aineksi
Aineksi is a Finnish term that translates to "ingredient" or "component" in English. It broadly refers to any substance or element that forms part of a mixture, recipe, or composite material. The word is commonly used in culinary contexts, where aineksi refers to the individual food items that are combined to create a dish. For example, in a recipe for Karelian pasties, the dough and the rice porridge filling would both be considered aineksi.
Beyond cooking, aineksi can also be used in a more general sense to describe any constituent part
