"The most intelligent and brilliantly researched book on the food of the American Indian." —Craig Claiborne, The New York Times
This wonderful book is not just a recipe collection, but a passport to foraging and to surviving close to nature. It will tell you how to prepare familiar foods such as stuffed clams and corn chowder, but also how to fix clover soup, purslane salad, young milkweed spears, wild rice with hazelnuts and blueberries, fiddlehead stew, meadow mushroom pie, stewed wild rabbit with dumplings, spoon bread, acorn coffee, and witch hazel tea. Beautifully illustrated by the author (herself of American Indian descent), this book is also an invaluable manual on herbal medicines and ceremonial, sacred, and poisonous plants — all written with acute sensitivity to and appreciation of Native American ways.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

E. Barrie Kavasch was born in Mound Builders territory in Ohio more than half a century ago. She has traveled widely through Europe and the Americas researching native resources and sacred sites and practices. She honors both European and American Indian bloodlines, and is a direct descendant back through 16 generations to Pocahontas. Barrie has written a variety of natural history books especially on the cultures and cuisines of American Indians, while also honoring the cultures and cuisines of many indigenous cultures around the world. She continues to teach and write about hatha yoga and mindfulness inspired by her daughter Kimberlee who manages her own wellness business in Albuquerque.

She is an herbalist and ethnobotanist with more than 25 books in print: including five poetry books and ten books for children and young adults. Her fifth book of poetry, HAIKU MOMENTS (2009), continues to be a valuable teaching text exploring many ways of seeing nature. Barrie teaches creative writing, poetry, and American Indian ethnobotany, as well as many aspects of spiritual healing and wellness; her home and studio are in the Northwest Hills of Connecticut, where she manages a lively Chess Club with her son Christopher.

No fry bread. These foods predate the time before indigenous people were confined to reservations. The ingredients were cultivated gathered or hunted. No white flour, yeast or white sugar. Look forward to trying some recipes myself. You could have some trouble finding stuff like duck eggs but he offers reasonable substitutions when possible. No problem for me. I have a friend with ducks

ABSOLUTELY LOVE this book. It has so many small little tidbits of information and fun recipes that you can try that DON'T include flour, sugar and store bought ingredients. I have been searching for a long time for a book like that. I don't want to have to purchase garbage at a store; I want to eat the hunter gatherer way. I love the way this book is laid out. I love how the author touches on many different subjects, from wild foods, to ceremonies and medicine. I had no idea that club moss could help nose bleeds! Fascinating and a must read.
