Making Native American FRY BREAD! | Cook Out with Chef Maria Hines

[@carolinebaucom1685]

Heart goes out to the lost children and the loss of generations of culture native to this land. The fact that they are still willing to share this with the world is pure strength and grace. 🧡

[@chefmariahines6759]

I couldn't agree more. Having understanding of the real history and acknowledgement is the first steps of unification and support. It is my wish that we can now display as much strength and grace as the Native American community and all indigenous communities.

[@itsjustmel1217]

I'm really glad you explained that Natives make their fry bread All Different Ways, All Different Ingredients. Very True. Even within the same tribe but different areas they are located on the Reservation they make it different. Our Navajo Frybread is mostly just made up of Blue Bird Flour, Baking Powder, Salt and the Warm-Hot water. 👍 Thank you for making this video Chef & Friends. Also your apron is Beautiful. 🍂🙏

[@hannahcollins1816]

Always happy to see more content from Maria!! She just seems like a wholesome, genuine human being.

[@rei]

Thanks, Hannah! Yes, Maria's pretty fantastic!

[@chefmariahines6759]

Thank you Hannah! I very much appreciate it.

[@TSBURNONE]

Almost ended my REI membership when I saw her put "dairy", eggs, & yeast into that dough. Like she said it's a survival food, so down in Arizona we make it with 3 ingredients and grandma better not see a hole in that thing or you're in trouble. Great video though, love to see REI working with Indigenous people.

[@rei]

Right on. Thanks, Terrell!

[@keiajinfilms]

Ahh this episode was excellent! Thank you again Bobbie for sharing your culinary heritage with us ❤️❤️. I knew a little about the origins of fry bread, but learned a LOT from this video. It is absolutely true that America has an extremely long way to go in recognizing the state-sponsored trauma, pain and yes genocide of so many Native peoples. Some of us are struggling to get to a place where we truly recognize our own history… but sadly, others of us are doubling down on ignorance and hate instead. Kudos to REI for finding so many positive ways to help spread a message of respect and recognition. It’s a tough thing to do in today’s world. I for one will stay tuned to be a part of this community.

[@rei]

Thanks for watching! 🙌😎

[@lindastump4788]

Love hearing from the wisdom keepers and learning from Bobbie.

Ohhh yeah. I live in New Mexico and I can get the most delicious fry bread within minutes of my house. Nom nom nom.

[@rei]

That sounds awesome!!🙌

[@Alaska_Gal]

@@rei it is. Was actually going to get some from the food truck by my house today, but they were closed. Going there tomorrow. 😉

[@perryknetter8577]

Thank you so much for sharing the history Please do more videos

[@rei]

Thanks for watching, Perry! We've really enjoyed working with Bobbie Mollenberg, and everyone from the Colville Confederated Tribes, to bring the last couple of videos to our online community.

[@chefmariahines6759]

Thanks Perry. We promise to make more. Please help spread the word by sharing the video with as many folks as ya can, so we can continue to produce content for years to come.

[@stylehold]

In Chile we have the same, its called “sopaipilla” happy to see similar food across the world 🤟🏻

[@rei]

Yes! Thanks for that delicious mention. 😃

[@chefmariahines6759]

Thank you for sharing Michael!

[@sicilyny5375]

We are all more alike than different..

[@albertarose1111]

Finally a native making fry bread not a YT person

[@carmenibarra4243]

Love the great recipes as well as the history you share!

[@chefmariahines6759]

Thank you Carmen!

[@johnfortwengler4496]

Love the show. You are making me hungry

[@chefmariahines6759]

Thanks John! They've been such a pleasure to create!

[@ainzfern]

Love your videos, chef Maria! They’re always so interesting and I am grateful for the opportunity to learn the context of the food through the history and social awareness that you weave into your stories. Thank you so much! ❤️🙏🏻❤️

[@rei]

We appreciate you watching and sharing your thoughtful reflections.

[@chefmariahines6759]

OMG, you nailed it! Thank you for understanding my vision. I hope to just get better at it. :)

[@aikirunner]

Well done.

[@dougbeale4847]

That bread looks so yum!!

[@rei]

Yes! You have to try it!

[@tamilimberg7548]

you two taught me so much, how to comfort a deep hurt, how to talk about the history of fry bread, and how to make the fry bread. beautiful

[@sinthea62]

Hello from Arizona I have never seen Fried Bread made this way. Looks more of a thick biscuit or donut instead of flatter fried bread I’m used to seeing from the Navajo or Apache Native Americans here in the Southwest. I’ve learned different tribes make fried bread differently. However it looks delicious. Thanks for sharing ❤

[@anubisq1911]

I've never seen eggs in it. But agreed different than yalls, first time I was that way I was like what's this light skinned naan paper bread 😂😂😂

[@ElsieSlim-j9j]

Hi! I'm also fm Az. This made me chuckle!! We don't use yeast and eggs for our fry bread. I thought those were donuts, too. That looks like a lot work just for fry bread! I guess we all different ingredients and at end we all call it fry bread! 😂😂

[@nicolehessling1]

Thank you for that moment of silence. Children were taken from their families. Treated in the worst ways. Then they were left to die alone and scared.

[@michaelstewart3315]

I get these every time I go to a powwow

[@peonerw]

love me some frybread! everyone makes it different but almost the same. I'm san poil from same rez as her and that bread looked awesome! looks like I'm tweaking mine some more haha!

