| Scope and content | A set of 25 photographs of Jemima Charles and Lydia McKenzie showing the making of bannock in a pan. Bannock can be made quickly and is ideal for life in the bush as it needs no long rising time in a warm place like bread does. -p01: Jemima has the flour ready in a mixing bowl, and the baking powder. -p02: She adds baking powder to the flour and starts mixing. -p03: Water and lard are also needed. -p04: A "well" is made in the flour ready for the water. -p05: The water is added. -p06: Jemima now adds the lard. -p07 to -p08: Mixing all the ingredients together well. -p09 to -p12: The dough is kneaded with the hands until mixed and smooth. -p13: Little Saskatchewan Charles was looking forward to the fresh bannock, but couldn't stay awake! -p14: Meanwhile, Lydia is chopping wood for the fire. -p15: Now she gets the frying pan ready. -p16: Lydia melts some lard in the pan. -p17: The bannock is laid out and pricked with a fork. -p18: She lifts the bannock into the pan. -p19 to -p20: It is placed on the fire where it will cook slowly in the embers. -p21: When the bottom is done the bannock is flipped. -p22: Jemima brings another pan to add some fresh fish to the feast! -p23: The frying pan may also be propped up to cook the bannock. -p24: Napthelie has a bannock loaf cooking on a stick. -p25: Lydia carries the fresh bannock off to be buttered and enjoyed by the whole family. | |
