I've lived on the Seneca Nation of Indians Reservation now for over 35 years and used to always get this bread when I went to the annual pow wows. This is an authentic Seneca (A tribe of the Iroquois Federation) recipe and is good to eat either warm or cold. I enjoy taking several to work to snack on during the day.

This recipe is a fail. The bread was dry and tasteless.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my bread didn't turn out as light and fluffy as I hoped. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This bread is a bit denser than I expected, but it's still very good. The flavor is great.
