"muikku" is a freshwater fish, it is caught in lakes and abundant in Finland, it is cooked in many ways, as it is freshwater fish it is not very salty even if it is salted .

[@Jane2Lane]

One recipe for alcohol-free glögi: (5 servings) - 8 dl water, - 1 cinnamon stick, - 6 cloves (whole), - half a teaspoon cardamom, - quarter teaspoon ginger, - 2 dl black currant juice (no added water), - 2 tablespoons sugar -> 1. Add water and spices into pot, boil for 10min. Sieve it and put it back to pot. 2. Add juice and sugar. Warm up, do not bring to boil. Serve with raisins and almonds if you wish (recipe from k-ruoka). Loving your channel! Greetings from Espoo, southern Finland

[@catherinekayy]

Ohhhh thank you so so so much ❤❤❤❤🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹

[@BiancaHaeckDesigns]

I second this recipe, it's a good basic one from here.

[@ButterFly-zh8ho]

In France it's hard to find forest fruit juice, so I make it with a mixture of cranberry juice and muscat grape juice. You can also make a version based on citrus juice such as tangerine, orange juice, lemon juice. I live in France but I was born in Espoo.

[@NiiloPaasivirta]

Glögg is a medieval import from Europe. Mulled wine, or Hypocras, is about the same thing, glögi is just warmed.

[@PeterCulley]

I'm a Brit who has been living here for 30 years. That video gave a really good general picture of Rovaniemi through the eyes of visitors. Here, there are rules for everything, which is why everything works. Any medicines must be purchased from a chemist/pharmacy, any alcoholic beverages over 5.5% have to be purchased from the government-owned Alko - it's the weird way things are done here. There is one pharmacy by the huge CityMarket store, halfway to town, which would've been closer) but it may have been closed at that time. It's only a 10-minute taxi trip between the Santa Claus Village and town anyway. You definitely missed out not trying the eggy butter on the Karalian pasties! Yeah, the salmon is great here and can be bought really cheaply from any shop. It's very popular here and often served. You were lucky with the snow and the temperatures - it was rather mild during your visit. The Fazer chocolate brand is Finland's household name, a bit comparable to Cadbury's in the UK, only I find Fazer better quality. The rice porridge is actually rice pudding - they just translated it literally from the Finnish, although the term rice porridge is actually used in some countries. I was impressed by this video, keep travelling! (Y)

[@catherinekayy]

Ooohh that makes sense I didnt realise that Thank you so so much for shaqring this I wish I knew it before visiting this could be super helpful for someone new coming!

[@ImForwardlook]

The chocolates are Finnish, the most traditional and loved variety too, the "Fazer Blue". And the a in Fazer is pronounced like the a in "car".

[@catherinekayy]

They are so delicious 😂❤❤❤❤ I loved them hehehe

[@ImForwardlook]

@@catherinekayy Glad to hear that! Maybe try the Fazer "Geisha" too?

[@olgismolgis]

the way finns pronounce Fazer is like Fah-Zerr (roll the r) , ive seen brits pronounce it like ”fazah” which sounds so funny to me

[@Makedz88]

The reindeers are cute for sure, and it might feel strange to eat. If there is one meat, that I would gladly eat with a clear conscience, it would definitely be reindeer. They have been bred in freedom, in their natural habitat and everything's done ethically.

[@sso80]

Yes lihapiirakka is something very traditional. It is usually served with ketchup, mustard, diced onions, and pickle relish to add taste. There are many street food kiosks or vans in Finland selling lihapiirakka, and if you order one, you will be asked what extras do you want. All extras are highly recommended if you want to get the best lihapiirakka experience :) Lihapiirakka literally means "meat pie", but nowadays a vegan version of lihapiirakka is also available.

[@catherinekayy]

Oohhhh this sounds delicious! It was super tasty! 🥹🤍🤍🤍🤍 ohh I’d like to try the vegan version too!

