Cheesecake in Lviv

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr 10 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   Cottage cheese and boiled potatoes need to be ground twice in a meat grinder (I used a blender to obtain a smooth, smooth consistency). Add one yolk at a time, constantly grinding. Add soft butter and sugar, constantly grinding to form a fluffy mass.

2. STEP 2

   

   Add washed and dried raisins and orange zest.

3. STEP 3

   

   Gently stir in the whipped whites into a fluffy foam.

4. STEP 4

   

   Place in an oblong mold (I used 13x22 cm, lined with baking paper. Bake for 35-40 minutes at 180*C. Cool. Remove from the mold when cold.

5. STEP 5

   

   Pour fudge on top (cook it from sugar, vinegar and water, syrup. Grind with chocolate and butter) I have fudge from half the portion.

6. STEP 6

   

   Before serving, be sure to keep the cheesecake in a cool place for at least 6-8 hours. During this time, it ripens and acquires a different structure.

vini, yes, unusual. Potatoes slightly change the traditional taste and texture. This is a proven folk technique. Potatoes can even be added to Easter cake or bread - it will become tastier and more tender, and will not go stale longer.
