tuletule

Tuletule is a traditional Estonian dish that has been a staple in Estonian cuisine for centuries. It is a hearty soup made from a variety of ingredients, including potatoes, carrots, onions, and sometimes other vegetables like cabbage or beets. The soup is typically cooked with a combination of pork and beef bones, which provide a rich and savory flavor. The dish is often served with a side of boiled potatoes or bread, and it is commonly enjoyed during the colder months of the year.

The name "tuletule" translates to "fire fire" in English, which is believed to have originated from the sound of the crackling fire used to cook the soup. The dish is typically prepared in large communal pots, often over an open fire, which adds to its rustic charm and communal aspect. Tuletule is not only a delicious and comforting meal but also a symbol of Estonian hospitality and tradition.

In recent years, tuletule has gained international recognition, with many restaurants and food enthusiasts around the world seeking to recreate this classic Estonian dish. Despite its simplicity, tuletule's unique blend of flavors and textures has made it a beloved dish both in Estonia and beyond.
