Next steps for Indian cheese: . I tried it, and it's delicious! ✨ . This evening, I removed the skeins from the sticks and we ground them. Usually, they would be cut up, but I let them dry a little too long, so grinding was the better option. . After grinding, we pressed the cheese down into a hard block inside the tub. Traditionally it was wrapped in skunk cabbage leaves instead of a tub. . Dad mentioned that his aunties and grandma would generally allow it to age more after forming it into a block so we will follow that direction and will cover it and let it sit a little longer, although it won’t age very much now that it’s been smoked. . If we get more eggs, Dad would like to make another batch and age them longer before smoking, as this batch is milder than he prefers. We would also let it dry for a shorter time after the smoking process so it can be cut up with a knife instead of ground. . . . . . . . . . . #indigenous #salmonroe #tlingit #fishing #foodshare #alaska #eatwild #roe #southeastalaska #cohosalmon #fermentedfoods #meateater #salmonrecipe #fermentation #coho #fermentedfood #traditionalfood #wildsalmon #landback #wildcaught #wildfood #traditionalmeal #recipeshare #fishrecipe #fishrecipes #foodshare #seafoodrecipes #recipeoftheday #indigenousfood #sustainableliving
