http://www.notquitenigella.com/2007/09/30/september-springtime-picnic-at-centennial-park/ The slightly eccentric eating, cooking and travel adventures of a Sydney girl who loves cakes, cooking, Nigella Lawson and eating. She eats, breathes and dreams food and indeed will never get cable TV as she'd quit working and watch the Food Channel all day long.

My only dumpling recipe is for the pork ones which aren't quite as interesting as the others that one can get. But I will get around to making some more soon and will definitely post the recipe :) Hi Paul-Thanks!

I was wondering about pulla. Just seeing the photo above made me remember it, and I have always had a soft spot for cinnamon. Interesting that there are different shapes too. Thanks for your help. I should try and make some soon. You're an inspiration! Uh huh! I was wondering about pulla. Just seeing the photo above made me remember it, and I have always had a soft spot for cinnamon.

I don't think I've tried it (yet) though. His aunt has a great cookbook in Finnish where it goes through the different regional shapes of this one type of "rice pie". Very cool! :) Hi LuluChoux-My Mother in law and her sister talk about Pulla (yes you spelt it correctly )! I don’t think I’ve tried it (yet) though.

As I remember that they used to be rolled similarly to the Korvapuusti. Or perhaps it is depends on the region you are from? Many thanks. Mmmm-Cinnamon.
