Jansson's Temptation (Janssons Frestelse)
We may never know who Jansson is, but Jansson's temptation (Janssons frestelse) is an absolute must on a cold and frigid evening. You might be put off by the inclusion of anchovies, but you will be really surprised at how well the saltiness of the fish works in this dish. If the anchovies are a definite 'no,' then substitute smoked salmon. It won't have the same saltiness in each bite, but the salmon can be just as delicious in its own right. This is the one recipe that I get requests for after parties and there is always an amusing display of disbelief afterwards when the inclusion of anchovies is revealed.
Taylor's Piroshki
These pirozhki have a beef, onion, and dill filling and are delicious. You could also add a little cheese to the filling if you like. They can also be baked. I received this recipe from my Russian language teacher in high school and have been making them ever since. The kids like them too! They take a little time to roll out — but then doesn't anything authentic take a little time?
Carrot Sweet Potato Muffins
Not super sweet, but just sweet enough, and you can barely discern the oats. Excellent as a side dish. Enjoy!
