Learn to cook an authentic Finnish home-style meal during a 3-hour training in a cozy home setting. Make creamy salmon soup, meatballs, and cinnamon buns, and enjoy the meal together with the group.
Learn to cook a delicious Finnish home-style meal in a cozy home on the beautiful island of Lauttasaari, also known as “the happy island.” Get an authentic glimpse into the Finnish lifestyle, local traditions, and everyday culture while using fresh, seasonal ingredients.

Agenda:
1. We'll start with welcoming drinks and meet your host. Learn the recipes and get to know the group.
2. Prepare a starter by learning to cook a traditional creamy salmon soup.
3. Next, make the main course: Finnish meatballs, creamy mashed potatoes, and lingonberry jam.
4. Roll and bake korvapuusti, the beloved Finnish cinnamon bun, for dessert.
5. Lastly we´ll enjoy the meal we created together, and taste local delicacies like ruisleipä, saaristolaisleipä & Finnish sweets.

During the experience, food will be prepared together in small groups and each participant will take responsibility for one dish and enjoy what others have created. Your host will have everything ready upon your arrival and will provide clear step-by-step guidance, on-site support, and written recipes so you can easily recreate the dishes at home.

No prior cooking experience is required, although basic kitchen skills (such as handling a knife safely, chopping ingredients, and being careful around hot surfaces like the oven and stove) are recommended.
