Today Division 9 made bannock with Grandma Sadie. We mixed warm water with sugar and yeast together, and then prepared a flour mixture with flour, baking powder, salt, sugar and a couple spoonfuls of the dissolved yeast. We added water to get a play dough-like consistency. Next week, I will post the recipe if you want to make this at home.
Grandma Sadie’s family is Wet’suwet’en, and they come from Central B.C., near Smithers.
Each student took home a piece of dough that could be baked at 350 degrees for 5 to 10 minutes. You could also deep-fry it, and then it would be called fry bread.
