Homemade cheesecakes are a particularly warm dish that evokes the most pleasant associations. Some people ask why they are called that way, because the main ingredient of the dish is not cheese, but cottage cheese. The thing is that we got the familiar name for this fermented dairy product only in the 18th century. Until this time, in Russia, cottage cheese was called just "cheese," and its products were called "cheesy" (in old books, for example, Easter is called "cheesy"). By the way, fat cottage cheese pancakes (that is, homemade cheesecakes) were cooked in our country since ancient times: for example, they were served at Shrovetide along with puffy yeast pancakes or thin pancakes.
