It's called Jälkiuunileipä.
There is actually some information in English about it in Wikipedia:
> The old tradition was that all bread in the house for the year was baked in a few days, in a large oven that took a long time to cool after being fired. Thus, jälkiuunileipä (lit. after-oven bread) could still be baked in the residual heat. The longer baking time in the lower temperature gives it a darker color, higher density and hardness than regular rye bread, comparable to a fruit cake. In addition to the traditional reikäleipä shape, there are also rectangular ruispala-type pieces available.

- tom_mellior 10y agoInteresting, thanks! I found this recipe: http://www.kotikokki.net/reseptit/nayta/528268/J%C3%A4lkiuunileip%C3%A4/ http://www.kotikokki.net/reseptit/nayta/528268/J%C3%A4lkiuun... which looks quite straightforward once sent through Google Translate. I'll give it a try.
