Lefse Making

For some reason, we thought it would be a good idea to try our hand at making lefse this year. For those of you who have no idea what lefse is, it is the Scandinavians idea of a tortilla. Made from riced potatoes and formed into a dough then cooked on a lefse grill. Once done, it's best to enjoy them with butter, cinnamon and sugar and then rolled up.

My mother-in-law Jo and I were relieved to watch the guys take lefse making and run with it. All we did was check in once in awhile to see how things progressed. Well, they did a splendid job and we enjoyed the lefse immensely. It was such a hit, that the guys made another batch a few days later.

As long as the men are willing, I think this should be a new Christmas tradition!













Notice the green Duct Tape. Can man do anthing without it? :)




They got so handy with the lefse sticks!
