About Riisipiirakka
Riisipiirakka, known as Karelian rice pie, is a traditional Finnish delicacy from the Karelia region. It consists of a thin rye crust filled with creamy rice porridge, creating a savory and satisfying treat. Often enjoyed with egg butter, a mixture of hard-boiled eggs and butter, this pie is a staple in Finnish cuisine, especially during celebrations and holidays. The pie is relatively low in fat and sugar, making it a wholesome option compared to many pastries. Its rye-based crust adds fiber and nutrients, while the rice filling provides a source of energy through carbohydrates. However, egg butter may increase calorie and fat content, so it's best consumed in moderation. Riisipiirakka highlights Finland's emphasis on simple yet nourishing foods rooted in age-old traditions. Perfect as a snack or part of a meal, it offers a glimpse into the hearty flavors of Finnish cooking.
