Course Overview

Learn to make lefse the way your grandmother used to do it–-an easy, time-tested recipe made from whole potatoes. You’ll learn the entire process of lefse making, from potato preparation to mixing, rolling, folding, and storing, as well as the equipment used to be successful. Other recipes and uses for lefse (some not so serious) will also be covered. No preservatives, MSG, or other undesirable additives. Made from pure, natural ingredients. Take your newfound skills home with you to recreate this wonderful addition to a well-placed Scandinavian meal. Each student will take home several rounds of lefse to freeze or enjoy immediately. The instructors have over 100 combined years of making and eating lefse, so come and join a couple of Scandinavians who know their potatoes!
