Estonian cooking traditionally defaults to Läbiküpsenud (cooked through). Modern Tallinn craft restaurants use English doneness terms; the traditional 'Verine' (bloody) for rare is rarely used outside home cooking contexts.

Doneness terminology varies by country and restaurant. When unsure, describe what you want (e.g., “warm red center”).
