At the turn of the century the Sicangu people were given the ingredients to make bread. In their creative nature, the women developed a fry bread recipe from those ingredients.These recipes became closely guarded secrets passed from one generation to the next. I was given this recipe by my great-grandmother to share with future generations.

In the summer of 1993, we had the idea to package and sell this family fry bread recipe. I remember that summer very well, as my mother and I would hand sew and rubber stamp muslin bags stamped with “SiouxFry Bread Mix”. We would then dry the bags overnight and begin production the following day. This process went on throughout the summer until we had enough sales to justify purchasing the muslin bags in bulk from a bag company. Wow, what a summer!

Now, years later, we have made the decision to carry on our traditional Native American fry bread recipe as Little Chief Fry Bread Mix. Our small company continues to grow, allowing us the opportunity to offer more products. We are now offering Native American herbal teas and green tea with more Native American specialty foods to come.

Through the years, our family has prepared Little Chief Fry Bread in a variety of ways, finding that it makes a great accompaniment to any meal. We encourage you to be adventurous, trying Little Chief Fry Bread Mix in new and different ways. Please share any new ideas with us here on lcspecialtyfoods.com
