  • Hello friend! I had an active Saturday, making a trip to a lovely forest called Mustavuori, picking mushrooms, and using them to bake a mushroom quiche.
    It's peak time for funnel chanterelles in Finland. They're an excellent food mushroom and quite easy to find this time of year. They grow in forests that have lots of spruce trees, and I read that Mustavuori would be just the right kind of forest. That turned out to be correct, I found so many!
    Helsinki has some wonderful nature spots near the city centre and I'm trying to start exploring more of them. If you're interested in the Mustavuori area that I visited in this video, you can find more information in English here:

    Here's the excellent quiche recipe, unfortunately only in Finnish:

    I love the way you say ‘good luck little pie’. I always do the same when I send my creations off into the oven. :-)

    I am thoroughly enjoying your videos, their beauty and calmness. The forest looks very much like northern Minnesota where I am from. I am third generation Finnish, my Grandmother spoke Finnish, and our area was largely Finnish and French. So, it’s quite interesting and fun for me to see bits of your city and country. Thank you.

    Wow I had always been told to not pick mushrooms in the wild because the edible ones look so much like poisonous ones (not that I knew that much about mushrooms anyways). But now I see it is just fine to do that. I learned about funnel chanterelles today! And what types of forests and trees they might grow in! Thank you for your beautiful close up videography of the forest and leaves and mushrooms. And showing a recipe how to prepare your foraging! It was like a snippet of a documentary.

      Thank you for the lovely comment! It’s important to be careful when foraging for mushrooms because it’s very easy to accidentally pick poisonous ones. But as long as you do your research and only pick ones you know for sure are edible, it’s a really great activity. 😊

    "good luck little pie" 😍
    I've found your channel a few weeks ago and I'm loving it!!! Your videos are so calming and so good to watch! It has been an inspiration for me as well, to take slow moments during the day just to enjoy those little moments of life and see the joy that they can bring. Thank you! Keep making videos! 😊
    (Also, great music! I've found a playlist on Spotify similar to this style and been starting my mornings listen to it for the past couple of days, what a game changer! 😄)

    Any porcini then? You can find very delicious mushrooms there. I cook mushrooms differently, so your video is a very educational.

    Buy kiwis way before you think you'll want to eat them, put in paper bags to ripen quickly.

      @@EmmiLa or take the kiwis out of the plastic and have them sitting next to the bananas on the plate. Bananas emit something as they ripen, and that will help the kiwis (and avocados) ripen too.
