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.
Patricia Soop is a member of the Kainai Nation (Blood Tribe) of the Blackfoot Confederacy. She is a graduate of the Culinary Arts program at the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology and the founder of Soopz Kitchen, a catering company that brings Indigenous foodways together with contemporary culinary practice.
