Swedish Potato Sausage Making

Course Overview

If you enjoy sausage, you have to try Swedish potato sausage, with a homemade taste you can’t find in the store! Learn the entire process of sausage making including preparing, deboning, grinding, mixing, stuffing and tasting Swedish potato sausage. Also called "potatis korv," this sausage is traditionally served with lutefisk, lefse and creamed peas on Christmas Eve, but also makes a great breakfast or BBQ sausage any time of the year. This course is "hands-on": learn tasting, mixing, stuffing, and packaging methods. Plan to take home 7-8 lbs of sausage to share with family and friends. This is a great opportunity for families to create a new holiday tradition together. Children ages 10 and up with an adult are welcome to participate at an intergenerational tuition rate - call North House at 218-387-9762 for details.

After 20+ years of teaching at North House, this is the final class the Petersons will offer. We wish them the best in retirement!
