Egg nog, ham and sugar cookies are some of the delicious, go-to highlights of the holiday season. But they do not come from Indigenous traditions. So many food choices during holidays were introduced to Native America by European settlers. The good news is there are choices that are just as delicious and bring authenticity to Native celebrations. We’ll get ideas from Native chefs about how to make that happen in our own kitchens.
Guests:
Vince Johnson (Red Lake Nation) – chef
Nico Albert (Cherokee Nation citizen) – executive chef of Duet Restaurant and Jazz club, Indigenous foods caterer and educator
Lisa Iron Cloud (Oglala Lakota) – educator
