I had it served, spread with butter, sprinkled with sugar and cinnamon, and rolled up.
In that case, they would also be good with jam or Norwegian brown cheese (brunost)
I just looked up lefse on Wikipedia. It says that it is often eaten with
Lutefisk - Wikipedia

My Swedish BIL served some Lutefisk on Christmas Eve once. It was nasty! Everyone but him spit it out in a napkin.

I have never had it or even seen it. If someone served it to me, I would taste it. I am curious. It really does sound nasty, but could be a surprise.

If I ate fish I'd try lutefisk. We have friends in MN, that like it too. This is a church dinner, $25/adults, lutefisk and meatball dinner, north of Madison WI. https://www.christlutherandeforest....~:text=We expect about 1,300 members, friends

He only ever mentioned lease in his OP. Others mentioned lutefisk.

I would probably do the same. That's one food I've never had the desire to even try. I consider myself fairly adventurous when it comes to trying new foods. But Lutefisk? Nope. Don't think I could do it.
Ooopsie -yes, I know Andy. Then there was an inclusion in another post, I misunderstood and thought it had been changed accidently without realizing the difference. My bad.
Yep, I saw the answer post and figured Lutefisk and Lefse must be the same thing.
I did my own internet search, and they are clearly not the same.

I'm the one who mentioned lutefisk. I wrote that it is sometimes served on lefse according to the Wikipedia article about lefse.
I replied using my phone. I was very surprised to see lefse as one of my predictive typing choices. I have an Android phone and I refuse to allow auto-correct. OTOH, I love those lists of screenshots of the funniest and worst auto-corrections.I have to go into hand-to-hand combat with Autocorrect to type Lefse.
