Join Sherrie Cruz of Sheri’s Traditional Foods to learn the art of making Tohono O’odham fry bread. Growing up on the Tohono O’odham reservation in Santa Rosa Village, Sherrie learned how to make fry bread from her mother and grandmother. Today, she continues the tradition for her children and grandchildren.
A beloved staple, fry bread is both delicious and versatile. It can be enjoyed as a sweet treat topped with honey, powdered sugar, or cinnamon, or as the base for hearty dishes like red chili or savory tacos with heaps of beans, beef, lettuce, tomato, and cheese. Sherrie will walk participants through the process of making fry bread from scratch and assist everyone in frying the dough. Participants will take away 3-4 pieces of fry bread and Sherrie's recipe to make more at home.
