    My family was blessed to have Navajo neighbors that taught us how to make fry bread. When we would struggle and wouldn’t have any money to buy some food we would make fry bread and add whatever we had in fridge. That for sure saved my family and I from starving. God bless The Navajo people💙

    Many yrs ago my late Mother in law was making this patting out her dough with her small brown hands. Her family was extremely poor and extended back to the Oklahoma trail of tears. She didn't say much but on this day as she cooked her fried bread & a pot of beans she was smiling & humming. I asked why she was so happy this day & without ever looking up she said " because i have people that i love that I am sharing my meal with" ! And truly the bread was the best i have ever had. Those simple words in her small run down kitchen left an impression on me & taught me a valuable lesson.

    @@LG-xs7ud Flour, corn, potato, carbs are the blank canvas for the chefs of the world to paint on. The ingredient is simple, yet so many ways to prepare depending on the culture. I grew up with grits seasoned with salt, pepper, some butter, and cheese if we are feeling hedonistic. I've traveled a lot, learned new cooking techniques, then used what I learned to put my own spin on grits. I've since seasoned my grits with everything from Sichuan peppercorn to sumac. (The Sumac was pretty good, something I learned about from a Middle-Eastern buddy of mine.) I even once tried making Japanese curry, but swapped the rice for grits, worked pretty well. I love trying a new spin on something I am familiar with. This is a bit tangential I'll admit, but your comment reminded me of my own experiences. Cooking can really be an art, a way to share culture that anyone can appreciate. I've gone back to being a college student, I think I'll try my hand at fry bread since I got a lot of flour from a friend who graduated.

    I went through some slim years and figured out if you use some flour, baking soda and maybe chili powder plus garlic, basil, and put water in, I fry it like a pancake. Or drop spoonfuls in boiling water that has a little seasoning from a ramen packet, or a little spaghetti sauce and touch of bouillon in it, that's good. If you're hungry, and use some whole wheat flour with regular or unbleached, that's filling and has good fiber. The unbleached flour is hard to tell from regular all purpose flour and is same price. It does not raise your blood sugar nearly as much.

    My brother had a job in New Mexico and brought back the recipe for fry bread. So good! Later, I lived in Canada where the native people made "bannock", the same thing. Nothing better than a shore lunch of fresh-caught fish and bannock. Later, I lived in Greece and invited an Australian girl for lunch. "You made damper!", she exclaimed. That's what the aboriginal people of Australia call exactly the same thing. Fry bread around the world!

    Many years ago I was traveling the back roads in Arizona. I saw a small truck by the side of the road with a sign and an older woman and two beautiful young girls. The sign said Navaho Fry Bread so I stopped. As the woman fried it up the girls were talking in what I presume was Navajo. It was enchanting listening to them. It was like they were singing. I'll never forget that experience!

    The best fried bread I've ever had was at the flea market in Gallup, NM. There used to be this old red travel trailer set up there, you'd go in the door and there were two long tables. Everyone sat together and ate. I'd take my Grandfather sometimes and we'd have Navajo tacos and coffee. I have great memories of sitting with strangers and sharing a meal with them, and it helps me stay connected to my Grandfather who passed away many, many years ago.

I was pretty destitute, just had a bag of flour and some potatoes. I hunted for meat every day, squirrels, rabbits, and grouse. I came across a recipe in a Mazola corn oil cookbook for "fry bread". That recipe got used so many times over the next few months before going back to work. I plan on making this for my grandkids since running past this video. Thanks!

    My wife had dreamed of visiting the Grand Canyon for almost 50 years and so finally we went, for Thanksgiving, and her daughter and son in law who live on the W. coast met us there. Our first day in Arizona we were told in Holbrook not to just blow through town and miss the Navajo Taco at Mr. Maesta's cafe and it was fantastic! Then on the drive back to New Orleans from the Grand Canyon (and painted desert and petrified forest and all the other mandatory tourist stuff) we passed through Holbrook again and had another go at the Navajo Taco and resolved to look for a recipe on youtube to make fry bread and make it correctly, not just a deep fried flour tortilla. Well, I forgot all about it and your vid popped up in my youtube feed. So thanks for making the video! We will be making some, probably tomorrow or the next day. And of course topping them with beans, ground beef, cheese, and red chile. It's gonna be awesome.

