I began this art after receiving a lefse griddle when I first married. Before I acquired a real lefse recipe, I used leftover mashed potatoes from the previous day’s meal. The number of lefse I have made is beyond count.
In taking part in the national bake off I prepared my lefse dough at home. An open audience viewed the rolling and frying of many contestants which consisted of young teens to many about my age. Viewers were permitted to ask the contestants questions. I chose one of four of the lefses I had prepared and this was sent to a separate enclosed room made up of a panel of judges. Their search was for taste, texture and appearance. I was overjoyed with their conclusions.
I have made lefse for large groups, such as smorgasbords and Lefse Day sales. I enjoy giving demonstrations in various settings. These include retail stores, churches, Norwegian stevnes, elementary schools, Sons of Norway gatherings, craft shows, and homemaker groups. Teaching both large and small groups helps me inspire students of all ages with a hands-on experience.
Newspapers, magazines, and periodicals have told the story of the first edition of my book, and I have been interviewed on several local radio stations.
I am adamant that families should have at least one member who is a lefse maker, and this person should pass the knowledge of lefse-making to the next generation. I wish to share my experiences and get more families involved in the making of lefse so more can enjoy this wonderful delicacy.ver menos