[@Skege1000]

@@catherinekayy You can also get lihapiirakka with weiners or sausages. I like to put some cheese and some good sauce in it. And the dough is similar that donut, it just don't have much sugar. That orange/yellow jam is cloudberry jam, that you ate with that sqeeky cheese

[@jarkkosorsa6000]

Vegan version is best

[@herrakaarme]

@@catherinekayy I guess it tells something about the lihapiirakka/meat pie's status as a traditional food in Finland that it's a part of a Finnish, English-themed joke, here translated into English for your convenience: What did James Bond say at a snack bar? "Pie. Meat pie." Original: "Piirakka. Lihapiirakka." Though somehow I suspect every single country might have this joke in one form or another, due to how conspicuously James Bond always introduces himself.

[@petrirantavalli859]

@@catherinekayy Well the original from the middle ages was filled with anything that wasn't meat, turnips, rutabaga, apple etc. and boiled in broth not even oil cooked necessarily because meat was expensive. These days from a gill kiosk they usually have salad, fried egg, wieners, sausage, kebab, pineapple and even shrimps and ofc. condiments, it changes from kiosk to kiosk so in general no two places sell the exact same lihapiirakka.

[@jemhams]

Karjalanpiirakka is indeed best enjoyed with egg butter or munavoi. To make it, simply smash together hard boiled eggs and butter with a fork. The ratio of butter to egg can be whatever you like and you can leave it very chunky or make it a smoother paste. Don't forget to add salt to taste 😋

[@catherinekayy]

ohh I kind of eat it right then! heheh it was super tasty i Wish i had it on the first day, that way I could of had it every day for breakfast hehe 😋

[@angusmacgyver]

@@catherinekayy I'm not sure but what you said was scrambled eggs might have been actually munavoi. Or did it read scrambled eggs?

[@Benderkekekekekeke]

@@angusmacgyver Scrambled eggs = munakokkeli. It's same as munavoi, but without butter.

[@angusmacgyver]

@@Benderkekekekekeke So very different in my mind. Munakokkeli is just eggs. And it's not boiled eggs but fried eggs.

[@tommiaijala2732]

That "squeky-cheese" is called Leipäjuusto (breadcheese) and you can buy it from most/all supermarkets in Finland (located in the cheese aisle), it's a perfect snack/dessert either warm or cold with either the traditional cloudberry or some other sweet jam.

[@catherinekayy]

Soooo delicious I honestly have never tried anything like it! It was so yummmmy ❤

[@mikkorenvall428]

[@valtterifani]

My little wish is that: When moving in an area where you have to walk on or near a highway, use a reflector. Even if you can see the car, it is not necessarily possible to see you from the car in the dark or at dusk. Especially a person wearing dark clothes is very difficult to spot on the side of the road. The reflector costs less than a euro, so it's really cheap life insurance. Another thing is that tourists are often needlessly worried about how long the shops are open. In Finland, grocery stores are usually always open at least from 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. and 7 days a week. There is also a grocery store at many gas stations that is open whenever the station is open.

[@jorluo]

Yep, reindeer meat has been eaten for a very long time. Reindeer herding was born a couple of thousand years ago at the latest. Then, since 1939, reindeer was instilled in people's minds as a fictional character connected to Santa Claus (Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer) in fairy-tales, picture books, cartoons, songs, movies, TV, etc. Numerous generations have grown up with that fictional Rudolph image and that's why so many find it weird to eat reindeer meat, even though they eat cow, pork, lamb and other animals at the same time.

[@formatique_arschloch]

Yes and reindeers roam freely in the nature. Unlike those other food sources you mentioned. I blame Disney for everything.

[@avgdotoenjoyer]

Glad to hear you enjoyed your stay and some of the foods here. Besides the winter wonderland setting, there's even more to experience in Finland during the (short) summer also if you want to consider it in the future. Loved your videos, safe travels to you!

I understand reindeer seems wrong but just remember we ear cow and pig and other animals as well. I an not a huge meat eater but i give you points for trying it. It just like when i held fossil dino poop, it seems weird but understandable lol

[@catherinekayy]

Lol Dino fossil poop 😂❤ this made me giggle! Yeah it is super strange but your right it was seen similar to cow; I think it’s just because it’s so different to what I’m used to!

[@rombbu3134]

And the reindeer roam freely when they grow, unlike cows or pigs. One of the most ethical meats, coming from a vegetarian 😄

[@empputornberg3035]

​@@rombbu3134 Yes reindeers roam freely in Lapland! If you drive a car in Lapland you can see reindeers everywhere.

