Prep begins for 60th-annual Scandanavian Coffee The 60th-annual Scandinavian Coffee at Bethesda Lutheran Church preparations began with the first of many baking days in the church kitchen. The first baking day was the making of Lefse, a Norwegian flatbread, by rolling the dough with special carved rolling pins and grilling on a large, round griddle. Lefse are spread with butter, sprinkled with sugar, and rolled up before eating. The coffee will be from 9 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 14. Bethesda Lutheran Church is located at 1517 Northwestern Ave., in Ames.
Bethesda Lutheran Church Pastor Bryan Simmons, center, lent his “lefse rolling expertise” to the group as it started by making the lefse by rolling the dough. CONTRIBUTED PHOTO
