Wild Food from Finland
Wild food – berries, mushrooms, wild herbs and vegetables as well as
fish, game and reindeer – is derived straight from Arctic Finnish
nature.

a restaurant.
Finnish salmon soup is a quick everyday meal, but also a beloved dish
for guests. Enriched with cream cheese, you'll get a wonderfully creamy
soup. Serve it with authentic rye bread. With a little variation, you
can make fish soup: replace the cream with dill-flavored cream cheese,
it adds acidity to the dish.