    I’m not Native American but i grew up with something similar that was passed down through my grandparents which was frying up our yeasted bread dough just like you did with your Navaho frybread. We’d flatten yeast bread dough and fry it until golden brown and cooked in the middle then spread butter and sprinkle sugar on the hot fried bread. It’s a treat I love to make once i. A while but I’ve not yet tried this recipe. I’ve had frybread made in LaConner Washington by the local Swinomish tribe there and it was wonderful.

I thought everyone knew it. I discovered I was wrong when I moved to a city in Texas, where NOBODY EVER had heard of it or eaten it... except for the Hispanic community, where it's almost as much a staple as tacos (flour tortillas wrapped around pretty much anything that will fit and taste decent).

    Some friends and I tried 4 different recipes, this being one of them. This recipe was the best in our opinion, but the recipe was really improved by letting the dough sit for an hour and allowing the baking powder work its magic. The dough became way more fluffy and elastic (made it much easier to stretch out), and made it more chewy after frying (less crispy, so better for tacos). The other recipes we tried used extra ingredients, such as powdered milk, shortening, and yeast. The shortening one was pretty much unusable and came out like pie crust. Yeast worked well but was a fluffier, more bread like interior. Not sure that the powdered milk made much difference for the two recipes asking for it.

    During my summers of high school, I worked with my cousins at Ft. Defiance, Arizona on the Navajo Reservation, teaching VBS. We went from house to house, and hogon to hogon, inviting the Navajo children to VBS. I remember my first year, we were invited inside an old Navajo woman's hogon to ask permission for her grandkids to attend VBS. She didn't (or wouldn't) speak English. Her grade school grandson translated for us. She was sitting in the middle of the dirt floor making fry bread. She cooked on a fire bed. I was amazed and inspired by her generosity and her values in keeping the old ways alive. She looked to be around 80+ years old. Wearing multiple layers of clothing over a long thick skirt, with a pipe next to her. Outside the hogon was a blanket being weaved, draped on rods of spool woven multi-colored thread. Nothing but the hogon and several miles of dusty hillsides and hard land for her homestead. She poked a hole in the fry bread before laying it in the sizzling pan. This was to allow the spirits to pass thru. Her voice quivered as she spoke a beautiful language. She bore the years of a long hard life. Yet I felt such peace in her presence. She was happy. She was tired. She was spiritual. She offered us some fry bread as a gift of thanks. I cherish my memoirs.

    I can relate to this eighty-year-old Navajo grandmother. I'm 77 now and this year I decided to go back to long dresses or skirts layered this winter. I roll my own tobacco in cigarette papers but I do have a catalog that I buy my tobacco from and they have lots of pipes. In the past when I ran out of cigarette paper, I cut up notebook paper and it works just fine. You just have to use slobber all along the way to make it stick. I live a simple life and I am happy. I don't have the energy I used to have but then I was never one to want to run marathons. My face is weathered by the Southern California sunshine. I have an ancestor that probably walk the Trail of Tears and had their share of fry bread along the way. I think I've always been a little hard of hearing due to spending my first two months in an incubator. Learning to speak a second language later in life would be very difficult for me and frustrating for anyone trying to teach me. I tried both German and Spanish but had to give up. Unlike her I never had children, but if I did I would likewise try to pass on the old ways.

I'm Puerto Rican and I loved it! If you seasoned the flour with sazon, and pepper, etc. Made the batter more to a liquid, add bacalao (soaked in water and drained salted cod to take the salt out) and fried it, that is a bacalaito!

    You just reminded me of a favorite snack I used to make using corn tortillas and Philadelphia cream cheese. Fold the tortillas like tacos with slices of cheese. Fry with a little oil like Crisco lard bacon grease, Etc. Use spatula to keep pressing them down and turning over tell they look just right. I called them cream cheese tacos. Try different brands of tacos some are better than others.

