Helsinki: Private Traditional Finnish Cooking Class

Dive into Finnish culture through food with this Private Traditional Finnish Cooking Class in Helsinki, a 4-hour hands-on experience led by your own private chef in a cozy kitchen setting. You'll learn to prepare a full Finnish meal from scratch, choosing from a variety of authentic dishes like creamy salmon or mushroom soup, Karelian pies with egg butter, Finnish meatballs with mushroom sauce, or salmon steak with dill sauce and roasted root vegetables. For dessert, you might make a traditional oven pancake with berries or try the much-loved Lappish squeaky cheese with cinnamon cream and cloudberry jam. Whether you opt for rich flavours or lighter bites, the class is tailored to your tastes—with vegan options available upon request. It’s a fun, relaxed way to explore Finnish traditions, guided by a local who shares both recipes and stories along the way.
