Oh, here's the funny thing. In Finland we have a Christmas sweet called Piparkakku. It's called Pepparkaka in Swedish. In English it's called ginger bread, but.. ( I already wrote here that it has nothing to do with ginger, but then I did some googleing..)
Ginger indeed is one ingredient in the Piparkakku! Or the ready-made seasoning. Never knew!! It tastes nothing like ginger...
I found this one recipe for the traditional Finnish style Piparkakku in English: http://nakedplateblog.com/blog/2011/11/ginger-bread-cookies-–/
Happy holidays and very merry Christmas to you Justinka!
Never been a fan of ginger, though it can compliment the food flavour. :)