    Awe this brings up memories! In New England we have this sold at fairs as "Fried dough". Same thing but a bit thicker. In NE we always treated it with cinnamon and sugar. When my mother made it, we'd just eat it with butter, sometimes cinnamon. When they were cold we'd cover them with peanut butter and jelly. Down in Pennsylvania they'd start calling it "Fry bread" but you'd really only be able to get it at Powwows, rarely at fairs. They'd do either butter and powdered sugar or Indian Taco style. I definitely have to try this recipe.

    I’m in Oregon and what you were saying about fried dough is known as an elephant ear. It has the cinnamon and sugar or you can get them with cream cheese a strawberry jam. We went to a buffet at a casino and they had fry bread but it looked more like a beignet and served it with a mixture of clarified butter and honey. HOLY COW 😮😮 that was absolutely delicious!!

    I once went to the Lac du Flambeau area of Wisconsin, in July, and there was a small-town 4th of July parade. The Ojibwa of that area danced in the parade, and one of the elders saw me and waved. Later that day was a pow-wow, featuring the BIGGEST fry bread I've ever seen, frying away in big iron kettles. Each was $1, and for 0.50 more, you could get a ladle full of stewed, fresh wild blueberries on it! During the pow-wow, the MC announced that the dancers would choose members of the audience for a "dancer's choice" dance. The elder man who'd seen me at the parade chose me! We danced, and we smiled, and he held my hands in his...it was a beautiful day with beautiful people, fry bread, and the memories of a lifetime.

Talk about history right before my eyes! 💞 One of my favorite places was also Monument Valley! I even met Susie Yazzie and watched her spin wool and she was working as she weaved. At one point she had me sit on the ground and she used a corn brush to brush out my hair and than but it in a traditional Navajo Bun with the wool she made from her very own hands. It was an experience of a life time. To be on such sacred ground and having such a beautiful woman share a tradition like that. My Great Great Grandmother was Cherokee. I felt like she was smiling down on me that day. Thank you for sharing your recipe! It brought back some beautiful memories! 💞

But indigenous Americans did develop the secret to nixtamalization of maize, which is an amazing process and renders the maize much more nutritious and delicious for use in baking and other types of preparations. It's unfortunate that when colonisers carried maize to other parts of the world, they did not share this process, whether through ignorance or indifference.

Europe did not flourish because of the weather, but after they became Catholic, then they've gotten the gift of intelligence, from there universities, art, engineering, etc etc reached its top... to prepare a really tasty and great pizza requires knowledge and practice... it is not just a flat dough... pathetic. It is same as saying oh the pieta de Michel Angelo Buonarotti is s piece of stone... really sad that your mother lived a life of ignorance and was transferred to you since you celebrate that! hope you will find light in your spirit soon... appreciate art... develop sensitivity for beauty... only then you will enjoy life, including food.

    I'm Mexican and I'm a 76 year old grammy. I discovered the delicious flavor of Fry Bread at a country fair in St. Charles Illinois in the 70's but there they were calling it Elephant Ears because they were as huge as a 16 inch plate and they covered them with cinnamon sugar. I was HOOKED. But then something occurred to me. We also have a very popular Mexican dessert called bunuelos. It's the same recipe as your fried bread but when they are done, we stick the bread in a thick syrup made of our Mexican PILONCILLO, you can see what that looks like by looking for it on another youtube channel. This makes the fry bread very soft and very sweet and absolutely delicious with a white ATOLE made with corn masa that has NO SUGAR so it balances the very sweet BUNUELOS. It never occurred to us in Mexico, to turn that bread in to a taco. Our Mexican tacos are very different. But please also remember that Mexico had much more territory that went up thru California, Arizona, New Mexico and more. Santa Ana sold the territories of these states to America to pay all the soldiers that he took to invade the Alamo. SO it doesn't surprise me many Navajo foods are offshoots of Mexican recipes and if you add the Muslim influence from the Moors, we developed the use of 27 spices used in MOLE LIke cinnamon. but I still love fry bread and will make them like you do. I think you're really good in making them. Others use rolling pins, but your way is authentic. I love that.
