She did not measure anything and began making her lefse from the boiled potatoes left over from the night before. "A bowl of potatos, some cream, a little sugar", and by cream she mean the real stuff, that which my uncle Svette or Ole had just produced with an old hand cranked seperator (a nightly routine on their farm after hand milking the cows.)</comment> </recipe>
