My spouse grew up with krumkake.

Home cooks can achieve something similar, provided they have a krumkake iron and some patience.

Use these gluten-free cookies with your favorite krumkake filling, or cut them into precise circles, as they do at the restaurant, to make dainty ice cream sandwiches.

I felt like I had time-traveled to the Scandinavian neighborhood of my Seattle childhood, where I went to school with kids whose grandmas made delicious krumkake; the flags of Norway, Finland and Sweden waved in the rain above the chain grocery store; and my dad joined a cross-country ski club started by Norwegian ski jumpers.

After that, Mrs. Erickson had turned Evan into another grandchild of hers, and for fifteen Christmases they had joined Mrs. Erickson and her extended family, feasting on baked ham, scalloped potatoes, and krumkake.
