Recipes

Lefsa (Norwegian/Swedish potato flat bread)
From Delia Halverson

3 c. cooled mashed potatoes
3 c. flour (or less, depending on moistness of potatoes)
1 t. salt
1 T. sugar
2 T. shortening
2 T. cream

Mix ingredients. Roll out on floured pastry cloth, as if for pie crust, using only enough additional flour to keep from sticking. Roll as thin as possible. (Using sleeve on rolling pin also helps.)

Bake on hot griddle (400) on both sides. Do not over-bake. Cool on dishtowel. Fold into squares and store in refrigerator.

Good spread with butter, sugar and cinnamon. If lefsa becomes hard, warm in oven in a towel which has been slightly dampened.

*Affectionately called “napkins” by my children. DH
