Freddy's
Lefse
|
A fellow lefse-lover passed along this website to me,
saying he's found Freddy's to be "one of the best!" And
since it's a North Dakota firm, I suspect he's correct (I'm a North
Dakotan).

Lena's Lefse
|
A fellow "Lefse Lover" recommend Lena's to
me. I got a kick out of their "Lefse Emergency
Hotline"!
"I've never tasted better lefse
(except my grandmother's of course) - its got to be the water in Ulen
and the potatoes from the Red River Valley."
Jan H. (lefse lover since '66)

According to their site: lutefisk, herring & lefse
are only shipped October through April to be sure it gets to you
fresh. However, they're available in the store year around.

"Tender Wonderful
Lefse"
|
Submitted by Joyce from Norske Country (near La Crosse & Westby,
WI).
"Bet if you try it - it's the only
one you'll make from now on!" --- Joyce
Today, I made the Westby lefse recipe. Oh my lord, was it
wonderful! I think that you should mention that it makes WAY more
lefse then quoted. Perhaps I take the "roll lefse as thin as
possible" to an extreme, thanks for sharing the recipe. My father
in law is from Westby, I'm dying to say what he thinks.! Have a
wonderful day!

Lefse Lover Rob Marx sent me this recipe. He's got 20 yrs of experience and the recipe includes some great tips!
Webmaster note: This one's a
winner. My daughter and her fiancé did a couple of batches of
this one and it was super-tasty. Two lefse sticks up! |

7-Up Lefse
|
Uncle David Holter sent this one to me. It looks so simple (no potatoes to peel or cook). Gotta try it soon!
Webmaster warning:
We tried this one in January '02, and didn't care for it that
much. It uses vegetable oil instead
of butter or margarine, and
that maybe the difference. It is certainly easy, however. And,
is there really such a thing as "bad" lefse? |
