Would you fancy a bite of an ancient Finnish cuisine of fire and smoke?
Finns have benefitted from the wide variety of woodland foods for as long as anyone can remember. Truth be told, the existence of this country and its people is based on it. The land was inhabited by hunters and gatherers, who were looking for the best fish, game and other food. We are now following the foodsteps [pun intended] of our ancestors and turned the whole forest into a restaurant! Why bring ingredients to a kitchen, when it’s equally possible to bring the kitchen to the ingredients?
Seasons: May – October
The lucky ones might even hear the hollow sounds
In the north the winters are so cold the lakes and even the sea freeze for months giving people a chance to have more surface for winter activities! Glass-like ice forms gently and steadily when the degrees drop below zero Celsius. And once it is solid enough you can walk on it!
Seasons: December – February (subject to ice conditions)
