Now all those who appreciate elastic berries in jam, who prefer to remove the foam during cooking, who cannot live a day without a couple of spoons of fragrant raspberry jam, can officially uncork the jars stored for the winter and try the viscous sweetness.

A few words about the history of Raspberry Jam Day

The official appearance of the holiday dates back to 2015. The initiator of the emergence was the popular online culinary community Daily-menu.ru, which decided to renew the old Slavic tradition.

In ancient times, it was customary in Rus' to celebrate Raspberry Day. The holiday was then called Raspberry, and noisy festivities in honor of the sweet berry were held just in mid-August. In those days, they praised not so much raspberry jam as the berry itself, which was one of the symbols of the fertility of the Russian land.

The healing properties of raspberries were elevated to the rank of a panacea. Taking berries inside, the Slavs were cured of a variety of ailments: colds, coughs, throat diseases. Raspberries have also helped boost immunity. And the beautiful girls were sure that rubbing the cheeks with a red berry gives them a healthy blush. By the way, some of the Russian young ladies always ate a handful of berries before a kiss in order to hear the highest praise from the guys: “Your lips are sweet as honey.”

A lot of time has passed since then, but raspberries are still popular. It is also used in the manufacture of children's medicinal syrups, and as part of cosmetic preparations. Modern cooking also cannot do without sweet, fragrant, raspberry berries. Pies and pies, preserves and jams, mousses and cocktails, juices and teas, cakes and pastries, ice cream and sweets - raspberries are everywhere, absolutely everywhere. Yes, and for the winter it is harvested in different ways: dried, boiled jam, frozen, ground with sugar.

Raspberry Jam Day in modern times

Several centuries ago, during the celebration of Raspberry, girls danced round raspberry bushes, guys composed funny ditties about raspberries, and old people told legends about how a small berry saved the whole village from the plague, how a bear was lured with the help of several raspberry branches and tamed, how they hid in dense thickets from the Mongols. A lot of interesting things could be learned about medicinal properties.

Today, Raspberry Jam Day is celebrated on a smaller scale. Nevertheless, it is on August 16 that the first tasting of sweet, slightly viscous and viscous jam takes place. Relatives, close acquaintances, neighbors and friends are invited to test the mastery of hostesses. And in popular cafes and prestigious restaurants, unique promotions are held, during which culinary specialists and chefs compete in the preparation of desserts, where raspberry jam is the main ingredient. After the enchanting show, all spectators are given ready-made dishes for free.

Useful properties of raspberry jam

• Pectin, tannins - approximately 0.9%
• Fiber - 4 ... 6%

Cooking jam is not just a preparation of vitamin sweets. This is a special ceremony, kitchen magic. Once upon a time, not a single tea party in Rus' was complete without jam.

Who and when was the first to cook jam is unknown. It seems that it was cooked in Rus' from time immemorial. Historians are inclined to believe that jam cooking is a Russian national tradition. There is another guess that the Eastern Slavs adopted the tradition of making jam from the Finno-Ugric tribes. One way or another, but jam has existed for hundreds of years.

It was customary to start cooking each jam on certain days. For example, on July 24 (according to the folk calendar, the day of Ofimya the Komarnitsa or Efimya Stozharnitsa), the cooking of raspberry jam began. Since there was no sugar in Rus', and sugar brought from abroad was very expensive, honey was used to make jam.
And in the old days, jam was cooked without honey at all, boiling the berries to a density, for 5-6 hours until the initial volume decreased by 6-10 times. They did this without an open fire, heating a Russian stove, which is capable of holding a high temperature for several hours.

In the 19th century in Russia, the skill of making jam was put on a par with the ability to sing, draw, play the piano.
Maidens from respectable families were taught the art of making jam in boarding schools and institutes for noble maidens. Catherine II was a great lover of gooseberry jam. Loved him and A.S. Pushkin. But Ivan the Terrible loved cucumber jam ...

Nowadays, there are diligent housewives who cook jam according to old recipes, but not in the oven, but in the oven.
You need to cook it in several stages. First, the berries are boiled
in an enamel saucepan on the stove, over low heat, until the volume
will not decrease by two or three times. Then the jam is placed in the oven.
and boiled down until it decreases by 6-8 times, depending on the sugar content of a particular berry.

Centuries have passed, but the housewives still cook this ancient Russian delicacy. And still the aroma spreading around the apartment
from freshly brewed jam fills the house with comfort.

Story

The holiday itself - Raspberry Jam Day appeared only in 2015 under the guidance of the online culinary community. Choosing a day to celebrate such a wonderful holiday, enthusiasts relied on historical data. Indeed, since the last century, such a holiday as Malinnik has come to us. In Rus', according to tradition, it was celebrated annually on August 16. The holiday was dedicated to the berry that fed our ancestors along with other gifts of the forest. After all, even then, in the distant past, our ancestors had heard a lot about the benefits of raspberry jam, its healing properties. Therefore, having waited for the final ripeness of the berry, they processed it and closed the jam. This period fell just in the middle of August, hence the date of the celebration of Malinnik.

Raspberry Jam Day is a truly Slavic holiday, because only our lands are famous for their fertility, and the climate is most suitable for the growth of raspberry bushes, which are enough to treat every family with a jar of ready-made jam.

Traditions

By tradition, this day is a tasting of only boiled raspberry jam. Neighbors, friends and family gather at the same table for tea, sharing their own recipes for the best jam. For the holiday they make from jam:

1. Homemade cakes (pies, pies).
2. Dessert.
3. Serve neat with tea.
4. Add to sweet dishes (cereals).

In big cities, many cafes and restaurants offer to try their own culinary masterpieces created on the basis of raspberry jam. There are fairs and competitive programs in the central squares of cities.
