The glorious Russian hut? Of course, a beautiful carved shutters, the heated oven and the smell of baking. Each hostess has closely followed the condition of the kitchen utensils as new cost a lot of money. And if clay pots were commonplace, and they can be purchased on any fair, the cast iron or cast iron pots were expensive, a rare treat, and appeared not so long ago.

An Important thing needed in every house with a Russian stove the tongs for the pot or the clay pot.

Stag or tongs?

In literature we can find many references about the use of seized on. This is a traditional Russian household items that have found their place in modern life. Historical illustrations, depicting rural life, show a grateful viewer of lush ruddy women in colorful scarves and stag at the ready.

Not to burn the handle, pulling the pots from the cooking out of the oven, the hostess used a simple device in the form of a deep Crescent. This item is made of metal in the forge, and fastened it to a long wooden handle for a special sleeve.

tongs for the pot

Pots and cast irons had a different diameter, respectively, in the cavern at the furnace were a few assorted seized on. And if the word “clamp” is an ancient Russian concept, in other parts of the world it is still possible to hear the word “lines”, that does not change its lexical meaning.

To Each his own

The Accelerated pace of modernization, and the development of metallurgical industry, led to various innovations in the production of kitchen utensils. There are more lightweight alloys with non-stick coating, the versatile pots and pans, to apply as for frying, and for boiling or roasting.

Such supershorty have a handle with a special mount that allows you to remove it if the utensils placed in the oven. Such tongs for frying pan can be made of various materials (plastic, aluminum, stainless steel).

The Mount they have looks like the bracket is held by a nut with a cap. This handle makes a set of different-sized pans more ergonomic, freeing up additional space for other utensils.

And if you think that this is a modern innovation, you are greatly mistaken. After all the pies in the Russian furnace baked fryers, got that after cooking this way, as the tongs for iron could not gain a foothold in round the sides of the pans.

Cans – cups

For the Housewives the hottest time – late summer, early fall. Ripened harvest requires not only harvest, but also the correct harvesting them for the winter. Perhaps someone will remember grandma's pantry, where the shelves were stored glass jars of jam, pickles and mushrooms.

Do you remember how did you get sterilized containers from a container with boiling water? No?

Glass containers with narrow necks made of inventors some time to think over the way of its transportation during sterilization. Something like a pair of scissors with semi-circular arcs at the ends arranged horizontally. So it looks like tongs for jars, which is quite long been used in the kitchens of Soviet citizens in the sealing of the conservation.

It is Made of steel and does not lose its relevance today. Using it in the right time you can pull a hot jar, not afraid to Ambaritsa boiling water. After all, what could be better than home made pickles from the garden, harvested with their own hands?

Military

In history there are documented instances where soldiers of the Russian army that came to fight the French in 1812, used the tongs. This is not a classic, more familiar to the layman kitchen option, a slightly modified fixture.

It looked like a slingshot, pointed at the ends teeth. With its help it was possible to immobilize the enemy, not engaging with him in melee. Besides, such a spear often used by women who remained in the towns along with the elderly and children.

What is “clamp”? It's not just a special tool for pulling hot pots from the oven, and the subject has great historical and cultural value. Without it it is impossible to imagine a real Russian izba, the campaigns of the men involved in the fight against Napoleon's troops, and ordinary Russian women "and a galloping horse and a burning house”.
