Finnish oven pancake
March 6th, 2019 | main dishes
The Finns know how to do it! This fine Scandinavian pancake is served with smoked salmon, fresh herbs and horseradish cream. It is not made in a pan, but in a baking dish in the oven – how convenient!
No grease on the stove, nobody has to fry while the others are already tucking away the fresh pancakes. The Finnish version is ready after 20 minutes in the oven! So easy!

A beautiful and strong coffee, anyone? Then, after a substantial meal, this specialty from the Piedmont is the right! In Piedmont, this pudding is called also Bonèt, because its form probably reminds something to a hat or a chef’s hat. Another story around the Bonèt comes from the Langhe. It states that one puts so to speak “a hat” – a crown – on dinner with this dessert. Anyhow, it tastes excellently and even better when prepared the day before. Incredibly handy when you expect guests.
PS: The Vanilla Quinces are a perfect match!
