A kind of yoghurt, clabbered milk or longmilk, with a stringy consistency; milk, mixed with a little soured cream (US: cultured sour cream), which has been left to stand in a warm place until it has set. Lactic acid bacteria act on the milk. There is also a fungus present, Geotrichum candidum, which gives a smooth velvety surface to it.

It is more commonly found in Finland and Sweden (as filmjölk, using slightly different bacteria) than in other Nordic countries.
