NATIVE FRY BREAD CLASS
In addition to mastering the recipe, you’ll hear the fascinating history behind fry bread. This dish traces back to the 1800s, when Native Americans, forcibly relocated from their homelands, were given government rations like flour, salt, and lard. Out of necessity and from these simple ingredients, Native Americans crafted fry bread, a symbol of both survival and cultural identity. Today, fry bread remains a significant part of Native American culinary traditions, used in celebratory meals and gatherings.
Join us at Bliss Farm for a hands-on, 1-hour class on how to make traditional Native American Fry Bread. In this class, you’ll learn the step-by-step process to create this delicious, golden treat, a staple in many Native American cultures.
By the end of the class, you’ll take home your own freshly made fry bread, along with the knowledge to recreate it in your kitchen. Plus, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of the cultural significance of this humble yet meaningful food.
