    2:07 No, if you want to be Finnish you look at the nutrition information of the jams and choose the one with the least sugars per 100g, that way you get the realeast taste, with the sourness of the lingonberry not spoiled with too much sugar. Some lingonberry jams are so sweet that the pinaattiletut taste like a dessert, not good! If you want to be hardcore you instead of the jam just buy frozen lingonberries, melt them and crush/mush them slightly, adding perhaps a hint of sugar, that's puolukkasurvos.

    Lovely video. It's always nice to see two different followed youtubers in the same video. A good another example of that was eg. when Dave Cad and Luke Bland went to Lapland together.

    Blood pancakes (veriletut) next? :D BTW, I have found every single store-bought lingonberry jam to be _way_ too sweet for my taste. I think the best combo is Ikea's lingonberry jam and home made stuff (which by itself is very sour and acidic) in 50/50 ratio. I would probably puke if I had to eat spinach pancakes with maple syrup or apple sauce...

    yeah, storebought lingoberry jam is very sweet, which i do like, but when my mom did homemade, she used much less sugar. I enjoy both variants, but i'm too lazy to make my own jam :)

    @@valveillen I'm lazy as well, and would _happily_ pay for lingonberry jam that suits my taste, but I just haven't found any (and I have tried _several_ brands). Everything is just way, way too sweet, but, when mixed with the 'raw' jam my mother makes (I reckon it's just smashed berries with some added sugar), I get exactly what I like. Which is nice.

    I prefer strawberry or raspberry jam with all kinds of pancakes even it includes spinach or carrot. I think a Finnish "pannukakku" is usually made in the way that you put a batter on oven tray and let it bake in oven for 30 minutes. It's more simple way to do it and you can cut it in 9 big pieces when it's ready. A thin batter cake fried in a pan is usually called a crêpe, and there are several Finnish words for it like "ohukainen" (most formal word), "lettu" and "räiskäle".

    I'd say fish soup in any form is very finnish. Today the Salmon soup is most common in commercial cafes as it's always available from the fish farms. but fishermen do make soup out of pike, perch or burbot. Burbot is a special delicacy as it's very rarely available.

    i can also quickly feel the energy of a place or a country and say if i would be comfortable living there or not. I am also a more reserved type of finnish, not to mention an introvert, so i would tire up quickly in a more extroverted country like the US
