Sininen lenkki is for uunimakkara not for grill

[@chrisu2002]

Or saunamakkara

[@patricklaakkonen2307]

LOL LIKE IF YOU DONT HAVE SOCKS this^^

[@jonezki2451]

That's true

[@Zebhie]

Or for makkara kastike. Sausage Sauce with black pepper the sininen lenkki is the best. And the habanero makkara is nothing. The best is wilhelm chlili-sulatejuusto. Its has more hot flavor but not to much. Just be cauntius of the chess becouse it get hot inside.

[@ButterFly-zh8ho]

Or on a wood fire, cut in big slices and put on a stick like a marshmallow.. On a wood sauna it's good too packed up inside an aluminum paper

[@victoreem2]

Do this with HK Blöö 1. Take off the skin 2. Make about 5 five cuts per sausage 3. Put cheese slices in the cuts 4. Put it in a hot oven 5. Eat with your choice of potatoes(i recommend smash)

[@ellav5845]

Wouuu

[@innahaapa1314]

Sininen lenkki has a "weird smooth taste" because it's more flour than meat. The most famous "vegetable" of Finland! X-D

But what a veggie it is. Yum yum yummie. 🤘

[@grimmow187]

only vegetable that grows in here north is reindeer

[@ClassicsFroms-sq7zk]

You are supposed to eat the grain makkara with lingonberry jam

[@chefren77]

..and you're not supposed to put ketchup on any of them :P

[@kimmotuomi7272]

I was just about to comment the same thing! Lingonberry Jam, not mustard.

[@kimmotuomi7272]

Hear hear, no ketchup! Only kids do ketchup with sausages! It is mustard only. Except for grain-sausage, look other comments.

[@YouSillyClown]

pretty sure he can eat them however he likes them best...

[@nuutti02]

Kivikylän ryynimakkara works great with mustard.

[@tepi4173]

Sininen Lenkki is NOT for grilling its used usually to make sausage soup or owen sausage or with some bread

[@jerepesonen8426]

Sininen lenkki is awesome when you take plastic Cover off, cut some holes In it and put sliced Cheese In those. Then at owen with 150°c like 45mins to 1 Hour and you Will have perfect food for after sauna parties... Ofc some lager with it 😉

[@jamesbernadette6216]

Whoever this Owen is, I don't think he's done anything so bad he deserves to be heated to 150°c. Just leave those kind of mild temperatures to Finnish kids for sauna practice.

[@jerepesonen8426]

James Bernadette Ment oven ofc... Thank you for pointing that out👍

[@jamesbernadette6216]

Yea, 'tis just my kind of dry humour ^^'

[@emedaam]

Pure class, well done.

[@mikkoliimatainen3262]

Meillä on aina sillee

[@JMSvlogs_official]

My alltime favourite is Wilhelm Chili-Sulatejuusto. Also if you find Tapolan Aurella, it has some damn good bluecheese flavour.. 🙏🏻

[@m4sell]

Oh YES this!! Wilhelm Chili-sulatejuusto ❤️

[@Emerelify]

Yes, agreed! Chili-sulatejuusto 👌🏼

[@teanette]

Yes! That's the best! 😍

[@vilma1488]

The best makkara ever! 🌶

[@jamisusijarvi646]

Tapola Aurella is really good

[@lolzman122]

The best normal traditional Finnish sausage has to be huiluntuhti. If you like the taste of low quality sausages it won't be for you but otherwise try it

[@WirelessxD]

Doesn't have Huiluntuhti by Kivikylä? Then it really isn't makkara test imo.

[@Goisima]

couldn't agree more

[@11Mr_BeaN11]

* Hulluntuhti

[@Goisima]

huiluntuhti se on 😂

[@11Mr_BeaN11]

@@Goisima niinpäs olikin Kivikylän kotipalvaamon Huiluntuhti. 😂 Muistelin että miksi olis tuollalailla nimetty, kun väistämättä tulee mieleen kaksimielisyyksiä tuommosesta nimestä. 😉😆

[@if.kikiteka]

Hey dave i just wanted to tell that all of my family like to watch your videos. We all are sooooo happy that you make these videos and we all just love your videos, thank you Dave you made my day again ❤️

[@RoniBack]

You have the best job in the world. XD

[@VeryFinnishProblems]

Fella, if you think filming yourself eating crap "sausages" is the best job in the world you clearly need to get out more :)

[@orvelipeikko3527]

Mitä helvettiä Roni...

[@melakka]

Ai no moi vaa sullekki Roni Bäkki :D

[@kartaaniakseli6868]

Very Finnish Problems ekkö muka itte söisi makkarraa työksesi? :O

[@jannee38]

En söisi

[@kenohukka]

Wilhelm Chili-sulatejuusto , That`s my ultimate favourite makkara all time , you have to try it !

