Canada as a whole is finally recognizing, addressing and trying to understand the impact of Residential Schools, and the treatment of Indigenous peoples. September 30th is the first day of the day for Truth and Reconciliation. Many of the foods classes today will be making bannock a traditional frybread, a staple in First Peoples diet. This bread has evolved from the Scottish settlers -also a staple in their diet. Bannock we know of today was created when grain and flour was introduced and shared. The First Nations, Metis and Inuit people all make variations of bannock, as every family also has their recipe.
We will be making Jackie Normans aunties' recipe, it is delicious and simple to make. I have said many times ...cook with love and it tastes better. When making bannock you must also cleanse your space, thank the elders (powers that be) and make with happy thoughts. These actions will lead to your bannock being light and fluffy, feeding your belly and your soul. Give thanks hyshka’
