Today I’m trying Finnish food for the first time and living on Finnish food for 24 hours. Come with me and Bobby from @LivingBobby on a delicious food tour in Helsinki, Finland!
I have to say that Finnish food was not what I expected and is seriously underrated!
Here are the foods we ate:
Breakfast:
Delicious Finnish Pastries: Cinnamon Roll (Korvapuusti), Runeberg Torte (one of the best foods in the world for me!), Blueberry Cake, Cream Puff (Laskiaispulla)
Lunch:
Here I surprised Bobby with some delicious foods such as the famous Karelian Pie, and other rye bread sandwiches with salmon and seafood from Fazer Cafe.
I also went to Hesburger where I got us a double cheeseburger and fries
Snacks:
Salty liquorice or Salmiakki, (known as one of the worst foods in the world), Fazer Blue Chocolate, Mariane, Geisha Chocolate, Dumle
Dinner:
A delicious Finnish Salmon Soup (Lohikeitto)
By the way, this is the third episode of my travels in Finland! I've lived in Finland for a month in the middle of winter. It was so fun and I would totally move to Finland if it wasn't so cold haha.
You should watch these two videos next:
FIRST CLASS OVERNIGHT TRAIN to the ARCTIC (The Lapland Express)

Wow, a big thank you for the positive reaction on this video!!! I feel very grateful :) Check out my Finland playlist here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-BU4wdew0dr0.html

These types of videos are fun to watch as a Finnish person, but this one is even better, it's actually researched, you're actually trying the culturally core Finnish foods and not just whatever you can pick up at a store. I appreciate that.

That first almost moist rye bread is called "Saaristolaisleipä" in Finnish which translates to "archipelago bread". So as the name hints its from south west of Finland very our biggest and most famous archipelago is simplifiet from Turku shores to Åland.

OMG that cinnamon roll and other two cakes are total classics. The 2nd one 1:11 is named after Johan Ludvig Runeberg who was a famous finnish writer, very important for our national history. His statue is even centered right in the heart of Helsinki (esplanade). His wife Fredrika made this recipee. The tradition is to eat this cake on the Runeberg's day in february.

I LOVE this story! I'm so happy I was there for his birthday haha :)

@JumalanKasi Год назад

@@LucileHR Its very hard to find it outside february, so that makes it more special.

@Megaleka69 Год назад

Originally these cakes were made by a patissier in Porvoo called Lars Astenius and J.L Runeberg was really fond of his pastries. At some point Fredrika started to also bake those herself and she also wrote down the recipe for us to discover. It is a common mistake that these are the invention of Fredrika Runeberg.

@tanjanikola9489 Год назад

Two of the pastries are only available around February: laskiaispulla (the one with cream and either almond paste or jam) is for Shrove Tuesday, equivalent to pancake day in some countries, and Runebergin torttu (the cake made with almond flour with the jam and icing ring on the top) is made to celebrate the famous poet and author, J. L. Runeberg on 5 February. These are definitely very seasonal treats! The former is known as semla in other Nordic countries.

@Metallicks Год назад

Best about Karelian pie is that its so simple and tastes good. You can buy it from all super markets and even frozen ones. 10-12 minutes in oven and they are ready. Egg butter is easy to make. Just little salt few boiled eggs the way you want to boil them and lots of real hard butter and smash them with fork or food processor and mix them together. If you want you can add more ingredients, but i like it this way.

@Metallicks Год назад

Also i actually like home made egg butter much more than this processed one.

@LucileHR Год назад

Yum! I love Karelian pies, thanks for sharing those tips :)

Karelian pie is best when heated. Bread with shrimp on was likely malt rye bread, known as "saaristolaisleipä", "coastal area folks bread". It is not the only sweet bread, but there are not many. Candy: "Dumle" - translate from swedish "dum le" == "stupid smile". And you missed the meat pies at the railway station.

After checking as many as I can to see if someone else said this first but I want to actually add to those that have a lesson, so the Karelian pie is actually called rice pie most of the time since Karelian pie is a named that connected to culture and is called such only when it's made by an actual Karelian person

@finnishculturalchannel Год назад

Good setting, some close calls, and you made it through! People love that Hesburger mayonnaise, so you get plenty of it. You seem like sandwich cake people, so it made me wish you would have come across Kalakukko. Would have been interesting to see what you make of it: "1000 years ago KALAKUKKO bread". Seemed you had that whipped cream bun with jam. There's a nation dividing debate whether that bun is better with jam or with marzipan. If there's one version served without the other, it's borderline discrimination. That salmiakki you tried was really basic product and easy one to dislike. Inside delicious chocolate some gooey salmiakki substance might have been more difficult one for Bobby to reject. Maybe some background info on salmiakki will intrigue Bobby to give it another go one day?: "Why Finland fell in love with salty liquorice"
