Him actually pronouncing "lohikeitto" perfectly caught me off guard. Like that was native level pronunciation. It's always incredibly cool to hear people pronounce Finnish stuff right, since this is a difficult language for most.

The way my aunt used to make it is with a clear broth, no milk or cream. She was a trained line chef and was influenced by restaurant style food. My father learned from her and at our house the salmon soup was always clear. I don't mind either way but slightly prefer the clear version because the salmon taste comes through more clearly. Which ever way is fine.

I have to say that there is some extraordinary beauty when traditional simple and humble Finnish food is served and enfused with such strong Japanese aesthetic and tradition. I can't explain it, but for some reason Finnish and Japanese cultures, traditions and even foods complement each other very nicely when mixed like this. One is so very humble and simple and the other is so polite and spiritual that there is almost no clash, or overlap, they just fuse together naturally. No wonder there's a certain kindrid spirit between our people despite the vast differences.

The more I've made and tasted Japanese food, the more I'm convinced that there is some kind of shared base roots to make foods in both countries. Like Finnish Pulla (sweet bun) is made like Japanese Hokkaido Milk Bread, Finnish version is only more sweet. Also the use of pickled vegetables/fish dishes are so similar. The combination of dishes from both countries are just delicious.

Also both are phonetic languages and languages are quite close to each other in general, at least in my opinion(not written one of course); meaning of the words may be vastly different, but there are some that sound exactly the same. Also some names, though I think genders are often swapped and in Finnish names most often don't mean anything, but have been around for some time and these days a lot of names have roots outside Finland's very own history, but have quite the Finnish twist to them, both in written and pronunciation, and of course it's because Finnish is Finnic and/or Finno-Ugric language.

I prefer soup without carrots. Also the allspice should be whole in my opinion, it gives slighty mellowel taste. I also make own broth when cooking lohikeitto from leftovers from preparing fish (spine and head). If you want to tune up the traditional recipe, try adding little bit of fresh fennel. Fresh, not dried and ground, not the seeds. It gives very nice flavour. My little secret. 😎

@liljasyysvaara3596 6 ай бұрын

Salmon soup is one of those things where there no ”correct” recipe. It often depends on the area and the family where the recipe is coming from. Neither putting carrots or leaving them out is wrong. You can choose which way is to your liking. I personally enjoy the veri slight sweetness that the carrots add to the soup.

In Norway similar soups are usually made with cod instead of salmon, or both, depending on region. Shrimp is sometimes used as garnish. I don't think potatoes are commonly added but, as in Finland, everyone has their own version of it.

Salmon wasn't big thing in Finland before the seventies when we started to get Norwegian salmon to our stores, it was mainly baltic herring/(strömming) we ate and common lake fishes iirc and I bet that was the case in Sweden, too, of course you guys were more well off back then, but I bet that Norwegian trade might have made that more possible for you guys also. For the likability of the dish in Japan, I'd say that Japanese have really good understanding of the ingredients. The food isn't "hot and spicy", it's more bringing about the flavours of different ingredients.

Christmas rice porridge! Use round rice (sushi rice?), water, salt, milk. Serve with ground cinnamon and sugar and milk. For six servings (small) use 2,5 dl rice, 5 dl water and 1,5 - 2 tsp salt. Make in a big pot, make the water boil, and put on lowest temperature (dont rinse the rice, unless you really have too). Let simmer for 10 minutes under a lid. Then add 8-9 dl heavy milk, first on high for some bubbles, then the lowest setting again for 35-45 minutes under a lid. Maybe stir a couple of times while making. It should be thick. Then serve with traditional cinnamon and sugar, topped with milk, or milk on the side.

Siksi puuroriisin koostumus muuttuu tahmaiseksi ja mureaksi ja niistä vapautuu reilusti tärkkelystä veteen._ _- Tällaiset riisilajikkeet sopivat hyvin sushiin, riisipuuroon ja risottoon, sillä nämä ruokalajit vaativat riisiltä tahmeutta, Campos sanoo."_

@jenniheinanen8434 6 ай бұрын

Nothing like hot salmon soup on a cold day as comfort food. Simplicity in seasonings gives room for veggies and salmon to bring in their own flavor. And with cream you get that fullness and roundness of flavor that is hard to replicate. And soups are even better when you re-heat them next day. It's nice to see people from other cultures enjoying the (deceptively) simple nordic cuisine.

@Mirrekala 6 ай бұрын

I personally often use milk because I don't have cream in the fridge as default. And compensate with a good piece of butter to replace the fat. Works as well. Aldo as personal choice I don't use onion or dill, but that is just my taste. I also like to buy a whole salmon and make a broth from the bones and skin. Makes it taste so rich. You are allowed to make adjustments to taste in this kind of food! Your soup looks so tasty! Well done!

When my grandma used to make lohikeitto, she would use Knorr Aromat instead of regular salt, and she put the salmon in with the skin. If you don't like the skin, it is easily peeled off of the cooked salmon. When my dad makes lohikeitto, he often puts in rutabaga as well. Also, it's common to use leeks instead of regular white onion. In Finland, you can just buy "keittojuurekset", which will include carrot, leek, rutabaga and parsnip. I find that the whole allspice peppercorns in the soup are nice, because biting into one adds a small but strong bit of spice to that spoonful of soup. You did a great job, and you picked a very good dish to make. Lohikeitto is just about as Finnish as it gets. It's simple, but tasty. It's a family meal, and it's great for cold weather.

Even if you used just potato and cream it's gonna be good. A tip for the salmon skin: put the salmon in a tray skin faced up, pour boiling water over it --> the skin will come off in 20seconds on it's own

Strain off remains from the water before using the water to the soup. You can also poach the dry skin of the onion and other vegetable parts you don't want to eat with fish remains to get more flavour and nutrients. In Finland the allspice is usually whole berries, not crushed.

A lot of hard work with the breads and the seasonings. Lovely film.The simplest of soups can be not-so-easy to make. I'll make you salmon soup when you come back to Finland. Got a couple of simple secrets for the soup.

As a Finn: great work! I would have preferred fresh rye bread with the soup personally but I guess it's hard to find that in Japan. I think you could bake some "saaristolaisleipä" if you can find some rye flour, Valio seems to have a pretty simple receipe but it still takes 4 hours. That's not a small task so it might be a good idea to bake the bread one day and make the soup the next day. The "saaristolaisleipä" should be okay to keep in a fridge for a day or two.

This is so beautiful to see, I do like to add the dill earlier so the soup get´s more of that flavor, and then top more on the soup, and ofc have more potatoes and carrots in it. But this looks so good =)

I normally use leek in stead of onion so I can bypass the whole sauteeing step! Just add chopped leek in the water and bring to a boil. In case someone wants to save themselves like... Two minutes 😂 And I've never used allpice, just white pepper! So I learned something today, will try that next time we make lohikeitto! Overall, well done! 🙏

looks great! personally i like to add a lot of lemon pepper, the acidity pairs really well with the salmon!

Nice simple way of making the soup. Two improvement ideas: the stems of the dill could be boiled with the veggies to have dill taste in the broth, and discarded before service. Also one could make a quick fish sock out of the skins. More taste, less waste.

I'm Finnish and I love lohikeitto. I also like Japan very much and would love to visit some day. Seeing this simple but precious dish getting so much appreciation over there made me smile and actually brought a little tear in my eye. And I could tell it was delicious by just looking at it. Thank you for this video!

I admire japanese cousine a lot so it made me slightly nervous that the same table would have our humble finnish dish. I hope your family enjoyed the eating experience
