Growing community gives Hispanic flavor to Easter. Michigan
Tagged: Ecuador, population“For Sara Calupina, Holy Week actually begins the week before, when she begins preparing fanesca, an Ecuadorian soup traditionally eaten on Good Friday.
Each day, Calupina boils a different ingredient: first lupini beans, then lentils, white corn, hominy, whole peas, red kidney beans, broad beans, navy beans and lentils. She’ll also soak a pot of bacalao – salted cod – to get rid of much of the salt.
Calupina and her husband Patricio belong to the area’s Hispanic community, a small but growing population that celebrates the same Christian holidays as many Anglos, albeit differently and, in some cases, more dramatically.”
