You can find replacement for Lithuanian sour cream- creme fraiche is very good and you can find Polish curd cheese in Sainsbury's but yet there is still so many things that I can't easily buy living in UK that I greatly miss:
- Fried rye bread with garlic- a beer snack normally, tastes fantastic on its own- that is if you don't mind garlic and how greasy it is.
- Cakes, so many cakes- you can go to any grocery shop and you have a great selection of freshly made cakes. I miss it so much, you can't get anything like that in UK.
- Sweets & biscuits- so many varieties!
- Curd snacks
- Smoked cheese with cumin- I can it the whole thing on its own
- Sour Cream Butter- perfect with potatoes
- Wild blueberries- shop bought blueberries taste nothing like wild blueberries
- White Pizza sauce- in most Pizza places in Lithuania you will be given ketchup and a white/pinkish sauce to go with your pizza. Yes, it's not how Italians eat it but believe me it's delicious. As far as I remember, the white sauce is always made in the restaurant and I am not entirely quite sure what’s in it- mayo, ketchup, garlic yes, but the rest is mystery to me. There are recipes floating around the internet and I ought to try it. I guess it wouldn't go well with an authentic pizza but for your ordinary pizza that you might get from a shop- perfect.
- Freshly baked rye bread. There is nothing like it.
