Porilainen (Finnish pronunciation: [ˈpo.ri.lɑi̯.nen]) is a sandwich and street food dish in Finnish cuisine made from white bread and a thick slice of sausage, normally jagdwurst (jahtimakkara). Additional ingredients may include diced sweet onion, chopped pickled cucumber, ketchup, mustard, and in some cases mayonnaise or fried egg.[1]

The name porilainen may be a pun on the word purilainen ('burger'). While it literally means "something originating from the city of Pori", the dish was invented in the 1950s by students at Satakuntalainen Osakunta, one of the student nations of the University of Helsinki.[2] Nevertheless, the dish has been adopted by Pori and it is now considered a kind of traditional food of the locality.[3]

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
