Finnish cuisine

Hi,

When living abroad, tasting the local cuisine is part of discovering the country.

What is your favorite food in Finland?

What is the local speciality?

Share with us the local tastes of Finland and why not your best recipe.

Thank you in advance,

Since much of the Finnish cuisine is about the local fish and root vegetables, and I am not a fish person, nor do I like vegetables, I don't care too much for it. However, I do like the reindeer and mashed potatoes (meat and taters, yum!), plus reindeer on pizza. I have also learned to enjoy hevonen steaks (horse), which makes my sister threaten to disown me! :) My husband likes the Krulien pies stuffed with rice and topped with hard-boiled eggs, but they aren't my thing, either. I also like Finnish pancakes with fruit, or even savory with ham and cheese. The crepes are super easy to make, too!
