Finnish Summer Food
Fresh, simple and local.
While Finnish winter staples, such as hearty stews, keep us warm during the cold months, we prefer our summer food to be light, fresh and easy to prepare. Our cold climate gives us slow growing but intensely flavoured fresh produce. From the new potatoes of spring to the late summer berries, the tastes are pure and unique. The simpler life at the summer cottage and the closeness of nature make this a time of fresh, simple and local food.
