Native Meat Dry Run
Posted by yanti on Sunday, March 1, 2009

Albuquerque Pueblo Dry Rub
1 tablespoon coriander seeds (or 2 teaspoons ground coriander)
1 tablespoon cumin seeds (or 2 teaspoons groundcumin)
6 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoon azafran powder
2 teaspoons dried mexican oregano
1 teaspoon juniper berries ground
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoons black peppercorns (or 1 teaspoon ground pepper)
This makes enough dry rub to flavor about 3 pounds of meat, game, fish, or
poultry. We suggest starting with whole spices for the best flavor, but you
can always substitute ground spices if you prefer.
1. Heat a small saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the coriander and
cumin seeds and toast, swirling the pan constantly, until the seeds give
off a rich aroma, about 1 minute. Immediately transfer the seeds to a cool
plate and allow to cool for a few minutes.
2. Transfer the seeds to a mortar and pestle or a spice grinder. Add the
chili powder, onion and garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. Grind the
spices to an even texture. The rub is ready to use now, or you can
transfer it to a jar, cover it tightly, and keep it in a cool, dry cupboard
or pantry for up to 1 month.

Knead on a lightly floured board until smooth and elastic. Pinch off dough, enough to make 11/2 inch balls. Roll or slap back and forth from hand to hand until each ball is a flat 4-inch round. Fry each round in a skillet, in 1/4-inch deep hot fat at 400 degrees until lightly browned on both sides, turning once. Bread becomes puffy as it fries. Drain on paper towels.

Indian Yeast Fry Bread
2 T. honey
1/2 t. salt
1 pkg. yeast
1 t. baking powder
1 1/2 . oil
1 c. hot water
1 1/2 c. flour
Stir together honey, oil, salt and hot water. Add yeast and allow to stand 10 min. to dissolve yeast.Add flour and baking powder. Use enough flour to make a firm ball. Take enough dough to flatten as pizza crust 6-8 in. in diameter. Deep fry in more oil.
INDIAN FRY BREAD O'Odham Tash
4 tblsp honey
3 tabl oil
1 tabl salt
2 cups hot water
1 package active dry yeast
3 cups unbleached white flour
2 teaspoon baking powder
2-4 cups additional flour
Start the dough mixture about 2 to 2 1/2 hours before serving. Be sure to poke a hole in the center of your dough before you fry it...otherwise your fry bread may have a doughy undercooked center. Mix together the honey, oil, and salt. Stir in the hot water. Mix well. Sprinkle the yeast on top of this mixture. Cover with a cloth and allow to stand about 10
minutes or until yeast bubbles. Add Flour and baking powder. Stir well. Add more flour until mixture is firm and cleans hands. (2-4 cups of flour) Place dough in greased bowl, turning over to grease the top. Cover and allow to raise until double in bulk (about half an hour). Punch down and divide in half, then each half into 8 parts. Form each piece into a ball and place on waxed paper. Allow to raise until ready to cook. Head deep fat to frying temperature. Take a ball of dough and flatten with your hands using a stretching action until the dough is very thin and round (about six to eight inches in diameter). Poke a hole in the middle and drop in deep fat. Fry until golden, about 1 1/2 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels. Serve hot topped with honey, powdered sugar, or cinnamon sugar. For a more substantial meal...cover with refried beans, meat, shredded lettuce, and shredded cheese and salsa. I might mention that the first cake I made was not very flat so I located my wife's rolling pin and used it on the remaining cakes and they turned out perfectly!
Red Corn Fry Bread
1/2 to 1 cup red corn meal
1 cup all purpose wheat flour
1 tsp. baking powder or culinary ashes
2/3 cup to 1 cup water
light oil for frying
(to use the ashes will enhance the red/pink color)
Mix dry ingredients together; form a well in the center and add the water, until you have a good doughy consistency (one that you can work with, either by patting or rolling--I usually pat). If the dough is too sticky, add more of the red corn meal; if it is too dry add more water.
Lightly knead dough and let sit for at least 10 minutes, either covered or lightly oiled on top. Meanwhile heat oil. The oil needs to be really hot or the breads will be rather heavy or not cooked through. Pat or roll the dough into rounds and fry in hot oil until puffed slightly
and golden rosy. Salt if you like--strictly optional. With the cornmeal in the mix, these are heavier than most all wheat frybreads, but I think they taste better.
Cooking with Blueberries
Posted by yanti on Wednesday, March 19, 2008

Blueberry Bannock (Indian Biscuits)
24 ounces of fresh blueberries
5 cups flour
1 cup maple sugar (available at food co-ops)
4 teaspoons baking powder
3-1/2 cups shortening
6 pcs eggs
Recipes for Blueberry Bannock, a fried biscuit, can be found in many American Indian cookbooks, says Sharon Shuck of Duluth. This version offered by Shuck, a Fond du Lac tribal elder, is quite old and can be eaten as a dessert or as bread with a meal. Press the blueberries to obtain approximately 1/2 cup juice. Mix all the dry ingredients (flour, maple sugar and baking powder). Put shortening in a deep frying pan and heat. Beat the eggs with the blueberry juice to get a cream. Mix the cream with dry ingredients and add blueberries. Drop this dough in hot oil, one tablespoon at a time, and brown. Flip over and lightly brown the other side. When all sides are lightly browned, place on paper towel for a few minutes for oil to drain. Serve hot.
Yield: makes about 4 dz
Blueberry Chipotle Sauce
1/2 3/4 cup blueberry preserves
1 pc chipotle en adobo sauce one chile from the can
1 tbsp adobo sauce from chipotle can
Mince chipotle and mix all ingredients. Taste and add more adobo sauce if desired. Serve with grilled game meat. The remaining chipotles and adobo sauce may be frozen in a plastic container for future use.
Blueberry-Buffalo Stew
1 1/2-2 pounds buffalo stew meat
1 cup blueberries
4 cups chicken or beef stock
2 tablespoons canola oil (or bacon drippings)
1 1/2 tablespoons honey
3 tablespoons dry sherry (optional)
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
salt and pepper to taste
Cut the meat into one inch chunks and season lightly with salt and pepper. Heat a large Dutch oven or stew pot. Drizzle in oil or bacon dripping to coat the bottom. Working in batches, brown the meat well on all sides. Add oil as necessary. Do not over crowd the pan. Remove browned meat to a clean dish and cover.
Once all the meat is browned, return it all to the pan with any juices that have accumulated on the plate. Add stock and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and skim off any froth that has collected on the surface until the broth is clear. Add the blueberries, honey, sherry, and cayenne pepper and bring back to a boil. Simmer for 2 hours or until the meat is very tender and the broth has
reduced. Stir occasionally. This helps to break up the blueberries and incorporate them into the liquid. By the end of the cooking time the blueberries should be completely incorporated.
Serve with fry bread and wild greens salad.
