In the one of the January health stories, Devon Mihesuah (Choctaw) was featured. She won the 2020 Gourmand World Cookbook Award Winner of the Gourmand International World Cookbook Award, for the newest edition of Recovering Our Ancestors’ Gardens and that link is to BirchBark Books.
Devon’s book includes new recipes including a lima bean hummus that I love. It also has grape dumplings and blue corn pancakes. And a ton of smart things you’ll want to read.
I’d love to feature more Native-Owned bookstores where people can order this and books by other Indigenous authors online. Send bookstore recommendations to me by clicking here.
