Grandma’s Kase Knepfla (Video)

Saturday, January 17, 2009 1PM – 4 PM

Berea Lutheran Church, 7538 Emerson Ave. S., Richfield, MN

Who remembers the smell of Kase Knepfla cooking in the kitchen as you walk in the house?  This video was filmed during the 2006 GHRS convention in Portland OR.   The video features Tara, Carolyn and Rachel Miller.  They are the daughters of Harley and Sharon Miller of Chehalis, WA.  Their grandfather was raised in the Eureka, SD area so what these three ladies share is very similar to what we may have enjoyed. 

All three ladies are now adults and employed  but it’s nice to see that this cultural specialty lives on.  The video gives insight into the variations of cooking just this dish alone as people in the audience discuss what they remember of how some of the cooking was done in their family.

After the film, those present for the video discussed the film and their memories of cooking Kase Knepfla. 

Prior to video, Lil Ward treated those present with her home made Knepfla soup.  It was tasty and enjoyable to all.
