One of the most famous Easter foods in Portugal is folar, a bread made with eggs, sugar, flour, milk and butter, with hints of fennel and anise, and decorated with boiled eggs. In northern areas of the country, folar tends to be more savoury, with sausage and other meats inside, and it typically gets sweeter the farther south you travel. Tradition has it that, on Palm Sunday (Domingo de Ramos), godchildren bring a bouquet of violets to their godmother; on Easter Sunday, the godmother offers folar in return.
