Since the 2004 opening of the National Museum of the
American Indian in Washington, DC, the museum's Mitsitam
Cafe (mitsitam means "let's eat" in the Piscataway
and Delaware languages) has become a destination in its own
right. Featured on Rachael Ray's television show and praised
by reviewers nationwide, the Mitsitam Cafecontinues to
receive accolades from both critics and
visitors. Drawing upon tribal culinary traditions from
five regions—Northern Woodlands, Great Plains, North Pacific
Coast, Mesoamerica, and South America—the cafe's offerings
feature staples that were once unknown in the rest of the
world in dishes such as: - Squash Blossom Soup
- Cedar-Planked, Fire-Roasted Salmon
- Pulled
Buffalo Sandwich with Chayote Slaw
- Corn and Tomato
Stew
- Cranberry Crumble
Replete with
beautiful photographs of the finished dishes as well as
objects and archival photographs from the museum's vast
collections, The Mitsitam Cafe Cookbook showcases the
Americas' truly indigenous foods in ninety easy-to-follow,
home-tested recipes.