[@rei]

Thanks for tuning in, Ray!👍

[@chefmariahines6759]

That's just wonderful Ray!

[@kilipaki87oritahiti]

Yup every nation/family has their way of making fry bread wether it’s with or without milk (powdered milk) instead of water, with yeast instead of baking soda/powder, with oil or no oil, with eggs or without etc. The list goes on…

[@PunkSolar22x]

My gran would fight you over fry bread and how to make it correctly. I have my own way of making it and it's pretty easy and it's always delicious.

[@rei]

We hope that you and your gran have a truce! ❤️😄

[@chefmariahines6759]

Nothing better than a passionate cook!

[@meganmccarthy8114]

Thank you so much for this incredible show, and for not shying away from the ugly truths about what settler colonialism has done (and continues to do) to Indigenous folk. Definitely eager to watch the rest of the series-- fingers crossed maybe there'll even be one talking about Taino food traditions? That would mean so much to me, so keep it in mind REI if you haven't already! 💛

[@rei]

Hey Megan - thanks for the suggestion!🙂👍

[@robertcavalluzzi8112]

Always 😊 to see Maria and Bobbie having fun in a traditional fry bread. Fry bread is healthy you can have any food with fry bread it fun how you make fry bread it's interesting and educational and it's a part native American history I'm from New york I love to meet you Maria and Bobbie I would be honored to lovely woman keep on cooking ❤😊

[@reneelemos765]

Beautiful women😍 beautiful food😘 beautiful culture!!!💗💗💗💗💗

[@voldemortified]

I think the hole is to keep it from puffing up, like a beignet or sopaipilla. Fry bread tends to be flat (in my experience)!

[@chefmariahines6759]

Oh that makes great sense!

[@brandon7346]

Beautiful fry bread!

[@rei]

We agree!

[@km77q53]

I loved this video, Apart of my culture as well, love fry bread !! 💕💕💕💕💕

[@scruffybehr]

Hi Chef, I live in New Mexico. My family makes sopapillas (which are simular to fry bread) - I like making both. Fry bread / Sopapillas are enjoyed by everyone during the Pueblo Feast Days and during our Fiestas. Thank you for sharing - I love your channel.

[@naturalmeditation101]

I love this showwwwwwwww

[@rei]

Glad to hear that, Robert!🙌

[@mt7427]

Fry bread in NM has no eggs, milk or yeast; it has baking powder, flour salt lard and hot water.

[@ceriacho8560]

I live in New Mexico, my frybread dough is made with flour, salt, yeast, a little bit of sugar, powdered milk, warm water and some shortening. Families make their dough different from others, like it says in the video. 😀🌺🌹

[@GabriellaTrujillo14]

This should be called Bougie Bread after you took out the rolling pin 😂 I was waiting for you to take out your kitchen aid mixer. You could have worn a ribbon dress. That apron 🫣…I have been a member of A.I.M since 1969 traveled to every nation in United States and A lot of Canada only time I’ve seen fried bread look like that is when a white lady made it. 🧡 🧡 🧡 🧡

[@allensandven0]

I came to remember fry bread and ended up with great documentary I had heard the Canadian gov used tactics on First Nations with some as late as 1960 & 70s.

[@eternaloveandgratitude]

I saw the fry bread mix available in the Native American Museum store

[@ceriacho8560]

😂🌺🌹Sometimes when I'm very busy to mix my own frybread dough I think about buying that mix. But I always end up putting the box back on the grocery shelf because I don't think it would be enough for my family. Buying more than 4 boxes is expensive, so I usually make my dough at home in the end. I made frybread yesterday, had it with honey and melon juice and grilled steaks.

[@NakiaEvans-n7z]

We’re Haliwa saponi our fried bread doesn’t have a hole in it, very interesting

[@michaelad48]

YUMMMMM YESSSSSSSSS PLEASE LOOKS SOOOOOOOO DELISH, CRAVING SOME NOW, THANKS FOR SHARING YOUR RECIPE

[@katieeichhorn4279]

Can you make the dough and put it in the fridge for frying later?

[@VIi726]

I just gained 10lbs watching this lol

[@neunerball]

a little bit of 10 lbs

[@alicebrokman2863]

I have so much respect for the Native way. If settlers listened to them. I don't think climate change would be as fast moving. As for hunting Natives only took what they needed. History books should be rewritten and the truth be told.

[@memascabin1186]

Most horrific part of our history as human beings there are no words it was just despicable

[@ibogggh2975]

That looks just like fry bake we have in Tobago

[@perceleonolopez2088]

i taught you eveything

[@lilikiwi]

When i make fry bread i think. Of those story

[@baggdmini]

i would like to know the recipe for the stew. Thanks

[@cassandrad1727]

How can i find the vension stew recipe?

[@pakleader4]

Hey black folks you wonder where you got the ideal to make jiffy corn patties. They (meaning natives taught us). So when you see people taking cornbread and frying it in a cast iron skillet. Theses are the people who taught us and help us to survive!!!!! My great grandma was half or three quarters. I know natives hate hearing that stuff. Buy my Nanny made a lot of natural native dishes as well as southern soul foods and a combination. SEMPER FI

[@KukiAirani-m3h]

Fry bread goes well with pork and puha

[@shannonlee5967]

I don't think I've had native American fried bread.😋

[@rei]
