An informative book noting the important foods known in the US today that are of American Indian origin (sic). The American Indian lived in a state of worship closely attuned to all living things and it is with this relationship with nature that led to the recipes included in this book. Some of the recipes you will find in this book: Fried Razor Clams, Moose or Caribou Bones, Baked Salmon, Navajo Tacos, Ibane (roasted rattlesnake), Alaska Hooligan, Warrior's Casserole, Baked Sweet Pumpkin, Squash Casserole, Corn Pudding, Purslane Salad, Iroquois Corn Soup, Wild Onion Stew, Squash Blossom Soup, Cherokee Corn Cakes, Pinon Cakes, Teswin-Tulepa (Apache Beer) Wahojape (Oglala Fruit Soup) Eskimo Ice Cream, Spice Bush Tea, Cranberry Raw Relish, Wild Rose Hip Jelly, and 16 Indian Folk Remedies, and Food Hints. Additionally, there are recipes for wild game. There is an Introduction that gives a historical context for the cookbook (by the AIS of WA DC). This is the second cookbook by the AIS. The spellings are kept in the recipes as original and authentic directly from the recipes given. The American India contribution to the world of cookery is as varied and sophisticated as the culture which nurtured it. #paperback#cookbook#americanindian
