kesäruokaa -- summer food

kuivasin osan timjamista kun alkoi kamalasti rehottamaan. ihmettelen koska on ihan vain kaupasta ostettu pienessä multapaakussa kasvava.

i dried part of the thyme because it started to grow a lot. i'm surprised because it's bought from the grocery store and it grows in a tiny pot.

M osti puoli kiloa uusia perunoita. maistelimme niitä tämän yksinkertaisen ja kesäisen reseptin muodossa. silli oli ahti perhesilli. sen kai voi maun mukaan valita.

M bought half a kilo of new potatoes. we were tasting them in the form of this simple and summery recipe. the herring was ahti perhesilli. i guess everybody can choose the one they like. (the recipe basically has boiled new potatoes (hot) mixed with butter, spring onion, thinly sliced mild cheese, herring, salt and pepper).

laitoin voin päälle jo tässä vaiheessa, koska lapset söivät perunansa näin. omine lisukkeinensa.

i put the butter on the potatoes already at this point because the children had their potatoes like this. with their own side dishes.

olipas hyvää! suosittelen kokeilemaan. juusto tuo kivan vivahteen. ei ollenkaan raskaaksi tehnyt. laitoin tosin itse aika vähän sitä, vain kaapista löytyneen oltermanninjämän. söin juuri jääkaappikylmänä loput smör ost och sillit. vielä niinkin oikein hyvää.

how good it was! i recommend trying it out. the cheese gave a nice addition to the flavor. it didn't make it heavy. i actually didn't put 50 g of cheese, only the oltermanni cheese leftovers we had. i just had the rest of the 'smör ost och sill' (butter, cheese and herring in swedish, this is a swedish recipe). very good also as fridge cold.
