Karjalanpiirakka
Karjalanpiirakka, which has a very unique shape, is a kind of tart and pastry.
So what exactly is Karjalanpiirakka?
This food was born in the Karelian region in the east of Finland, and contains rice porridge, mashed potatoes, etc. in a thin dough. a kind of tart that is put in a mixture and baked in the oven. In the original, the dough is made only of rye flour, but today it is usually prepared with a mixture of rye / bran flour or rye / white flour, but it is still possible to find the exact rye ones.
Since the production of Karelian tart is a bit troublesome, it is usually taken from the bakery department of the markets, cafes or frozen food departments. Even if you cook at home, you get a great well done especially from Finnish friends! I always say: food is the best cultural integration tool!
When we did not try Karjalanpiirakka, we found its taste great. I also like the Karelian tart plain. However, it is usually applied either a poached egg-butter mixture on the tart or cheese, tomato, cucumber etc. putting is also refreshing.
