Am I the only one that still cooks traditional Native American foods?!
Answers: I am just curious if this is a lost field of cooking. I know that not everyone grew up with it as I did.
I have been known to cook traditional Northeastern Woodland dishes on occasion, including Haudenosaunee ("Iroquois") style corn soup, as well as a corn and white bean succotash made with walnut milk. The walnut milk was made with a mortar and pestle in the old days, but I myself use a blender. I also on occasion make Nasomp (Wampanoag cornmeal porridge), manoomin (Ojibwe wild rice), and of course, the Three Sisters, corn, beans and squash. I'd probably do more with Wampanoag cooking, except that I don't do seafood.
I still cook turkey and corn on the cob! yummm
I chew up corn and spit it in my baby's mouth.
YES! You are the only one. That's amazing.
no, fry bread and succotash is delicious yum yum!!
I cook elk and deer. I'm pretty sure Native Americans cooked that too.
Ooooo, do you have any good recipes to share? My family would love it.
I agree with Lady (above). Please share with us.!
Yes! Please share some recipes!
Nooo...friends of mine do.
I've tried making wojapi, but I don't quite count since I have no idea if I really did it right. But it came out good. : )
Don't worry young one, you are not alone. Seriously though, no your not the only one, everyone has cornsoup here, mmmm, or fried bread, caribou, deer, fish, etc.
Traditional food would be the essentials, like moose, deer, corn, beans and squash, eg, we didn't have baking soda or powder, that kind of thing.
