Locals weigh in on the lefse debate
Reporter cchristians@cherryroad. com Lefse! Whether it’s one of the tastiest morsels of food to ever hit your mouth or you can’t stop wondering why people eat it at all, lefse is a tradition here in the Midwest. With three different types of lefse to choose from, there is Tynnlefse (thin lefse) which is traditionally rolled with sugar, cinnamon, and butter inside; there is Potelefse (potato lefse) which is the same as Tynnlefse, except it’s made with 100% potatoes or a mix of wheat flour and potatoes; and then there is Tykkelefse (thick lefse) which is often served as cake with coffee.
