Old Fashion Navajo Fried Bread

It has been said that bread is the staff of life and I for one will not disagree with them. In the event of major disasters or emergency condition it would be highly unlikely that one could obtain loaves of bread at the local grocery store. It is also possible that you may not have electricity in order to bake your own bread. What would you do in this case? Would you go without?

It really is not necessary to deprive your family of bread when you are living under emergency conditions. I have made a number of different breads ranging from the more colorful ones containing cinnamon and various sweet spices to those that are simple and easily made. One of my all time favorites however, remains the Navajo fried bread.

Indian fried bread is a traditional food to the Navajo tribe and frequently is associated with a story which relates to the tribes past suffering. The Navajo tribe revered the earth just as their ancestors did before the time of the white man. They raised crops and tended livestock on their land which was bordered by several sacred mountains. One mountain came from the northeastern Arizona, one from the western New Mexico area and one towards the north into Utah and the state of Colorado. Their crops were grown in the fertile valley lands between these sacred mountains.
