This 16 inch Lefse griddle was used for the example breads. In Africa, it would probably made on a Tava, circular sheet of iron over a wood fire, but that takes a lot of experience to get the temperatures right. A regular 12 inch iron skillet would work if well seasoned, or a non-stick pan of similar size. Whatever pan is used, it must have a cover. I suggest you have an Infrared Thermometer for accurate temperature control. For details on the photo pan see our Lefse Griddle page.

To safely handle this bread, you should use a wide turner like the Oxo example to the left in the photo. If not using a non-stick pan, you can use plain metal turners.