[@Arkkis27]

Wilhelm Chili-sulatejuusto. It has the kick (a little more than the Kabanossi Habanero has) and it has cheese... I mean it's match made in heaven.

[@XtreeM_FaiL]

Arkkis Helsinki wursti Naga morich if you want a kick.

[@MrThomska]

Its the worst sausage

[@J84N]

Great vid again Dave! 💪

[@kpt002]

I love the view behind you!!

[@tuukkahyvonen8551]

If you like spicy makkara, then you should try ”HK Kabanossi Karski Juusto Jalapeno”. Its so dmn good, definitely my favourite makkara. There are 6makkara in the pack, they are much smaller than the regular makkara.

[@merihalme9498]

Ahhh you finally did it!

[@jussisaari7683]

Hi dave, i would love to see a long video on the subject of you comparing english and finnish trad food, with lots of insight and finnish bias. Cheers!

[@anniinanieminen2315]

Karski-sausages are really good, you have to try one of them!!🤤

[@irmanaattori]

Dear god! Sininen lenkki is in a plastic casing, you cannot eat, let alone grill it! Remove it from the casing and prepare however, but you cannot eat the plastic.

[@niiloorola9213]

Nice, good start!

[@ssaf9865]

Bro i love your videos!🙂

[@Johkutius]

Fetajuusto-mustapippuri! You have to try it. Fetacheese-blackpepper sausage. I absolutely love it. The chilisulatejuusto is also very good.

[@fdk7014]

As others have posted, sininen lenkki goes in the oven with some cheese and I like to put some tomato wedges in it as well. However, a real finn wraps it in aluminium foil and cooks it directly on the sauna stove while he is bathing. After the sauna session you open the package and enjoy your dinner!

[@karhunvatukka6045]

Kivikylän Huiluntuhti!! The best kind of makkara you can get!

[@ilesalmo7724]

I've been loving the seitsemän chilin makkara by Harjun makkaratehdas. Apparently they grind the chilis with different coarseness levels so each flavour hits you at different times. You should do a video on tuoremakkara. They have less preservatives and are usually more "artisanal"

[@Taskuvesku]

Dave, you did THE most Finnished thing there! You cannot leave it in 1 video! You have to make makkaran tasting serie (season 1)!

[@jannetykkylainen5188]

Hi Dave, you should try Wilhelms chili-sulatejuusto sausage! It's not as hot as habanero but with cheese I think it's perfect makkara.

[@backonlazer791]

Samaa mieltä! Vaikka en yleensä tulisesta tykkää, niin siinä on kyllä sen verran makua että on uhrauksen arvoinen.

[@sitruuna8]

Tried Kabanossi Rio Picante (with garlic and chilli) couple of weeks ago, was really good! There is also several types of "raakamakkara", you should try them too!

[@kiimapeppu]

You did not have the best of the best. Huiluntuhti makkara. So good!

[@Audiojack_]

This is true!

[@YotaraVideo]

Try the Kabanossi Savupekoni one. Perfect! 👌🏻

[@NaHKi5]

Hey Dave! Next year you should try this makkara: Atria Wilhelm Feta-Mustapippuri - Its by far the best makkara I've ever tasted!

[@Jemnisi]

Wilhelm chili-sulatejuusto is the way to go 😍

[@backonlazer791]

I think that Wilhelm Chili Sulatejuusto is probably the best stand-alone grillimakkara (even though I don't usually like chili stuff), although I have never tasted the Valkosipuli-Sinihomejuustomakkara (which I definitely will now).

[@AikunIhana]

You know Dave, You are my absolut favorite foreigner to taste Finnish ...well anything as You really eat the food and drink the beverages even if you don´t like them at first bite or mouthful, You really give it a chance that You might grow into likeing even the weirdest things. Kudos!!

[@Yarskymator]

Katalonian Carlos is definetly one of my favorites, and might be little bit more influenced from choriso than normal finnish makkara, but should try it if possible

[@MrAatami]

Steamed Käriste from some gas station or grill, or boil them yourself. Maybe it's just me, but sometimes couple of those with Turun sinappi is the best thing you can have or remember having.

[@jonskunator]

Sininen Lenkki certainly gets smushy on open fire. It is generally recommended for oven. Some people cut some notches on it and put slices of cheese in. It's a bland bulk sausage from the old times. Still an important part of Finnish tradition though. Kabanossi Rio Picante has been my go-to for the last few years.

[@hennabostrom3762]

I tried the pekoni Wilhelmi (or was it Kabanossi) while in Finland and it was awesome. Not about makkara but I just saw an add about Harmaa Pantteri which is a chili salmiakki. Surely you are trying that (I won't be in Finland before Christmas and need to wait).

