The Baltic Sea is located in the north of Europe, between the Scandinavina Peninsula and the European continent, and the "Baltic Countries" that people often blurt out refer to Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania. On this hot summer day, these three countries are the place to escape from the steel forest in the north and enjoy the coolness of the summer. Although the three Baltic countries are located on the east coast of the Baltic Sea, their cuisine has its own characteristics, and today Xiaobian will take a look at the cuisine of these three baltic countries.

Silgusoust
Estonia has a large number of fish, especially the belly herring halibut. All of these fish can be made delicious, and in a more upscale restaurant, the belly herring will be deboned and fried with beer eggcress. This dish can also be served with lemon slices. On top of the classic roasted bread sprinkled with pumpkin seeds, small herring fillets are placed, and the yolks of the boiled eggs are cut into slices and garnished on the lettuce leaves. What a treat for the eyes and taste buds if you sit in a comfortable restaurant and enjoy them!
Mulgikapsad
