Old Fashioned: Fry Breads / Campfire Breads /Flat Breads
Anyone else making the old fashioned Fry Breads
Navajo/Apache
Hoe Cakes
Johnny Cakes
Etc: Etc:
Been messing with various versions for the past couple of years
Not only "Fry" breads but just about anything that you cook without an oven, especially the ones made in Hot Iron or over a fire
Bannock
Flat Breads
Anyone else ???"No amount of money spent on a Stone can ever replace the value of the time it takes learning to use it properly"

I usually make up a batch of pre-mixed bannock for camping. Cooking over the campfire seems to attract a lot of attention from neighbouring sites.
Do you count dumplings cooked on top of the stew or chili in the Dutch oven?David

In the past I have made fry bread and sopapillas, but the thing I really like is hot water cornbread cooked in lard.

In these parts native americans sell fry bread on the roadside. They are famous for it.

I have had bannock on the local reserve but don't know if they sell it. Can be good with in season fresh blue berries.

Navajo fry bread appears to have a very bitter/sweet background. Seems it was first concocted with what the US government gave them as they were forced off their land.

I've never made it but I have made hushpuppys which seem to have their own sordid history.rolodave likes this.Our house is as Neil left it- an Aladdin’s cave of 'stuff'.
