Mustamakkara is actually pretty tasty. Local delicacy of Tampere. Lipeäkala, (or lutfisk in Swedish) is just as horrible as the Norwegian lutefisk. Then there's mämmi, which is a easter time desert, worth a try. And yes, we have pretty nice wild berries. And the Christmas dishes are pretty good too. Ham, and root fruit casseroles (rutabaga, carrot and potato mainly) are things found on almost every Finns Christmas table. Some also eat macaroni casserole or liver casserole at that time, but they're not on our menu. And roe is a favorite as well. And rosolli, sort of a salad made with cooked and cubed carrot, apple and beetroot, served with pink whipped cream. You can also add some herring to it, making it a sillisalaatti.
