Tumblr is sleeping on Lefse frfr
So imma just talk about why later is the best potato dish...ever.
(I will not be taking criticism at this time)
You like potatoes? GOOD NEWS ALOT OF LEFSE ARE MADE WITH MOSTLY POTATO
Don't like potato? Boy do i have good news for you? There's potatoless options (tho I've only had it made from potatoes)
So what can you do with lefse???? :))))) you can do anything.
Savory? Slap some ham and cheese for a great snack :D
Sweet? Hell yeah :33 put some sugar, cinnamon, and butter and your gonna have the best treat ever
Lefse is the base from which infinite potential can be created
eat it as a snack, a dessert, lunch, with dinner?, Anytime you want
It takes eons of practice to get it right but that just means you get to eat MORE LEFSE
Anyway i love this dish and i wish could eat it more (and find it in America outside the Midwest lmao)

Christmas Lefse This is a Norwegian-style lefse, that our family makes together every Christmas Eve morning. The potato dough is refrigerated overnight to make the lefse more tender. Delicious spread with butter and either white sugar or brown sugar! 1 tablespoon salt, 3 tablespoons butter melted, 1 cup all-purpose flour or as needed, 1 cup whipping cream or as needed, 5 pounds potatoes peeled

For almost 15 years now I’ve spent all of my holidays with my chosen family. This includes most holidays with my cousin’s in-laws. The in-laws are originally from Minnesota and their family is Norwegian. So over the years I’ve gotten to be part of some cool tradition, and this year Candy decided we all need to learn to make lefse. Lefse is basically a potato tortilla?! It’s a multi-day process where you boil potatoes and then rice them and mix it with butter or lard plus flour and it forms a really soft dough. Then you let it rest for about 24 hours.
The next day you roll it out with a special rolling pin. The dough is kind of fragile, and doesn’t really mash together like a pie crust does. You use a special stick to turn it over as you’re rolling them out and then you carry it to the flat top griddle to cook. Then they go into a tea towel while they’re still warm and sit for a while. Then we feast!

We eat them with butter and sugar but I imagine it would be good with other stuff.

Some activities from earlier this month, sister and I made lefse for the first time, gotta say significantly better than store bought but sister doubled the recipe so it took so long to cook them all, I got my family to try out cornstarch cookies I made with me, I made a perfect, not cracked, gluten free pumpkin pie, and Cal and his sister Maple had a lot of fun fighting over whichever ball I touched last and disturbing the carpet because the carpet was the only thing they could brake on

Postcards from Snagglepuss (Minnesota State Fair edition)
So much for "practical" souvenirs
And they seem to be in abundance at many a Minnesota State Fair booth--especially when it's free. Bag clips, buttons, pens, pencils, styluses, refrigerator magnets, Post-It notepads, even more conventional notepads! And of the latter, there's easily the possibility of using the reverse side of each sheet for impromptu autograph sessions, aling with a souvenir pen in service to the appeasement of fans.
But on the other hand, over in Creative Activities, you can't help but find alongside the kitschy "miracle" gadgets supposedly aimed at making housework easier one stand selling that Norwegian potato flatbread known as lefse--of which I've purchased a few packets on occasion for simple lunches, and maybe for rollup sandwiches impromptu with deli luncheon meat, especially for the road ahead. (Still, though, someone mentioned to me that a few supermarkets in the Upper Midwest, especially where a Norwegian immigrant presence is obvious, sell lefse in the refrigerator case ... and perhaps the best brands they'd recommend are Norseland, which is made in Rushford, Minnesota, and Aunt Julia's. The worst, hands down, for some reason: Countryside, coming out of Blair, Wisconsin. And from what I hear, Norseland Lefse uses real potatoes, which explains their texture and taste.)
And another such selling soup mixes as are somehow Southern in concept--chicken tortilla, chicken and rice, plantation soup, that sort of schtick. Which might be worth bringing along on the trip outward, heading back to the Artificial Waters of Artificial Lake Delton whence Crazy Claws keeps his quarters, his retreat even, along its shores (and do spare us, even if it's coming across your mind right now, that faux-Indian-melody of "From the Land of Sky-Blue Waters," as in Hamm's Beer even! Over at the ur-diver's camp with the Three Wolves, it was mostly sun tea, bottled mineral water, soda and not much else, not even near beer, come to think of it....)
Oh, and let's not forget one stand selling campy Minnesota-themed souvenirs fond of selling Cream of Wild Rice Soup mix, as if that were a Minnesota necessity with some diced ham, turkey even, not to mention ciabatta rolls warmed over. Or maybe even that Indian flatbread known as naan ... brioche rolls, Hawai'ian sweet rolls even? Few packets of those wild rice soups there, which, like those other soup mixes just mentioned beforehand, could be worth sharing at Crazy Claws' retreat over the impending autumn.
I just hope Crazy Claws has a decent-sized soup kettle, maybe a slow cooker, for all that soup mix, especially on Sunday afternoons which could get rather brilliant and at once crisp weather-wise. Especially uppermost in my mind as I put them in my ur-camper, otherwise known as a Mini Cooper, ahead of departure once the fair ends.
But more about this in my usual Wednesday spiel.

[Yep. What happens if you flip it? Is it the "right-sa"? [ Laughs ] Proud to say so. We make it with the lefse... BOTH: And we make it with the right-sa.]
