      5-0 out of 5 stars Wonderful
      The recipes in this book are very easy to follow and the end result turns out fantastic! The book uses the American, not metric system to measure recipes. There is also a wide variety of recipes so there is something for everyone. I highly recommend.

      This is a good book with all the favorite meals thatFinnish Americans grew up with.

      4-0 out of 5 stars Just like Grandma's cooking...
      I have tried for years to duplicate my Finnish grandmother's cooking.Asking for her recipes is hopeless...in her mind she just throws things in a pan and they come out that tasty.(She is constantly telling me it is not worth my time because her only secret is that Finnish cows, chickens, and fish are much happier and treated nicer than American animals, and therefore taste better.)This book is the first (and only, so far) Finnish recipe book I've found that carries many of our family's traditional recipes.It is easy to follow and I have had success with every recipe I have tried.

5-0 out of 5 stars Love this Cookbook
I love this book.When I married a Finn, (in 1980) his sister gave me this book. I've had it for years and use it whenever I need a Finnish recipe. According to my in-laws, the recipes are very authentic.I eventually bought both of my daughters the book for their cookbook collections.Make the Pulla (coffee bread) it's the best!

5-0 out of 5 stars Good Finnish Food
This is an excellent Finnish cookbook.My wife, who is of Finnish decent, has been thrilled with her copy.She says she has found many recipes that her mother and grandmother both used and it is especially fun to read the titles in the Finnish words she has known .We use a great deal of Finnish food in our daily diet, but there are a great many in this book that are yet to be tried.Beatrice Ojakangas deserves 5 stars for putting forth such a great book, and for mixing in a little of Finnish culture as a bonus.

5-0 out of 5 stars Finnish Cuisine and Culture
My first husband was a Finn, bred, born and raised, and often longed for the food of his youth.This book was invaluable; it had all the recipes for dishes that he missed, with instructions that let me turn out perfect pulla (a wonderful bread), kalakukko (rye bread stuffed with fish and bacon) and piirakka (rice or potato pasties) in record time.Some of the cultural information is a bit dated in my edition (I have the old 60s version), but it was still an interesting read.My daughters still make piirakka every Christmas Eve.

My edition has a typo that I hope has been corrected in the newer one.The recipe for lutefisk starts with "Take a large fried codfish..."It should, of course, be a large dried codfish.

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent selection of Finnish recipes from someone who knows...
This book is really a keepsake for the newest Finnish generations.I didn't have a recipe book from my grandparents or aunts, but there are so many things my grandmother made and she was also from Northern Minnesota.The only thing I wish it had more of was pictures, but the author is so knowledgeable, that this book is a must for the 3rd and 4th generation Finns.

5-0 out of 5 stars Finnish Home Cooking: The Real Thing
This book is an introduction to the Finnish kitchen.Ojakangas, a second generation Finnish-America, learned some traditional Finnish dishes from her grandmother.But when her husband was awarded a Fulbright grant in Finland for 1960-61, she was able to get make an intensive study of Finnish food culture.She discovered how some of the dishes she had learned to make as a child had roots deep in Finland, while others were presumably American creations.In this collection of recipes, Ojakangas focuses on the foods found on Finnish tables, although she does include some of the Finnish American traditions that have become standard in Finnish-American culture.

The book makes fascinating reading, for Ojakangas provides not only the common recipes, but she also includes with each recipe a brief description of how the dish fits into the context of the daily diet.Rather than following the standard American cookbook organization of appetizers and soups, main dishes, sides dishes, and desserts, Ojakangas pay close attention to which types of foods are most important for Finns and how they are used together.With this in mind, the book begins with breads, moves on to the coffee table (mainly cookies and cakes), pastries (both sweet and savory), soups, fish, meat dishes (heavy on the liver, pork, and sausage, and very little chicken), vegetables and salads (mostly roots, very little greenery), desserts (fruit soups and porridges), dairy and eggs, beverages, sauces, and sandwiches (open-faced). At the end of the book is a chapter with suggested menus for special occasions and a selected reading list and bibliography.

This is the best and most authentic Finnish cookbook that I've come across in English.I've tried out a few Finnish American cookbooks, and although their recipes may be tasty, they often are distinctly American in flavor, with many more ingredients like green vegetables than one would ever find in Finland.In this book, we find recipes for all the Finnish standards, for everything from kalakukko to maksalaatikko, from mämmi to sima.Ojakangas provides both the Finnish and English names for each dish; although the Finnish is generally quite accurate, there are a few typos.(I stared at "valdemariisi" for quite some time before I realized it should have been written "vadelmariisi", or raspberry rice.)

