I am half Native American, and fry bread is a must! We never lived on the tribes reservation, but when we do go back one of my aunts already has the dough ready to fry some bread because she knows we want some. We try to make it at home, but it isnt the same like my aunt does it. It does something to you when you eat it. It is like it connects to your soul, and we eat it up. As far as I can remember, I have been eating fry bread. From the time a baby can eat solid food, fry bread is given to a Native American child. Fry bread is a part of Native American culture, and it just makes you remember all the good times you had sitting and enjoying being with each other. Some have passed on, but you just remember. I love being Native American!

Back in 2009 a group of my friends from the UK visited Seattle and the reservations around Olympic peninsula; we visited with the Makah, Quileute, Jamestown SKlallam and Suquamish Nations. I was introduced to fry bread on the Makah Reservation, when we had a cookout on the beach and some of the community cooked for us. I had my first Indian Taco whilst attending the Tribal Canoe Journey on Suquamish Reservation. They tasted awesome. And dont get me started on huckleberries. the jam is soooo good. On my last visit to Seattle last year I brought some home. I didnt bring enough!

Lovely, we make a lot of breakfast items in our neck of the woods. I like rolling em long and throw some hot dogs an chili on those mfrs. Starts with great bread tho, quick mini pizzas are taste too. Fast food chains are terrible these days, had tahco bhell the other day, opened it up to add some sauce. The damn burrito looked like a fully loaded baby diaper, bar aint to high these days.

Well this was a type of food that was introduced pretty late, as when they where on the rez, because this was the food rations they where given by the government. Back then it was probably less tasty, and fancy looking. I love how you take something so universal (many cultures have them) and simple as fry bread, and make it so tasty, and fresh. I make this maybe twice a year.

the hungarian langos is like the italian pizza, it was born out of a way to use up leftover bread dough. native american frybread is different in that it was never intended to be baked in an oven so it is fresh dough intended to be fried, not leftover old dough. the hungarian dough also frequently contained potatoes, something native american frybread never has.

Frybread is a labor intensive dish, which is why a lot of time it's done for special events or pow wow season. A spot on the Grand Ronde rez used to have the Skookum Burger. Which was a HUGE burger made with huge frybread buns. It was one of those challenge burgers. Skookum is a word from my coastal tribe that means the equivalent of demon.

Oh lord, what did I do to be blessed with this video? I never knew there were so many variations. I only thought about traditional Indian tacos, Wojapi sauce, and dipping it in soup soup soup. My mom would use bread for burgers, prairie dogs, and ham sandwiches and that was it. Now I'm going to ask her to experiment more and more.

This just inspires me to start a food truck to share our Navajo culture with the different ethical backgrouds of amerca through food. Here on the Navajo reservation I can only think of 2 restraunts that specialize in Native American cuisine. Besides that the only other place to get native food is at a local swapmeet.

i have noticed a lot native food is really reservation food born out of period of colonization. I am kind interested in understanding what they ate pre colonization. because a lot of foods originate from the america, corn, potato, avocado, pumpkin, squash, beans, sumac and other berries
