bakteerisukujen

Bakteerisukujen are a type of traditional Finnish dish, typically served during the Christmas season. The name "bakteerisukujen" translates to "bacteria stew" in English, which is a bit of a misnomer, as the dish does not contain any bacteria. Instead, it is a hearty stew made with a variety of ingredients, including potatoes, carrots, turnips, and sometimes even rutabaga. The dish is often flavored with onions, garlic, and spices such as bay leaves, black pepper, and sometimes even saffron. The stew is usually cooked in a large pot with plenty of water, and the ingredients are left to simmer until they are tender. Once cooked, the stew is often served with a side of rye bread and butter, and sometimes with a dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of chopped fresh dill. Bakteerisukujen is a comforting and nourishing dish, perfect for warming up on a cold winter's day.
