Banock
What we did with our junior wildlife kids, is we took sticks simillar to wiener roast sticks, wraped the banock dough around the end of the stick, held it over the fire till golden brown, pulled it off the stick and filled with jam. That way the kids looked after there own dinner!! :eyebrows
When we paddled down the Missinaibi River to Moose Factory/Moosonee we stopped in Moose Factory (a Cree village and one of the original sites of a Hudsons Bay post) .The Native women had tepees set up around town and were cooking and selling bannock. It was a cold rainy day and we stopped in more than one for the treat.
The bannock was simply flour, lard, baking powder and water. It was made into a dough and the dough was formed like a long cigar or a small french baguette around the end of cooking sticks. The sticks were 3' long, cleaned of bark and shaped like an egg in cross section. They had the look of being used often.
The sticks were propped in a circle around the small fire with the lady turning them when needed. When done a simple twist of the bannock would break it loose from the stick and it would slide off easily.
They were served with your choice of jam, sugar or peanut butter.
the conversation around the fire was interesting also. Talking about their village, life on James Bay and how things have changed in the area.
