Located in: Dry Goods, Breads

Lefse (lef'-sa) is a traditional Scandinavian potato-based, soft, flat bread. It is made by combining potato, flour, shortening, milk, salt and water. The dough is rolled very thin and baked on a hot, dry griddle. It is a Scandinavian delight and very versatile. Spread it with butter and roll up for a quick snack. If you have a sweet tooth, sprinkle one with a little sugar and add a dash of cinnamon. Serve as a bread with meals, a coffee-time snack or roll-up with your favorite lunchmeats and cheeses.

Comments about Mrs Olson's Lefse:

I prefer the large thin rounds and cook them in foil.
You can do it with these, but have to use 2 for bottom layer and 2 for top layer.
Here's how I cook it:
greased foil+
one round+
lots fresh spinach+
chopped raw onion+
3 slices swiss cheese spread out+
One more round+
Another greased foil.
Fasten the edges carefully so it all stays in.
Toaster oven on little baking tray.
20minutes @350.
This makes spinach like something awesome!
Tastes like no other spinach in the world.

Comments about Mrs Olson's Lefse:

I grew up around my Norwegian Grandmothers Lefse, made on her wood stove and she always said it should be "like paper or you made it wrong". At an eighth of an inch yours is much too thick. It tastes the same as Grandma's - it's only the texture that's wrong.

Good taste but a bit thick.

Fresh and good taste. However, I grew up with lefse that was a bit thinner and more flakey and would have preferred those qualities.
