Love Your Lefse


Adult Enrichment / Culinary Creations -
Adult Fall 24

This wonderful Norwegian delicacy is made for banquets, holidays, weddings and other special occasions. If you’re Norwegian and missed recording Grandma's recipe, tips and techniques then you'll simply flip for this class! Learn the fine points in making the dough, baking, storing and how to serve lefse. Bonus is there is a bit of history and humor involved as well. Begin with real potatoes using a number of authentic recipes and a modern version using instant potatoes. Plan to sample your fresh and warm creations with traditional fillings plus take home finished lefse and dough to bake and share with family and friends.
