Pantāga

Pantāga is a cherished Latvian dish made from eggs and spices, deeply rooted in tradition and symbolism. Often seen as a representation of the sun, it is a staple during Easter celebrations.

Traditionally, this dish is cooked over an open flame, usually outdoors, using a round, long-handled cast iron pan. The preparation involves whisking together egg whites and yolks with a blend of spices to create a delicious scrambled egg dish. While the classic method relies on an open fire, you can also prepare Pantāga in a microwave for a quicker, modern twist.

Whether you adhere to the traditional method or opt for the convenience of a microwave, Pantāga remains a delightful and meaningful part of Latvian cuisine.
