However, the locals have special ways to eat this iconic food, and it can best be described with three words: Pølse i lompe (hot dog in a lompe \/ lefse ).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"col-sm-6\"\u003e \u003ch4\u003eLompe = Lefse?\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cp\u003eSo what is a lompe? Well, you might have heard about \u003ca tabindex=\"0\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Lefse\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eLefse\u003c\/a\u003e before. Which is best described as a potato tortilla, and is something that Norwegians have been eating for as long as anyone can remember. Lompe however is like the little brother or sister of the lefse. A lompe is normally a bit smaller, it’s always round, and it’s usually thinner than a lefse. Today it’s made with a mix of potato and wheat flour. Most Norwegians don’t make lompe themselves, but they are found in large quantities in every supermarket.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e(Some (like me) sometimes put butter and sugar on the lompe as well.

The result would be a soggy grillpølse, a maltreated wiener hot dog, and it would make you look quite strange to any Norwegian witnessing this.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch4\u003eToppings on a hot dog\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe toppings on a hot dog in Norway can vary a bit in different parts of the country.
