Pintatulokset
Pintatulokset, also known as "pintatulkku" or "pintatulkut," are a type of traditional Finnish sausage made from pork. The name "pintatulokset" translates to "piglets" in English, reflecting the sausage's small size and tender texture. The sausage is typically made from the shoulder or belly of the pig, which is ground and mixed with various spices, including black pepper, nutmeg, and sometimes cloves. The mixture is then stuffed into natural casings, usually made from the pig's intestine, and smoked over wood chips, often using birch or apple wood, to give it a distinctive flavor.
Pintatulokset are often served as a cold cut, sliced thinly and accompanied by mustard or a tangy
Today, pintatulokset are still widely available in Finnish markets and are often produced by local butchers
