Fry Bread
___
1 pk yeast
1T salt
2T Sugar
1C warm water(95-105 degrees)
4 eggs
1t salt
1C oil(canola/ EVOO blend, veg, canola, coconut)
2C milk
1C Sugar
8-10C A.P. Flour to start(may be more)
1-24oz/48oz cooking oil
In a container, heat water, sugar and salt to temp (95-100F), then add yeast. Lightly mix then set aside for 5 min, to allow yeast time to activate and bloom. It is ready when yeast begins agitating and burping small bubbles.
In another container mix milk, sugar, salt and oil, then heat to 95-100F (warm touch to the wrist). It’s important that it is not too hot so that it does not curdle the eggs and/or kill the yeast. Once this mixture is warm, whisk in the eggs for up to 5 mins, mix well. It is OK if it looks a little broken as soon as you stop whisking. You are just trying to be sure it is not really grainy.
Now combine the bloomed water/yeast mix and the 2nd liquid into one med/large container. Then begin adding flour, 1 cup at a time. Mix well before adding the next cup. Once 6-8 cups of flour is mixed in (it's good and sticky), dust a surface with flour and begin kneading the dough by hand. (If using a mixer, low speed only and check after adding 1 C of flour to feel the dough and ensure it is not getting overworked). Pull the dough from underneath, up, and into the center, rotating slightly with each pull. Add flour until it forms into a soft ball that indents slightly when poked but then plumps back up (similar to poking the thick of your thumb muscle). Keep adding flour and kneading until it will sit up and hold some shape on its own a little while still feeling moist. Transfer into a lightly dusted bowl at least 2x its size, and cover w/ a (damp) towel. Let is rise from the yeast to twice its size. (1-2 hrs in a warm dry place.)
Once dough has doubled in size, begin warming the oil on a low heat in a large pot. Pinch dough that fits into the palm of your hand, and roll to form the balls with all of the dough. Set aside on a tray. Once the balls are formed, turn heat on oil up to medium.
Use light pressure and rotate as you go, to roll several balls into flat circles the size of your hand spread out. Roll them thin enough to slightly see light through the dough, then poke a small hole in the middle with a finger tip. Once 3-5 flats are rolled out, drop a little tester chunk of dough to check the oil temp. Oil is good if th dough sinks briefly and then floats up and has regular bubbles coming off. If the down sinks w/o rising, the oil is too cold, immediately floating with vigorous bubbling means it may be too hot. You don’t want the oil too hot because you will burn the bread as well as give off the burnt oil taste. Have your tongs ready, and set a flat into the oil by setting an edge in close to you and drape it into the oil away from you to avoid oil splashing back. Let the bread cook on one side until you see some coloration, then flip it over, (not towards you but away from you), and repeat this until it is golden brown on each side, and cooked through. Transfer to another lined tray and cover with a towel to keep the bread warm. Continue rolling and frying until done.
Substitutions:
Milk- Coconut milk, almond milk, powdered milk
Sugar- the yeast needs sugar to start, then alternatives and/or honey (note honey will need more flour,)
Flour- Bread(higher gluten), cake, X0 flour(Gluten free), 00 flour(fine wheat high gluten) and blends

Heart goes out to the lost children and the loss of generations of culture native to this land. The fact that they are still willing to share this with the world is pure strength and grace. 🧡
I couldn't agree more. Having understanding of the real history and acknowledgement is the first steps of unification and support. It is my wish that we can now display as much strength and grace as the Native American community and all indigenous communities.
Almost ended my REI membership when I saw her put "dairy", eggs, & yeast into that dough.
Like she said it's a survival food, so down in Arizona we make it with 3 ingredients and grandma better not see a hole in that thing or you're in trouble.
Great video though, love to see REI working with Indigenous people.
Right on. Thanks, Terrell!
