Salaatti is a fresh and vibrant Finnish salad typically served as a side dish or light accompaniment. Its name translates simply to "salad" in Finnish. Traditionally, it consists of diced vegetables like cucumber, tomatoes, and bell peppers, often combined with lettuce or cabbage for added crunch. Sometimes grated carrots or a tangy vinegar-based dressing are included to enhance flavor and texture. Salaatti is a nutrient-rich dish, packed with vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber from its fresh, raw ingredients, making it a heart-healthy option. It is low in calories and fat, making it ideal for weight management and promoting overall wellness. While it’s generally very healthy, richer variations featuring creamy dressings or cheese may add extra calories and saturated fats. Salaatti highlights the Scandinavian focus on simplicity, freshness, and clean eating, offering a healthy complement to heartier Finnish meals.