The culinary descriptions make this book great reading for anyone contemplating visiting or living in Finland for an extended period.I sure wish I had read it before heading off to study in Finland as an exchange student.The first week I arrived in the country, my host-mother showed me around the kitchen and told me to make myself at home.Then she went off to work in Helsinki for the week, and I was left to fend for myself along with her teenage daughters.By the end of the week, I was starving, having consumed all the food that was familiar to me in the first few days.When my host-mother returned from Helsinki and heard that I had reported there was no food in the house, she became very upset, and showed me a large sack of potatoes and other mysterious food stores.At the time, although I was an decent pasta cook and could make some passable stir-fried vegetables, I had never cooked a potato in my life-nor did I know what to do with any of the other foods in the kitchen.I didn't know what Finns ate or when they ate it, so I was completely at a loss when left to feed myself in a Finnish kitchen. A thorough reading of this book before leaving home would have provided a great preparation for what I would find in Finland.I would not have been so surprised by the dark chewy breads, the early meal times, and the importance of lunch and coffee-hour rather than dinner and dessert. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Finnish Recipes and Traditions
Sinikka Grönberg Garcia, author of Suomi Specialties: Finnish Celebrations, Traditions and Recipes, claims to be mostly Finn even though she has lived in the United States for over forty years. A Karelian refugee from the 1941 Russian-Finnish War, she says her bond to Finnishness grew through the hardships as well as good times.

This book presents the traditions and customs that represent a national pride and fortitude. Told with warmth, Sinikka's memories lend an understanding to what it means to be a Finnish American.

Along with the ways and means of holidays, customs, and celebrations, traditional recipes are included with helpful hints and significance of the foods of the season....Pulla for Christmas, Mämmi for Easter, Sima for Vappu, and others.

Sections on a brief history of the people; travel in Finland, and the many music festivals characterize the Finnish people's love for the arts.

Drawings by Jukko Mannio, Finnish artist, capture the spirit of celebration throughout the book.

Product Description
Simply Scandinavian presents modern takes on traditional Scandinavian recipes, combining time-tested Finnish food preparation with twenty-first century taste. The recipes are organized by time of year--appetizers, main courses, and desserts for Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter. The authors have arranged the book to take the reader through a year of Scandinavian recipes, pairing gorgeous four-color photographs of Finland's landscape--from the archipelago in the south to the harsh wilderness of Lapland--with mouthwatering food photography.

Many of the recipes open-mindedly integrate the past and the present, such as the recipe for rye cannelloni served in consomme; it contains a pinch of hard times in Finland, a dash of modern universal cooking, and a smidgeon of national romanticism. The shape comes from Italy, the filling from a Finnish meat pie, and the dough from the Karelian pastry from eastern Finland. Simply Scandinavian is a treat for adventuresome home cooks or anyone looking to escape into the beautiful landscapes and delectable flavors of Scandinavia. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Simply Scandinavian
I love food, so as soon as I saw the gorgeous piece of salmon nesting on a bed of greens on the cover of "Simply Scandinavian, Traveling In Time With Finnish Cuisine And Nature," I was excited to get my hands on a copy.While I have to admit I didn't have a clue about Finnish cuisine, that picture was enough to pique my interest.

I was thrilled when I discovered that this cookbook is more than a collection of Tero Kallio's recipes.It's a stunning book that will teach you a bit about Finland through images and food.Good food engages all of the senses and Kimmo Saira's pictures will have you drooling in anticipation as you flip through.Another thing I really appreciate is the way this collection is organized.Anyone who has had the pleasure of picking a tomato off of the vine in the summer can tell you the importance of eating seasonally and this book guides you through all four seasons on a culinary journey.

While pretty pictures are nice, what really counts in the end is the food you produce and both items I made were fantastic.Since it's been nearly 100 degrees every day, I started with the Lemon and Lime Sorbet, which was easy and refreshing.While I sadly couldn't track down the Sal Ammoniac squares need to make the accompanying sauce, it was fantastic by itself.Hopefully I can find that missing ingrediant in the future to enjoy it as intended by the author.Regardless, it was a quick and easy summer dessert.