I'm really glad you explained that Natives make their fry bread All Different Ways, All Different Ingredients. Very True. Even within the same tribe but different areas they are located on the Reservation they make it different. Our Navajo Frybread is mostly just made up of Blue Bird Flour, Baking Powder, Salt and the Warm-Hot water. 👍 Thank you for making this video Chef & Friends. Also your apron is Beautiful. 🍂🙏
Always happy to see more content from Maria!! She just seems like a wholesome, genuine human being.
Thanks, Hannah! Yes, Maria's pretty fantastic!
Thank you Hannah! I very much appreciate it.
In Chile we have the same, its called “sopaipilla” happy to see similar food across the world 🤟🏻
Yes! Thanks for that delicious mention. 😃
Thank you for sharing Michael!
Love hearing from the wisdom keepers and learning from Bobbie.
Hi Linda! Thanks for watching!🙂
It's quite the honor, isn't it Linda? I feel the same way.
Ahh this episode was excellent! Thank you again Bobbie for sharing your culinary heritage with us ❤️❤️. I knew a little about the origins of fry bread, but learned a LOT from this video.
It is absolutely true that America has an extremely long way to go in recognizing the state-sponsored trauma, pain and yes genocide of so many Native peoples. Some of us are struggling to get to a place where we truly recognize our own history… but sadly, others of us are doubling down on ignorance and hate instead.
Kudos to REI for finding so many positive ways to help spread a message of respect and recognition. It’s a tough thing to do in today’s world. I for one will stay tuned to be a part of this community.
Thanks for watching! 🙌😎
Ohhh yeah. I live in New Mexico and I can get the most delicious fry bread within minutes of my house. Nom nom nom.
That sounds awesome!!🙌
@@rei it is. Was actually going to get some from the food truck by my house today, but they were closed. Going there tomorrow. 😉
love me some frybread! everyone makes it different but almost the same. I'm san poil from same rez as her and that bread looked awesome! looks like I'm tweaking mine some more haha!
Thanks for tuning in, Ray!👍
That's just wonderful Ray!
Love your collaborations Bobbie and Maria! The history, the reverence the beautiful food made with such love and appreciation. Thank you for this lovely video.
Hey Lori! Thanks for watching!🙂
Thank you Lori. It was such an honor and privilege.
Thank you so much for sharing the history Please do more videos
Thanks for watching, Perry! We've really enjoyed working with Bobbie Mollenberg, and everyone from the Colville Confederated Tribes, to bring the last couple of videos to our online community.
Thanks Perry. We promise to make more. Please help spread the word by sharing the video with as many folks as ya can, so we can continue to produce content for years to come.
That bread looks so yum!!
Yes! You have to try it!
Well done.
Love the great recipes as well as the history you share!
Thank you Carmen!
Love the show. You are making me hungry
Thanks John! They've been such a pleasure to create!
I get these every time I go to a powwow
Thank you, Chef Maria and guests. 🧡
Thank you Katy, for watching.
I volunteered on the Colville 15 to 20 years, I knew of the atrocities and prayed for the people to heal, it is a long process. When my Colville friends mom died we found a note tucked away about the day the water came filling the river so fast, they ran for their lives, many ppl did not speak English or understand the warnings posted by the military. Their only defense was run for the hills.It seems to me that forcible removable because of the dam was probably an act of war to subdue the people, as was mentioned. I watched this video because of fry bread, my favorite!, but received an incredible revelation, I have apologized for the many wounds inflicted on the people by our nation and others but today my spirit cried out loudly for the people and I could only weep out loud again. I am old now and feeble at times but I still treasure my life spent with the Colville. Lemlem
Love your videos, chef Maria! They’re always so interesting and I am grateful for the opportunity to learn the context of the food through the history and social awareness that you weave into your stories. Thank you so much! ❤️🙏🏻❤️
We appreciate you watching and sharing your thoughtful reflections.
OMG, you nailed it! Thank you for understanding my vision. I hope to just get better at it. :)
My gran would fight you over fry bread and how to make it correctly. I have my own way of making it and it's pretty easy and it's always delicious.