[@Kiasa94]

Many people have already suggested Hulluntuhti by Kivikylä, which is good, but their juustomakkara, called Juustotuhti, is really good! My favorite juustomakkara

[@normirymy]

Hi Dave! My favourite sausage is kabanossi savupekoni (smokey Bacon) You should do hk sininen lenkki In oven with cuts that have Koskenlaskija cheese and beer after sauna

[@santtumastola1254]

Kivikylän Huilun Tuhti is one of my favorite

[@yennei707]

Snellman eetvartti chipotle has a nice kick to it and also a hint of smoky flavor 😉 it’s my new favourite 👍

[@Orkel2]

It's never the end of the grill season in Finland. We have a hot grill outside even at new years when it is -20C to -30C.

[@micometer]

My favorite makara, Kabanossi Grillibalkans~ Its my 5/5 and you might be able to find it in... Prisma? We always found them at Citymarket because for some reason the Prisma near us never stocked them.

[@Fireluigi1]

Best makkara in my opinion is the Salami/cheddar. It's so good!

[@siinasundstrom3175]

Best video forever

[@villelepoaho4105]

The "Sininen lenkki" is great when you peel off the skin, make a cut in it, and fill it with tomatoes and cheese. Then put it in the oven. I recommend trying it out some day.

[@ilovecats71]

Any kind of cheese sausages are my favorite! ❤️😎

[@kpt002]

When you said: "And here I am sitting in this.. eating makkara and this is my job.." I thought: "And here I am watching you eating and rating Finnish makkaras eventhough I do not even like makkara at all.." Just nice to listen to you speaking English in the middle of the Finnish nature.. :)

[@mist0804]

Stop! You've violated the law! *Punch*

[@jarilindstrom5627]

Try Sininen lenkki wrapped in bacon. That was a preferd grilling season treat few years ago.

[@SK-nw4ig]

I recommend Atria Wilhelm Kukko Gouda. Chicken sausage with cheese. Vry nice texture and flavour.

[@AE86Vilee]

It's quite different to these makkara since it's completely raw but Saarioinen's Grilliwurst Chorizo is easily my favourite one.

[@ville-petteriismala9329]

You must try Kivikylän Huiluntuhti and Juustotuhti makkara. Huiluntuhti is best original makkara in Finland and Juustotuhti is best makkara in the world! Its good and cheesy with flavourfull taste.

[@kasperjoonatan6014]

When are you going to try Finnish beers?!

[@jerepesonen8426]

Kasper Joonatan There are many videos about testing alcohol on dave's Channel. They Includes beer as well. Just look up from the older videos.

[@kasperjoonatan6014]

I remember him tasting "weird" alcohols, but not beers, at least not the good ones.

[@wanji22]

Kaks suomalaist puhuu englantii toisille näin

[@jerepesonen8426]

Kasper Joonatan kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4bdeaVop7CCns0 there was some olvi beers but you are right.. He tries mostly bad stuff In these videos...

[@armiunicorn5102]

Kasper Joonatan he alredy has

[@miksy23]

Next time try kivikylän huiluntuhti and snellmans beefmakkara

[@LividMoodflow]

My 5/5 makkara is Bratwurst. It has a nice texture and mixture of spices.

[@AHVENAN]

You should come back to Åland next year and try some of the sausages from Dahlmans, ours local slaughterhouse, special the 'wienerkorv', that one is heavenly!

[@Jonijaako]

Haha i just cracked laughing at the "Professional KZbinr" bit, love it xD

[@Moosemonni]

My ultimate favorite is Kabanossi's juusto-jalapeno one. They're like half the length of a normal makkara and there's 5? 6? makkara's per pack. I'm not a fan of spicy stuff, so that stuff absolutely burns my mouth. But I love it. I think they have another mini makkara packet too, should look for that too. Last summer the only place where I was able to find them was my local Citymarket here in Helsinki.

[@rassekallio]

I truly recommend Wilhelm's Feta-Mustapippuri sausage, best sausage I have never eaten!

[@kuliranisti]

kivikylän JUUSTOTUHTI is my favorite, the best cheese makkara ive ever tasted

[@Etronax]

Kivikylä Huiluntuhti is really good. Kabanossi XO was my favorite but I don't know if it's still available.

[@N0t4v41l4ble]

Snellman Chipotle Eetvartti has a good chili flavor, that is what I mostly buy. Also try Savuhovi Tuska (Pain), it is more hot but nothing extreme. Savuhovi used to have products like Viha (Wrath), Isoviha (Great Wrath) and Raivo (Rage). They were something else, Tuska is for babies compared to those guys.

[@sissisammakko]

Summer might be over but grilling season is on 24/7 around the year...

