  1. One of the first things my husband here in finland taught me how to make. Basically the same recipe you posted here. We just mix it all up and add more butter till it looks good. So yummy on rye bread or warm korilean pastries.
     
  2. I wonder if using a high quality butter is the key. To me this tasted like butter and eggs...not bad, not fantastic. The main drawback for me is that room temperature in my winter Alaskan house is 59F...and the softened butter firms up as soon as it's mixed with the eggs...never to attain a spreadable consistency.
     
  3. If my eggs have boiled a bit too long for soft, this is what I do with them. Who knew I was eating Finnish? LOL So smooth and yummy.
     
  4. It doesn't get easier than this! DD helped me make it and the little one gave us a hand (she kept tasting it with her fingers) as well. Made for ZWT6
     
  5. Super quick and easy to make. I did use some salt, and spread over toast.

Tweaks

  1. The traditional Finnish recipe is significantly richer than this... A more "typical" recipe would be 3 finely chopped eggs to a full cup of butter. For Americans, this sounds terrifyingly "fatty", but Scandinavian food are rich ah sustaining for the bitter winters. You also adjust the salt and gently season with finely ground white pepper and ground ginger. I'm sure this recipe is tasty, but it's a much less traditional ratio.