[@ButterFly-zh8ho]

The "lihapiirakka" have always been one of my favorite dishes in the canteen in Finland, you could bring your own dishes and use the microwave, I brought some and it was very good, traditionally it is a doughnut , stuffed with a mixture of rice, minced veal and onions, the stuffing is cooked before making the lihapiirakka, it keeps well as it is pre-cooked.

[@tuopi3]

that salmon looked so good my mouth is watering

[@catherinekayy]

It was so so delicious! omg 😍

[@BiancaHaeckDesigns]

Woohoo!!! So glad you got to try these! Fazer is Finland's biggest brand, I'm sure you would also have liked to try the Geisha chocolates (my faves other than the Fazer (F-ah-ts-er) blue).The leipäjuusto is a big fave of mine too, it's versatile, you can have it with salty things or sweet! And lihapiirakka is definitely a common food here, we love it! XD Microwaving it is a totally normal way to heat them up, so no worries there. The riisipuuro (rice porridge) is a traditional xmas dish (but can be eaten all year round). The egg butter is basically just eggs mixed with butter and spread on the top of the karjalanpiirakka. It's delish, but also quite rich! Karjalanpiirakka can easily be eaten plain too, we often do that, it's a great snack. Also loved seeing more of Dean as well! I know he isn't super chatty, so it's nice to see him talking on some of these (yay Dean!).

[@catherinekayy]

Yummmyyy It is really delicious wish i eat it at the beginning of the trip hehe, that Fazer chocolate was SOOOOO good, we had them served with hot chocolates or coffees it was DELICIOUS

Also one last thing to mention is, I am a tea person, yet the best coffee I had is here in finland, if you could try some Finnish coffee you won't be disappointed, try korvapuusti as well with it, my fav combo 😋

Glögiä=mulled wine, you can make it yourself, for example; the base of mulled wine is grape juice, which is flavored with Christmas spices, cinnamon, cloves, cardamom and ginger. When the mulled wine has slowly boiled for about a quart and the spices have been filtered out of the drink, alcohol is added to the mulled wine, which is usually red wine. I personally buy glög from the store, which I heat up and add a cinnamon stick and a little vodka. ❤So I use it at mixer in winter time

Btw how Brits can eat ducks but not reindeers? Doesn't they think about eating Donald Duck. Just been curious about this forever and I live in Rovaniemi xD

[@catherinekayy]

[@samihyleh865]

Reindeer is just delight. One thing. I've never understand people who cover their mouth when they are eating.

Hello...you don't need paracetamol...it's killing your health...breath and water...a good sleep and cold shower...that's all you need.

[@heikkilaakso1899]

Just to correct, at huskys, that looked like berryjuice, not glöki! Berryjuice in finnish, is sekamehu, mixed juice.

[@tuplajuha]

Lihapiirakka and the the one you had there, nothing in comment. Sorry to say, but you just had the worst copy of that

[@catherinekayy]

It was tasty still though ehhehe 🤍🥹

[@ohKani]

What made you call Comico an asian cuisine place? Doesn't even remotely resemble an asian place

[@rokrokka7322]

Paracetamol. You must be kidding...

[@catherinekayy]

Is there something wrong with paracetamol? 🙈😭

[@mr.wizeguy8995]

Paracetamol is painkiller people here take paracetamol when they have fever aka flu aka cold not when they are feeling cold aka shivering from cold. If you feel cold wear warmer clothes dunno does that paracetamol even help with cold feeling never ever heard someone taking it for cold feeling.

[@PeterCulley]

Love 🤍 You can buy Glogg from IKEA. Usually at this time of year from the Swedish food market. We definitely had it when I worked at the Leeds store. I also drink hot Ribena with honey which is amazing and similar xxx

[@catherinekayy]

[@PeterCulley]

That's interesting! Yeah, here in Lapland every shop sells them in milk cartons and throughout the year.

[@nelsonvalencia7889]

Karjalanpiirakka is indeed best enjoyed with egg butter or munavoi. To make it, simply smash together hard boiled eggs and butter with a fork. The ratio of butter to egg can be whatever you like and you can leave it very chunky or make it a smoother paste. Don't forget to add salt to taste 😋
