I was introduced to these delicious traditional Finnish pies a few years ago when we enjoyed a traditional Finnish Christmas Eve feast at our friends’ Ulla and Kurt’s home in Canberra. They are just as yummy cold as they are warm and especially good with the chopped hard boiled egg butter. Now thanks to our Finnish connections we get to enjoy these Karelian pastries at least once or twice a year but I haven’t had the recipe until now. And so now I know that it’s the involvement of a lot of butter that makes them so delicious, Thanks http://www.londoneats.wordpress.com
