Need help with name of food here! (and more to come once I arrive again)
First is fish pieces served cold in buffet, skinned, white/gray, cured and very sour. Not sure if salted. It tastes springy - more than smoked salmon, possibly raw.
Nobody was eating it but tasted great in porridge with bacon and pepper. That's perfect breakfast!

What's the name?

Thanks!! It looked just like the the Ceviche!

But sour, not salty (although I did feel very thirsty afterwards). The sourness was embedded within the fish, not sauce from skin. Could curing the fish in lemon for a night achieve that?
Is it safe to make at home? from the valio.fi the fish is raw and only cured in salt - can that kill parasites?

Salting isn't enough, you should freeze the fish for 24 hours.

What are the Finnish sandwiches called? I think I have not tried this bread in such a combination.

What sandwiches exactly? A picture or a description would help. Finland doesn't really have a sandwich culture, toast skagen is served here and there in restaurants but it's Swedish. Voileipäkakku (literally: "sandwich cake") is another, more commonly served in family-type gatherings, not so much in restaurants.

I got the answer! It's "silli"!
