How to Cook dishes from Finland
In 2005, the then French President,
Jacques Chirac, described Finnish cuisine as the worst in
Europe. Of course, while he is
entitled to his opinion, others do have different opinions, and many people think that
Finnish cuisine has much to offer.
Traditional Finnish cuisine shares much with
German cuisine,
Russian cuisine, and
Swedish cuisine, although
it tends to differ from Russian cuisine by
using little or no sour cream (smetana), and from
Swedish cuisine by being
less sweet.
Some things to particularly look out for in Finnish dishes,
are the use of wholemeal (barley, oats and rye) and
berries (blueberries, cloudberries, lingonberries and sea buckthorn)
as an ingredient in many dishes. You will also observe
that dishes from western Finland tend
to use meat and fish more prominently, whereas dishes from
eastern Finland tend to emphasize
mushrooms and vegetables.
Some popular Finnish recipes and dishes include:
- Graavilohi - Raw
salmon cured with salt, sugar and dill.
- Hernekeitto - A soup made from green peas, pork and mustard.
It is often eaten
on Thursdays with pancakes for dessert.
- Kaalikääryleet - Cabbage rolls (cabbage leaves stuffed with fillings),
often served with lingonberry jam.
- Kalakukko - Fish (vendace, perch or
salmon) baked inside a loaf of bread. Sometimes
pork with potato or rutabaga may be substituted for fish.
- Kylmäsavustettu lohi - Cold smoked
salmon.
- Leipäjuusto (also known as "Juustoleipä") - A sort of pancake made from
Finnish squeeky cheese (a cheese made from the rich milk of a cow which has recently calved).
It can be eaten hot or cold.
- Lihapullat - Meatballs.
- Mashed potato.
- Rössypottu - A stew made from blood pudding, pork and potatoes.
