Sunday Stills: Lovely Lefse
This week's challenge was food. I think Ed thought we all might bake! No such thing happening at this house yet. However I did receive some Lefse as a gift. Lefse is a Norwegian flat bread it is made from potatoes. You spread butter and sugar on it and roll it up and eat it. You might also like it with peanut butter. Check out the other foods at Sunday Stills. Oh and for you trivia buffs, Starbuck, Minnesota is home to the worlds largest lefse. It was nine feet and eight inches in diameter and weighed in at seventy pounds..Now that must feed just about every Norwegian in the whole town! :)

ReplyDeleteOh those look delicious! I love any kind of bread, or anything like that.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great header, I love the split pics. And the wonderful framing. Now why can't I get my photos to show up that big on my blog?

Our Scandahovian (that's what they call themselves) make this all the time and serve theirs with Rogers Golden Syrup.
ReplyDeleteYummy looking!
ReplyDeleteI spent a Christmas with a Norwegian family, and while I liked the lefse, I couldn't handle the ludafisk.
ReplyDeleteI was just talking to my daughter today about lefse. They had their Christmas with her dads side of the family last night and I asked her if they served Lefse. NO-- her grandmother isn't doing very well. I think it is pretty sad that the girls of the family didn't learn how to make it.
