Authentic Navajo Indian Fry Bread (Taco Bread)

Wed, 07 Sep 2005 13:47:50 -0400

Step by easy step recipe for a Native American all-purpose flat bread dating back to the nineteenth century. Fry bread is considered a food of inter-tribal unity and is made at all Indian pow wows. It has a crispy outside and a chewy inside. Serve with butter & honey, powdered sugar, or cinnamon & sugar. Or add 'taco' ingredients to the top to make an Indian taco bread salad. You can also fill these with anything then fold them up to eat. Or simply serve plain with soup, stew, etc. *EDITED TO ADD: This is an old recipe and I know many of us no longer use so much salt - if that's the case for you then I suggest REDUCING THE SALT BY HALF. -- posted by 4Susan

Tumbleweed Chowder

Thu, 06 Oct 2005 20:13:03 -0400

Tumbleweed shoots. Native American, contemporary, SW America posted by Jim to a messagboard "It has a taste similar to split pea soup. No recipe I use is "set in stone" and any number of combinations can be used. Usually if I have any leftovers in the fridge they get thrown into another recipe. You have to gather the tumbleweed when it's just coming up about 4" high. Older plants are tough and to my knowledge inedible." -- posted by DR. House

This is one of those comfort foods my mom makes for me when I was sick as a child. I have always been "sickly" and had pneumonia quite a bit and had to even be home schooled for a while in 1st grade.

This comes from a great book. Cooking Like a Goddess by Cait Johnson. The "sisters" are corn, squash, and beans.

Fried Bread (I Call It Bannock)

Thu, 16 Mar 2006 15:48:38 -0500

This has taken me 9 years to perfect. First I was given the dry ingredients then for about 4 years I made it one way, then I seen my cousin make hers and knowing she comes from an awesome Fried Bread making family I tinkered with the water until I got the right consistency, that was another 5 years. The cooking time includes the minimum amount of time it needs to sit. -- posted by tasb

This is a nice hearty meal that goes together very quickly. You can see how easy this recipe is to adjust for your familys spicy tolerance. None of these ingredients are ever really "optional" here. I tend to add more garlic and some cayenne if there aren't any kids eating. You can use the seasoned varieties of the beans, tomatoes, or anything else. I love Rotel. I serve with some warmed pitas or tortillas. -- posted by Jess4Freedom

This is a recipe I have modified to my taste that I got from a Native American Cookbook. The cakes can be made in either a muffin tin or you can fry them in a little olive oil or oil of your choice. And you can use your favorite seasoning if you don't like dill. You can also use the milk of your choice. You may also use whole eggs if you prefer. It's also a great way to use leftover fresh salmon. -- posted by Riverside Len

The Sage Cafe at Barona Valley Ranch serves this Fry Bread between the hours of 5 and 11 PM. It is OUTSTANDING. Hands down it is the best fry bread I've ever eaten. Top with honey, butter and/or powdered sugar or cinnamon sugar and you'll swear you're eating manna from heaven. We like it so much we asked for the recipe and were quite pleasantly surprised that they freely hand it out! So - here it is, I'm sharing it with you. Enjoy! ETA: You may need to add a tiny bit more water to this, make sure it is hot. Also, don't roll too thin, or they'll fry up crispier than they should. -- posted by Color Guard Mom

Prune Pie

Fri, 14 Mar 2008 01:11:16 -0400

This recipe is more like a giant prune turnover. This is found on many of the pueblos here in NM, and is a great dessert. The crust is more like a cross between a cookie and bread. This recipe is from a small pamphlet called "Sampling New Mexico Foods" printed in 1983, for the E. J. Martinez Elementary School. This recipe is definitely one for those who like to experiment. Many of the ingredients are approximate, as are the prep and cooking times. It's been years since I made this. I've usually seen it done such that the cinnamon is dusted over the top of the crust, instead of added to the prunes. -- posted by SacredCaramelofLife

Southwestern Summertime Quinoa Salad

Mon, 14 Jul 2008 17:22:02 -0400

Wanted a refreshing wholesome side dish to accompany some spicy Mexican meatloaf, and this is what happened. Use a LARGE bowl to mix as it makes quite a significant amount. With the seasoning amounts given, the predominant tastes are the lime, cumin, and cilantro. My family doesn't like spicy things, so there isn't much kick to it, so you could probably double the chili powder, increase the other seasonings, and add some cayenne if you desire. Could also be made with long grain rice if quinoa is unavailable. -- posted by Stylobille24

Delicious Corn Pancakes

My daughters teacher called me at 5:00 on a Sunday, and asked if I could make these for their party Tuesday morning. *eyeroll* Of course I said yes. This is the recipe she gave me. It made approximately 35 cakes. The batter did not smell delicious, but the cakes are surprisingly tasty with butter and syrup. They would also be good with jam, or wrapped around a piece of sausage. The kids at school are supposed to eat these plain. I have a feeling they would rather have had Laura Bushs Cowboy Cookies! (they are wonderful!) -- posted by mmmagique

Lemon Verbena and Calendula Vinegar

Mon, 21 Sep 2009 16:53:40 -0400

When steeping herbs in vinegar in the morning, it can be used that evening since it will begin flavoring the vinegar immediately. The longer it stands the more flavor it will have. The flowers and herbs will deteriorate and the flavor will not be as vibrant. "The annual bed of pot marigolds is filled with plants. These are the true pot marigolds, Shakespeares flowers of Middle Summer, and by midsummer this spot will appear to be covered with a cloth of gold. I expect them to self-sow, returning every year to gladden our eyes. ---Annie Burnham Carter from In An Herb Garden -- posted by ~Rita~
