For my final project, I made panbread for everyone (in Shoshone, neme tekkappeh, in Paiute, numu tukabu, sometimes called Indian Bread, I guess up north in Canada (BC, AB) they call it Bannock), which is the old-school way to make bread besides ash bread, which you would still find in southern Utah/Arizona, and it actually predates the frybread that we eat. My grandparents taught me how to make this bread, and I got better with practice. You can eat it for dinner, usually we have it for hamburger potatoes, sometimes spaghetti, or when we make beans, you can eat it for lunch, and you could make a breakfast sandwich out of it.
This is a food that's not really cooked that much anymore since everyone just makes frybread all the time, but it's usually the older ones that still make it. You'd need a really strong oven to cook it because you have to cook it at 500 for about an hour. It was hard to make it in the Muwekma kitchen since there's no broil option 😪😪 but it was a fun experience sharing bread with all of you, glad you all liked it
