vesisessä

Vesisesse is a traditional Estonian dish that translates to "in water" in English. It is a hearty stew made with a variety of ingredients, typically including potatoes, carrots, and sometimes other root vegetables. The dish is cooked in a large pot with water, which is then reduced to a thick, creamy consistency. The name "vesisesse" comes from the method of cooking, where the ingredients are simmered in water until they become tender and the liquid evaporates.

The dish is often served with a side of rye bread, which helps to soak up the remaining liquid. Vesisesse is a popular dish during the colder months in Estonia, as it is a comforting and nourishing meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. The dish is also a staple in Estonian cuisine, and it is often served at family gatherings and special occasions.

Despite the variations, vesisesse remains a beloved dish in Estonian culture, and it is a testament to the country's rich culinary heritage.
