French cheesecake with cottage cheese

Another name for this pastry is royal cheesecake. Why this recipe is popularly referred to as "French cheesecake" and what it has in common with France remains a mystery. And the cheesecake itself does not really look like the usual buns with cottage cheese. This is rather an ordinary closed cottage cheese pie made of shortbread.

One of the popular pies, a plump Russian cheesecake, always looks not only appetizing, but also sensual. Round, open at the top and pinched only from the edges, the flatbread is filled, as a rule, with cottage cheese and less often with jam or jam.

The name of this pie comes from the word "vatra" - hearth, fire, which has the same meaning in most Slavic languages: Ukrainian, Polish, Czech, Serbian, Croatian. Most likely, it is not by chance that this ancient Slavic pastry has the shape of a circle and is so similar to the sun.
Especially since a real cheesecake must necessarily be large - it was usually divided into pieces and eaten at the festive table. Cheesecakes are made from a mixture of wheat and rye flour, or most often from wheat of the highest quality. In the first case, they are usually unsweetened - a small amount of fried onions is added to the cottage cheese. In the second - sweet, they are served with tea.
Classic dough for cheesecakes - yeast, pastry or puff. In our recipe, shortbread dough is used.
