In the new cooking series 'What Do You Have Good Here?', popular Estonian hobby chef Kristjan Gold travels to the Nordic countries to discover local tastes and the stories behind them. Rather than simply dining out, Gold immerses himself in the culinary culture of these regions, exploring how food is intertwined with the local people and their customs. The show is set to premiere on Kanal 2 this Wednesday.

Gold, equipped with his mobile kitchen, collaborates with locals to recreate their most cherished dishes. He expresses a fascination with the culinary similarities and differences between the Nordic countries and Estonia, suggesting that they have historically considered themselves more Nordic than Baltic. As he ventures into Denmark, Sweden, and Finland, Gold seeks to understand what traditional foods are still prevalent in everyday life, aiming to showcase the unique attributes of regional ingredients.

The series promises to reveal how familiar ingredients can taste remarkably different across borders, as exemplified by Gold's statement about the distinct flavors of pickled herring from Denmark compared to Finland. This exploration not only showcases diverse culinary practices but also highlights the unifying power of food, bridging cultural divides and fostering connections among people from different backgrounds.
