The layers are carefully arranged to create a visually appealing and flavorful dish. Pealtpoolt is often served with a side of rye bread or a salad, and it is a popular choice for both everyday meals and special occasions. The dish is a staple in Estonian cuisine and is enjoyed for its hearty and comforting flavors.
