They cover nearly all the traditional Christmas food from Finland. Recipes are true to those my mother and grandmother used to make.

Especially recommended for family and community multi-ethnic cookbook collections.
3 Nov 2007
In "A Finnish Christmas Cookbook: Recipes And Traditions From The Old Country", long-time Wisconsin residents Sargit Warriner and Liisa Krumsieg have collaborated to compile and organize the recipes for a series of time-honored and Christmas season appropriate dishes from the culinary heritage of Finland that would grace any family meal or celebratory occasion. Also featured along with the ethnic cuisine, are the Christmas traditions of Finland. From Kotikalja (Homemade Beer); Suolattu lohi (Salted Salmon); Imelletetty perunalaatikko (Sweetened Potao Casserole); and Luumukiisseli (Prune Pudding); to Karinin voirinkilat (Karin's Butter Rings); Jouhatortut (Christmas Tarts); Sekahedelmakeitto (Mixed Fruit Soup); and Kola karamellit (Kola Candies), "A Finnish Christmas Cookbook" is a simply wonderful compendium of kitchen cook friendly recipes that even the most novice of family chefs can accomplish with ease. Of special note are the traditional menus described and offered, as well as a handy Recipe Index. "A Finnish Christmas Cookbook" is especially recommended for family and community multi-ethnic cookbook collections.

Excellent book, approved by my Finnish mother-in-law

I bought this book to cook Finnish christmas food as my in-laws were coming over to our house in CA from Finland. We actually used the recipes and the food turned out very good. I showed the book to my mother-in-law who is an excellent cook and she said that the book was very good. I highly recommend this book to anyone who has finnish relatives or just want to cook Finnish foods for Christmas.

A great gift

I purchased this book for my granddaughter who is a newlywed in Finland. She is so eager to embrace the culture and her new life, but she didn't speak Finnish. I thought she would like a recipe book of Finnish treats in her own language. She tells me she cooked a big dinner for her in-laws. I hope this book helped make the dinner a success.
