Soopz Kitchen: Indigenous Meets Gourmet

By Patricia Soop

Soopz Kitchen: Indigenous Family Recipes and Stories blends food, story, and the art of gathering. Chef Patricia Soop, a SAIT culinary graduate and founder of a successful Calgary, Alberta catering company, draws on her Blood Tribe roots within the Blackfoot Confederacy to present five curated menus: Celebration, Romance, Elders Tribute, Harvest & Gathering, and Homecoming. Each complete menu features dishes such as sasquatch stew, fry bread, bison bites, berry-braised short ribs, saskatoon berry soup, and inventive mocktails. Traditional teachings from Blackfoot Knowledge Keeper Crystal Many Fingers illuminate the cultural meaning behind the foods and feasts. More than a cookbook, Soopz Kitchen invites readers to gather, honour, and celebrate through food.
