Der Sioux-Chef. Indigen kochen

Fundamentally Healthy Sweet Potatoes with Maple-Chili Crunch

The first cookbook of its kind in German: Top chef from the Oglala Lakota Sioux Nation, Sean Sherman, reinvents one of the oldest and healthiest cuisines: the indigenous one. Gluten-free, dairy-free, and sugar-free recipes that are easy to replicate. Sean Sherman is an ambassador for a new indigenous self-awareness. The dishes of the Sioux chef include game meat, juniper, sage, fish, plums, and a wealth of herbs. His recipes feature grilled wild rice cakes, Three Sisters salad, and roasted corn sorbet, among others. His philosophy extends far beyond his homeland. It is a cuisine of deep connection to nature, respecting plants and animals. It emphasizes self-sufficiency, is hyper-local, ultra-seasonal, and super healthy. It is naturally low-glycemic, protein-diverse, low-salt, plant-based – and above all, absolutely delicious. With background information on indigenous cultures and traditions. Includes numerous colorful recipe photos.

"I dedicate this cookbook to our ancestors and all indigenous people who have suffered under colonialism for centuries. We, the descendants of First Nations, pass on our knowledge, our foods, and our remedies to all future generations." Sean Sherman.
