Lefse and Grandmas Christmas Cookies
Hello, everyone! My name is Colin, and this year I took the plunge and started a semester abroad in Volda, Norway. As a media student, I deal with the sender, the medium and the receiver and have to learn about many different media. This blog shows you how to use my recipes (sender) and your stove (medium) to make food that will make your taste buds (receiver) explode. This semester, I am currently taking the module ‘Norwegian Food Culture’, in which I am gaining practical experience in Norwegian cuisine. In the third practical exercise, we dealt with baking und preserving flour. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, 20% of food is thrown away every year because it spoils. (Brown, 2019, p. 540) You and I are going to combat this today by showing you how to preserve flour by turning them into lefse. Besides that, I will also share with you my favourite christmas cookie recipes by my grandma. Let's get started! -----------------------------------...
