Bead Clan Kitchen
Приєднався 6 жов 2020
Yá’át’ééh! In our Diné way of introduction, I am Yoo'í Dine'é - Bead Clan. Kin Yaa’áanii dashizhé’é dóó dashicheii dóó Tódích’íí’nii dashinálí. Towering House and Bitter Water Clans are my fathers and grandparents. In the Western world, my name is Jennifer Jackson Wheeler, and I am from the Navajo Nation. I am simply demonstrating in our Diné language how to make various traditional and modern foods. Not only do I love cooking and baking for my family, friends, and community, but I am a strong advocate of sustaining and revitalizing our Indigenous languages. Immersion is the best way to learn a language, and I am providing this opportunity for our Diné people to start conversations and discussions with family and friends to learn these recipes. Nihizaad bídahwiil’aah dóó bee yéíilti’go náás yiilyééł. Again, all my videos are in our beautiful Diné language. Welcome to my Bead Clan Kitchen. Enjoy.
Chąąsht’ezhii - Wild Carrot/Celery
Chąąsht’ezhii grows abundantly on the Navajo Nation, or it used to, anyway. It looks like a carrot but tastes like celery. Its harvest time is in early spring. When the leaves just begin to grow, it is tastiest and sweetest. The bigger the leaves get, the wild carrot tastes bitter. Either way, it is a common childhood snack for many of us. Here's a modern touch of it. Enjoy.

Переглядів 2,7 тис.3 роки тому
I saw a sale on beets today and thought I'd make dinner with it. I love beets. When I was a younger, at Many Farms Elementary School, my friends would not eat their beets for lunch. They always scooped their servings onto my lunch tray. Sweet memories.

Dahistin is made with blue corn, juniper ash and water. The best way to make this is with winter's freezing temperatures in Grandma's chaha'oh.

Naayízíłchí’í - Pumpkin
Переглядів 2,6 тис.3 роки тому
Naayízíłchí’í náádahasdlíí’. I love pumpkin season just as much as white corn season! We never used canned pumpkin when I was little; I didn’t even know they existed until I was older (we didn’t have everything at Many Farms Trading Post, you know 😊). We always used pumpkin from the cornfield to prepare lots of goodies. The best memory, however, was sitting at the table with Grandma and my sist...

Many years ago, after my sophomore year in high school, I visited my aunt, uncle, and family. They had a giant apple tree in the front yard, and Aunty and I spent the summer baking apple pies in the 100-degree humidity, an...

Our people refer to this plant as ch’il ahwéhé or dééh. It is common across our homeland and is seasonal during summer. It is enjoyed hot or cold, as shown here. My late nálii, paternal grandmother, always made it for us grandchildren when we stayed with her during the summer time. At night, she boiled some tea for us and lit the kerosene lamp as we gathered around her table for jigsaw puz...

Hello! Thank you for your recipe. I just wanted to ask, how much tablespoons of butter did you include for one batch?
I usually add one stick of butter (8 tablespoons) to one batch.
Nizhoní!
❤ Thank you
What can be used to enhance the flavor instead of the wine?
Extra lemon juice should do. :)
Wants again thanks for your teaching. Very respectful to our elders. That's one thing I never learn how to do it. Enjoyed listening to ur Video. Many blessings to you😊.
I've enjoyed watching ur Video. Those are so cute, lit'l tamales. I wouldn't mind trying it. Thank you so much, appreciate you😙
My late nalii aszdaa would bring this to our home in Salt Lake when I was a child and it was one of my favorite treats. I haven't had it in many years.
A very beautiful lady I never saw blue corn like that 💙
Nizhonii, I'm learning quite a bit of cooking and the Dine' language. Thank you much.
You did a beautiful job and I am thoroughly impressed! No English, all done in Navajo! I live in the city and truly miss talking in dine’ and hearing the language spoken, thank you so much - I choked up hearing you speak and seeing you make this beautiful cake (I can almost taste it... lol)!
Thank you for your interest.
Thank you for sharing
I wish the Navajo Nation would mass produce these indigenous ingredients, it would be easier to create these recipes. Thus creating farming jobs, and preserving these recipes with the modern times. I love chiłchin, but I can't find it anywhere.
Nihoni! Ahee Hee.
Looks yummy!! I’ve never had mussels , but this looks so good. I would definitely like to try ur recipe.
Wow!!! That is awesome!!
I would buy those! They look so good!!
Thank you... its been so long my gma left an had tht. I'm try it on my own
Nizhoni doo ah'hee. Was looking on making this, 1st attempt wasn't tht good. I'm try this now
Nizhoni shi'yazhi
Beautiful Language!!!
Thank you for sharing your grandma teaching. Much respect to all grandparents. I enjoy your teaching us traditional cooking and sharing stories of family. Family is important and continue your tradition. Not everyone has that.
Ahéheé my daughter cake came out beautiful, thank you 🙏🏽
❤❤❤❤
✔👍❤
It's been quite awhile I had beans w/steamed corn. My late mom used to do it that way. Very interesting. I need to buy me a pot like that. Thank you & I enjoyed ur Video.
Kneel down bread is my favorite 😊
Nizhoni hey..nizhoni...
Daago łikaan goh įįn'la hey 👌👌
What?!?!?! This sounds interesting
That was so awesome!!! Made me tear up a little 🥲. I miss my mom and grandma telling me stories on why we have these ceremonies and traditions. Especially when told in Diné. Thank you 🙏❤️
Wow! Yup, I loved Commodity Cheese, it's hard to find cheese which is given out to people. Very seldom someone will offer you cheese. That looks yummy!!
Very interesting, I very much enjoyed it. Going step by step that's what I like. Yummy, looks delicious. 😉
Yummy! Looks delicious, havn' t had Navajo Taco for quite awhile now. Enjoyed watching ur Video 👍.
You need to add real chili
Thanks for Sharing! NIZHONI ye....
