Hey!
In Finland, the Sunday before Shrove Tuesday ("Laskiaistiistai") is called "Laskiaissunnuntai".
While both of them are called "Laskiainen", we do enjoy and celebrate them both with "Laskiaispulla".
Laskiaispulla // Fat Tuesday bun // Shrove bun
(It's a normal bun with almonds on top, and almond paste (or marzipan), or raspberry jam and whipped cream in between the cap and the rest of the bun.)
Other traditional Shrove dishes include Shrove Tuesday's pea soup punched up with the left-over ham that's been in the freezer since the previous Christmas.
On "Laskiainen", people would normally go outside, and enjoy winter activities like tobogganing and downhill skiing among other things.
We would, however need some snow.
It was good though... the bun I mean.
See you Tomorrow in the next post! 😁
Like my post? 🍻 Buy me a beer! 🍻
Looking very interesting and delicious!! You shouldn’t eat this as you are going to the gym! Send them my way! I’ll eat them for you!
Oh noes, I did eat one. I was adviced by @omsoc not to, but I am still a bit too weak against these kinds of temptations. 😑
If I were you I would have two!! You are stronger than me!!
We also celebrate Shrovetide, it will be held on March 1, the last Sunday of winter. All week people bake pancakes :)
Are you team marzipan or team jam? I'm jam and I've yet to have my laskiaspulla for this year!
I can't eat any marzipan, cherries, or persipan... They all have this particular aroma, that triggers vomiting. Later it's gotten less obvious (I can eat some cherry candies without getting oozy), but still kind of a problem. It's a mystery to me, why though.
My wife forthput an idea, that I might in some previous life have been poisoned with cyanide. (Now I am not religious or even spiritual these days, but that suggestion does certainly have an appeal.)
It's a bit sad though, that I have to be the only one in our family who can't eat the marzipan stuff.
I love the top of bun, its look delicious and take this one like a fresh morning breakfast.
