* Cucumber jam.
Wash and dry the smallest and greenest cucumbers (that have not yet formed seeds), put them in heavily salted water, add a cabbage leaf, and put them in a warm place for a few days until the cucumbers turn yellow. Then put them in a basin, placing them on the bottom and covering the cucumbers with the same cabbage leaves. Boil the salted water in which the cucumbers were soaking and pour it over them. When it cools down a little, drain, boil, pour it over again and repeat until the cucumbers turn green (covering the basin each time so that the water does not cool down too quickly). When the cucumbers turn green, put them in cold water for 3 days, then take them out, wipe them, pour cooled weak syrup over them, prepared from a pound of sugar (400 g) and 1.5 cups of water with the addition of 2 ginger roots, zest and juice of 2 lemons.
The next day, drain the syrup, add 1.5 pounds of sugar for each pound of cucumbers, boil until thick and boil the cucumbers in it 2 times.
