- This is the classic, widely used recipe for the glossy white icing that tops Easter kulichi for the holiday. It's very simple and easy to make, uses the most basic ingredients, and can be made even without any complicated kitchen appliances (a mixer or blender). So, to make the traditional icing for coating rich Easter kulichi, you'll first need an egg white. The leftover yolk can be used to bake the kulichi themselves. It's best to use fresh eggs, and wash them under running water before use. Put the egg white in a deep bowl and beat it with a hand whisk (you can use an ordinary table fork for this). A fluffy white foam should form on the surface of the egg white. After that, add about half of the powdered sugar called for in this recipe to the beaten egg white. Beat the mixture again with a hand whisk until the powdered sugar completely dissolves and a smooth white mixture forms. Pour a little freshly squeezed lemon juice into this white mixture and whisk again. Adding lemon juice makes the icing thicker and a richer white. Next, mix the remaining powdered sugar into the white mixture in small portions, continuing to whisk the egg-white mixture until smooth. As the powdered sugar is added, the icing will become thicker and denser. You may need a little more or a little less powdered sugar than the recipe states — it all depends on the size of the egg white and how thick you want the icing. Use the finished egg-white icing right away to coat the kulichi, since it sets very quickly. Enjoy!
