Čamus: West Coast Cooking Nuu-chah-nulth Style

ByUu-a-thluk (Nuu-chah-nulth Tribal Council Fisheries Department)

Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
In Camus, (pronounced “chum-us”) First Nations families from the west coast of Vancouver Island and northern Washington share the wisdom and riches of their traditional territories. Marrying modern and traditional cuisine with community cooking tips, cultural observations, and oral history anecdotes, Camus features wild and purchased ingredients for a mouthwatering read. Instructions include how to prepare wild foods such as fish, kelp, berries, and fowl. The cookbook also explores the First Nations art of how to “butterfly” a salmon, how to can fish, as well as recipes for marinated seaweed, steam pit cooking, smoked fish, and shellfish. Wholeheartedly endorsed by Nuu-chah-nulth hereditary chiefs, Camus illuminates a way of eating while promoting a healthy lifestyle. Proceeds from the sales of this book will go to supporting capacity building programs for youth and others in Nuu-chah-nulth Nations.