[@Tomy_Huovilainen]

24/365

[@Zadhh]

You should try Snellman's Chipotle Eetvartti, its 83% meat and has a really tasty chili flavour. Another one I recommend is Wilhelm chili-sulatejuusto.

[@Pyynkuiskaaja]

Try Huiluntuhti and chili sulatejuusto .... In finland we alkohol perskeles!

[@oqlthorp]

Your pronounciaton of "Makkara" is beautiful

[@rotodape]

Definitely try Atria Wilhelm chili sulatejuusto.

[@kihrEx]

Huberin Huilu, by HK Maakarit, Jalapeno and cheddar with high meat%, it is very very tasty. Can't go wrong with Kabanossi Habanero though, it is my long time favourite!

[@TheGuilty11]

Aww you didn't pick the Wilhelm Chili Sulatejuusto makkara i mentioned. That is my new number 1 from this summer. It has some chili kick and the sulatejuusto makes it VERY juicy.

[@matiaseinola6968]

You must taste Snellman Eetvartti Chipotle and Wilhelm "CHILI-SULATEJUUSTO"..second one is your finding 5/5 sausage!

[@Markus253]

Wilhelm´s Chili-Sulatejuusto! You have to try it.

[@tuukkahyvonen8551]

You definitely need to try ”HK Maakarit” sausages, they are finnish versions of sausages from all over the world

[@NIKLASets]

sininen lenkki is the best vegetable. try snelmann 78% lenkimakkara its the best of them. btw lennkkimakkara goes to oven not to grill XD.

[@alsunpilsut]

This vid made me so hungry 😂

[@Nikzzza]

Snelmann's Eetvartti is the best one if we're going for not flavoured sausage. Best flavoured one is Savupekoni by Kabanossi(HK). And for a cheese sausage, Juusto Eetvartti. But that's just my opinions.

[@khristoforosbeats7972]

You should try mustaleimalenkki from Tapola. I'm not sure you can find it in Helsinki though beacause Tapola is from Tampere. And you should boil it beacuse it's better that way

[@ronkeli-hauki7643]

Dave you are so good youtuber

[@oonatukia]

After spending a wonderful summer in Finland, could you now imagine yourself living in London and not being able to do most of the things you have done, (or at least as easily)? Darn your videos make me miss Finland so much (From a Finnish student living in London :D) If you are doing a Q&A sometime soon, maybe you can include this question there :)

[@pulkkakelkka]

Sininen lenkki is also traditionally used for Sausage soup aka Makkarakeitto.

[@Garage_Built88]

You should try Savuhovi's "Tuska" or "Auranen" (bluecheese). Auranen includes 10% "Valio Aura" and almost everything else is meat. Tuska is quite hot, but not too much. They also had "Isoviha" which was even hotter, but I think that one is discontinued. You should be able to find them from bigger markets, if not, you need to come visit Kerava - their factory and shop is here :-)

[@ankea8757]

PUNAINEN lenkki is THE BEST. Slice it on top of Ruis puikula, with sinappi 😍♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@herrapulu]

Hyvä video :)

[@mullepostia]

Huiluntuhti Best makkara in the world, you should try it, and make thin slashes on the skin 1cm spaces before grilling it.

[@keimojeppe]

Super strong mustard to go with habanero sausage makes it 5/5 :)

[@roy-txt.bloghakanen5173]

Hyvä dave. Ja välillä suomi , good. Siitä se lähtee.

[@timoraitio94]

You should try kabanossi savupekoni (smoky bacon).

[@tomi5046]

For me Helsinkiwurst is the best Makkara, worth to try if you find it in market.

[@JuSA_]

The video we didn't know we needed.

[@mikkoliimatainen3262]

Kabanossi is my favorit but kabanossis cheeze is amazing

[@jaeger233]

wilhelm makkara is my favorite as well

[@fredrije1]

Yum! We are grilling bratwurst tonight for dinner. That habanero one sounded delicious!

[@str4range99]

Try smoky bourbon sausuage!! Its so gooood!!!

[@4minutesavedme]

If you like blue cheese you should try out Tapolan Aurella sausage, it's the best ^^

[@raineja]

Hk blue is original finnish makkara. And great innovation. It is basekly carbage 🤣. I mean when others put breans and other stuff away HK put those to makkara. And HK blue is vegetable.😁

You gotta try Chef Wotkins sausages, imo the best there is.

[@tupufoks]

Try some makkara made by smaller companys. They usually have more flavor and also weirder combinations. Cat's parents might know some local companys from that area.. 🤔

[@Obi-111]

Try out "HK Maakarit Katalonian Carlos" found in Prisma at least. My new favorite makkara!

[@rahmadihmadnashad2346]

I love that he wrote everything else on english but he wrote sausage in finnish
