What's lefse? It looks like CiCi's cheese pizza.

What, no lutefisk?

I don't know what it is but it looks like fake dog vommit.

How about some beans with that.

Looks good and similar to kromkaka(sp?)

My aunt (of Swedish extraction) made the stuff every time we made the trek to visit.

[b]ok i was curious so i looked it up in my grandmothers sweedish cookbook..[/b]

"    As any "good" Norwegian-American will tell you... lefse (lef-suh) is to us... as the tortilla is to the Mexican.  It was something that we all looked forward to at Grandma's house for the holidays.  Some of us even have tried to make our own to keep the traditions alive for our children !

"In Norway women would travel from house to house spending three or four days making up to a year's supply of lefse for the household.  They would often work over an open fire and by lantern light into the evening. The finished rounds were stacked in barrels.  Rounds were also stored in kistes (sea chests) or steamer trunks for fishermen packing provisions for long sea voyages. Often, the shed where this baking took place was also the place where beer was made."


     [b]LEFSE[/b]

6 cups riced or mashed russet potatoes
1 tsp. salt
3 T. margarine or butter
1 T. sugar
2 T. heavy cream or evaporated milk
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour


Combine all ingredients except flour; refrigerate until thoroughly chilled. Add flour; mix well. Heat lefse or other griddle to 400 degrees. Form dough into long roll and cut into 12 sections. Form each section into a small ball. Roll out very thin with cloth-covered lefse or regular rolling pin on cloth-covered lefse board or other surface. Dust board with flour when turning lefse dough. Bake on ungreased griddle until brown spots appear. Turn and bake other side. Stack lefse between 2 towels to cool. Store in refrigerator in plastic bags. Can be frozen.


Makes 12 lefse


[b]quess what ill be making[/b]

Dude, you used a regular rolling pin.  Get a special Lefse rolling pin and your Lefse will be more 'tender'.

Stop it DVD, I'm gettin' misty eyed. Haven't been back to Norge in 7 years.
