This dish requires 1-2 kg potatoes (depends on a persons, who are going to eat, number), 2 eggs, 1-2 onions, some salt, pepper and a pan with a heated oil. You need to grate potatoes, to add two eggs, two grated or choped onions, add salt and pepper and to bake in the pan. It can be served with sour cream or mushroom sauce.]]> 2019-12-11 05:47:53 UTC https://padlet.com/rita100/65mnqvdixhx2/wish/422568408 Anu https://padlet.com/rita100/65mnqvdixhx2/wish/425803479 Presentation of very popular candy/ flavor in Finland. There is also a special liqueur made of it.]]> 2019-12-19 08:31:01 UTC https://padlet.com/rita100/65mnqvdixhx2/wish/425803479 Tiina https://padlet.com/rita100/65mnqvdixhx2/wish/426938796 Rye bread is one of the very basics in Finnish food culture, and also the item many Finns take with them when they travel. "Jälkiuuni" in the name  means that the bread has been baked slowly in the oven in "leftover heat" after some other cooking. Originally this would be a big loaf of very dark bread, but now we have a modernised version in the form of bread chips - with the same wonderful taste, but easy to take with you. What we will have with it will depend on what Finnish canned stuff I can find at the airport shops at 5 am. Fish is a strong candidate.]]> 2019-12-28 11:42:09 UTC https://padlet.com/rita100/65mnqvdixhx2/wish/426938796 Natalija https://padlet.com/rita100/65mnqvdixhx2/wish/427593617 SKILANDIS is a Lithuanian matured sausage made of meat, fat, salt, pepper and garlic. The ground meat is traditionally pressed into a pig‘s stomach or bladder, bet today may be contained in other skins. The sausage is dried and cold-smoked. Skilandis dates back to least the 16th century – the word „skilandis“ is referred to in documents from various locations across the Grand Duchy of Lithuania as early in the 16-18th centuries.
The term „skilandis“ has protected status under European Union law. It is added to the list of Protected Designation of origin.

The town is known in Germany because the famos Dutsch painter Peter Paul Rubens was born in Siegen in 1577. That is why Siegen is called the "Rubensstadt" (Rubenstown). Since than people create different sweets and call them after Rubens.
I´ve brought a cake that is verry liked in Siegen and is called "Rubenstorte" (Rubenscake). It is made with flower, butter, eggs, sugar, red wine, raspery jam and marzipan.

It is often made today with a combination of rye flour and whole rye grains.
At one time it was traditional peasant fare, but largely during the 20th century various forms became popular through delicatessens and supermarkets.
