Ruskea Kastike, or Finnish brown sauce, is a traditional gravy often used in Finnish cuisine to complement meats, potatoes, or casseroles. Made from butter, flour, and liquid—typically milk or broth—it has a rich, velvety texture and a savory taste. Some recipes include a hint of sugar, cream, or seasoning to enhance flavor. While Ruskea Kastike is a comforting and versatile sauce, its nutritional profile varies based on ingredients. High in calories due to butter and flour, it provides a source of energy but can be heavy on saturated fats. Using broth instead of milk or cream can improve its health aspects by reducing fat content. Commonly paired with hearty Finnish dishes, this sauce offers a cultural connection to traditional Nordic cooking but should be consumed in moderation for a balanced diet.