We hope that you and your gran have a truce! ❤️😄
Nothing better than a passionate cook!
I love this showwwwwwwww
Glad to hear that, Robert!🙌
Beautiful fry bread!
We agree!
I think the hole is to keep it from puffing up, like a beignet or sopaipilla. Fry bread tends to be flat (in my experience)!
Oh that makes great sense!
Finally a native making fry bread not a YT person
you two taught me so much, how to comfort a deep hurt, how to talk about the history of fry bread, and how to make the fry bread. beautiful
Thank you so much for this incredible show, and for not shying away from the ugly truths about what settler colonialism has done (and continues to do) to Indigenous folk.
Definitely eager to watch the rest of the series-- fingers crossed maybe there'll even be one talking about Taino food traditions? That would mean so much to me, so keep it in mind REI if you haven't already! 💛
Hey Megan - thanks for the suggestion!🙂👍
Hi Chef, I live in New Mexico. My family makes sopapillas (which are simular to fry bread) - I like making both. Fry bread / Sopapillas are enjoyed by everyone during the Pueblo Feast Days and during our Fiestas. Thank you for sharing - I love your channel.
Thank you for that moment of silence. Children were taken from their families. Treated in the worst ways. Then they were left to die alone and scared.
Yup every nation/family has their way of making fry bread wether it’s with or without milk (powdered milk) instead of water, with yeast instead of baking soda/powder, with oil or no oil, with eggs or without etc. The list goes on…
I loved this video, Apart of my culture as well, love fry bread !! 💕💕💕💕💕
DALIAHLA THE KITTY SAYS GIVE MARIEA A PAW UP
Thank you I love this
YUMMMMM YESSSSSSSSS PLEASE LOOKS SOOOOOOOO DELISH, CRAVING SOME NOW, THANKS FOR SHARING YOUR RECIPE

I came to remember fry bread and ended up with great documentary
I had heard the Canadian gov used tactics on First Nations with some as late as 1960 & 70s.
❤❤❤❤❤ I love you family.
First nation ❤❤❤❤
I just gained 10lbs watching this lol

I saw the fry bread mix available in the Native American Museum store
Fry bread in NM has no eggs, milk or yeast; it has baking powder, flour salt lard and hot water.
We’re Haliwa saponi our fried bread doesn’t have a hole in it, very interesting
Hello from Arizona I have never seen Fried Bread made this way. Looks more of a thick biscuit or donut instead of flatter fried bread I’m used to seeing from the Navajo or Apache Native Americans here in the Southwest. I’ve learned different tribes make fried bread differently. However it looks delicious. Thanks for sharing ❤
I've never seen eggs in it. But agreed different than yalls, first time I was that way I was like what's this light skinned naan paper bread 😂😂😂
That looks just like fry bake we have in Tobago
When i make fry bread i think. Of those story
i would like to know the recipe for the stew. Thanks
i taught you eveything
Can you make the dough and put it in the fridge for frying later?
I have so much respect for the Native way. If settlers listened to them. I don't think climate change would be as fast moving. As for hunting Natives only took what they needed. History books should be rewritten and the truth be told.
Fry bread goes well with pork and puha
🤙🤙🤙
Hey black folks you wonder where you got the ideal to make jiffy corn patties. They (meaning natives taught us). So when you see people taking cornbread and frying it in a cast iron skillet. Theses are the people who taught us and help us to survive!!!!! My great grandma was half or three quarters. I know natives hate hearing that stuff. Buy my Nanny made a lot of natural native dishes as well as southern soul foods and a combination.
SEMPER FI
didn't know warming milk and egg i always seen pappie warm milk and sugar
I don't think I've had native American fried bread.😋
Give it a try sometime! 😁👍
Okay, maybe someday.🙃
Hines. Urrrrrr look like 100 years old.
Where is the recipe?
Ingredients, quantities, temps etc?
Hi Michael, If you look in the description of the video you'll find what you're looking for.

Most horrific part of our history as human beings there are no words it was just despicable