I also couldn't resist trying the Grilled Raw Spiced Salmon with a green pea salad.It's a fantastic summer dinner because you don't need to turn on the stove for more than a couple of minutes.I loved the horseradish cream which is reminiscint of wasabi, but offered a fresh burst of flavor thanks to the green peas.

Both recipeswere easy to follow and the results were well received by everyone.The only thing I should point out for those of you who are used to American cookbooks is that the ingrediants are measured using the metric system.While nothing I made required exact measurement and I'm used to converting because of my work, you may have to take an extra five minutes to figure out how much of everything you'll need before starting for recipes requiring precision.From what I've made so far, it will be worth it!

After reading through this beautiful book and trying a couple of recipes, I'm sold on the food of Finland.While I most likely will not be serving Reindeer with Cloudberries at my next dinner party, there are a number of recipes I'm looking forward to trying out.Plus, even though some of the ingredients may be difficult to find here, I think the techniques and concepts will translate to my local ingredients just fine!

5-0 out of 5 stars The best gift for Scandinavian lovers
I recommend this book as a gift for anyone who is into Scandinavian culture, design, nature etc. The recipes are a great mixture of tradition and modern, and the pictures are absolutely beautiful. The book serves well as a coffee table book which people will love to flick through again and again but I warmly recommend trying out the recipes too, you will amaze your friends with these fantastic tastes and love the Scandinavian experience, I promise.

5-0 out of 5 stars A delectable look at Finnish cuisine
"Simply Scandinavian - Travelling in Time with Finnish Cuisine and Nature" by Tero Kallio and Kimmo Saira is a feast for the eyes and the stomach. The authors claim to take readers on a journey of two dimensions: tastes and time. Boy, do they succeed.

The gorgeous photography sets off the more than 40 recipes included in the book. Kallio and Saira divide the recipes by season, and further by appetizers, main courses and desserts, with accompanying photos of the recipes and Finnish scenery. The authors point out that "Simply Scandinavian" is a picture book and that the recipes, some of which combine the old and new, are mostly Finnish dishes with a smidgeon of Italian, Russian and other cuisines thrown in.

Readers will learn how to prepare dishes of reindeer, rabbit, salmon, crayfish, beef, lamp, cep mushrooms and more. I did have to look up some of the ingredients in the recipes because I was unfamiliar with them. With each recipe, the authors recommend a beverage ranging from pinot noir to champagne to cold milk to specialty drinks, etc. One of the recipes that sounds interesting is reindeer with cloudberries. I would like to try that someday if I were to visit Finland. Some of the dessert and drink recipes like the rhubarb smoothie and blueberry cheese-cake I may attempt to create at home.

In sum, "Simply Scandinavian" is a breathtaking picture book that readers will enjoy for both the recipes and photography. I recommend it wholeheartedly.

5-0 out of 5 stars A glimpse into Finland
Reviewed by Irene Watson for Reader Views (01/10)

I was totally mesmerized when I started flipping through the pages of this cookbook, "Simply Scandinavian," and all that would come out of my mouth was "WOW!"This is one of the most beautiful cookbooks I have encountered and I have seen and have many.But, there is more besides the beauty of the photographs; the recipes I tried so far are fantastic.

The first recipe I tried was "Rhubarb Smoothie."I was excited to see I could do more than just stew or make a pie out of rhubarb.Because of my lactose intolerance I was able to use goat yogurt and rather than sour milk I used coconut kefir. I don't believe the substitutions made any difference because the end result was to die for.

The second recipe I experimented with is "Dandelion Salad."Making my usual substitutions worked very well in this recipe also and the end result was very nice. The dressing is creamy, but light.

The third recipe I tried is "Pot-Roasted Mallard." Although I wasn't able to get a wild mallard, I purchased a fresh duck.I found it interesting the recipe called for juniper berries.I did have those on hand and know they are available at herb or health food stores.Simply exquisite.

I am looking forward to trying more of the recipes.As I skimmed the rest of the recipes in the book, I will venture to say most ingredients will be found in a kitchen pantry.

Aside from a wonderful collection of recipes "Simply Scandinavian" by Tero Kallio and Kimmo Saira offers the owner of the book a glimpse into Finland with a concise description and beautiful photos of elements in nature.It is very obvious both Kallio and Saira are dedicate to their craft and are willing to share it with others.Their creation is of coffee table book quality and when used will create adventure for the browser and harmony for the diner.What a wonderful gift this book would make to a chef or connoisseur of fine foods. ...

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.
