Learn how to bake a traditional Finnish blueberry rye pie, known as "savolainen mustikkakukko". Savolainen mustikkakukko has a protected geographical indication (PGI) granted by the EU. The workshop takes place in a 1700s log house in the Finnish countryside at Lake Saimaa with your me as your host, local grandmother Paula Okkola.
We'll make the dough, form the base, fill the pies with local blueberries and bake them together! This is small-group activity so I have time for everyone individually. The workshop space is a quiet, private place. Whilst baking, I'll tell you about the history and culture around Finland, lake Saimaa and my personal stories. We can discuss together about things that interest you and maybe we'll learn something new together about each others cultures!
In the end, we'll enjoy the pies together with some vanilla sauce and coffee/tea around my family table. You will get the pies you baked to-go, the recipe and of course new memories to take home with you!

1) First, I will welcome you at my home in our front yard. I will serve you a local non-alcoholic drink under a maple tree in our terrace or inside my house (depending on the weather). 2) We enter the workshop space. The workshop is held in a 1800s log cabin in my home. It is okay to film in my home. The room is a private, quiet space. I'll give you an apron for the duration of the workshop to keep your clothes clean and to set the mood for proper baking! 3) We’ll get to the main event of the day and start baking traditional savolainen mustikkakukko (blueberry rye pie) together! We'll make the base dough together, fill the pies and cover the pies with more dough. I’ll instruct, advise and demonstrate. There are maximum 10 persons in the whole group so I have time for everyone also individually. 4) We'll put the mustikkakukkos in the oven to bake. I will tell you about local life and history of Puumala, lake Saimaa area and Finland. We can discuss together and you can ask me questions. 5) In the end we’ll drink tea/coffee and eat blueberry rye pies with vanilla sauce / ice cream together. You will get the pies you baked to go, the recipe, a new talent and many memories with you!
