Keskittimestä

Keskittimestä is a traditional Finnish dish that has been a staple in Finnish cuisine for centuries. The name "keskittimestä" translates to "middle of the meat," referring to the way the meat is cooked. The dish is typically made with pork, but beef or game can also be used. The meat is first boiled in a large pot with vegetables such as potatoes, carrots, and onions. Once the meat is cooked, it is removed and the cooking liquid, known as "keskittimestäliemi," is strained and reduced to a thick gravy. The meat is then sliced and served with the gravy, often accompanied by boiled potatoes and other side dishes. The dish is known for its rich, hearty flavor and is often served during special occasions and holidays. Keskittimestä is a comforting and satisfying dish that showcases the simplicity and depth of Finnish cooking.
