-item-unit\">hour&nbsp;<\/span><\/div><div class=\"detail-item detail-item-8\"><span class=\"detail-item-icon far fa-clock\"><\/span><span class=\"detail-item-label\">Total time<\/span><p class=\"detail-item-value\">4<\/p><span class=\"detail-item-unit\">hours&nbsp;<\/span><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\t<p class=\"recipe-card-summary\"><br>Beigli is a traditional Hungarian pastry, often served during Christmas and Easter, although it is also enjoyed throughout the year. It is made from a yeast dough rolled into thin sheets, then filled with a sweet filling made from ground walnuts, poppy seeds, or chestnuts. The dough is then rolled up and formed into a long cylinder and baked until golden brown. The resulting pastry is sweet, nutty, and slightly crunchy on the outside, with a soft and moist interior. Beigli is often served with coffee or tea as a dessert or snack.<\/p>\n\t\n            <div class=\"wpzoom-nosleep-toggle-container\">\n            <label class=\"switch\">\n                <input

It is made from a yeast dough rolled into thin sheets, then filled with a sweet filling made from ground walnuts, poppy seeds, or chestnuts. The dough is then rolled up and formed into a long cylinder and baked until golden brown. The resulting pastry is sweet, nutty, and slightly crunchy on the outside, with a soft and moist interior. Beigli is often served with coffee or tea as a dessert or snack.\",\"keywords\":[],\"author\":{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"name\":\"Cooking the Christian Year\"},\"datePublished\":\"2023-03-12T13:23:10+00:00\",\"prepTime\":\"PT40M\",\"cookTime\":\"PT1H\",\"totalTime\":\"PT4H\",\"recipeCategory\":[],\"recipeCuisine\":[],\"recipeYield\":[\"2\",\"2 loaves\"],\"nutrition\":{\"@type\":\"NutritionInformation\"},\"recipeIngredient\":[\"6 tablespoons water, room temperature\",\"1 1\\\/2 teaspoons instant yeast\",\"2\\\/3 cup + 1 tablespoon cake flour\",\"2 cups + 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour\",\"10 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature\",\"1\\\/2 cup + 1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar\",\"3\\\/4 teaspoon salt\",\"3\\\/4 cup breadcrumbs\",\"2 3\\\/4 cups + 2 tablespoons walnuts\",\"4 tablespoons + 1 teaspoon honey\",\"1 teaspoon cinnamon\",\"1\\\/3 cup lemon zest\",\"3\\\/4 cup + 1 tablespoon granulated sugar\",\"1\\\/3 cup + 2 tablespoons vegetable oil\",\"1\\\/4 cup raisins\",\"1\\\/3 cup water\",\"1 large egg, white and yolk separated\"],\"recipeInstructions\":[{\"@type\":\"HowToSection\",\"name\":\"Make the Dough\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"HowToStep\",\"name\":\"In a bowl, combine the water, yeast, and cake flour.
