Cooking with Ben Jacobs
Coming together to cook and enjoy food is one of the most powerful ways to celebrate and preserve cultural heritage. Check out the videos below for cooking demonstrations from Council Member Ben Jacobs, renowned chef and tribal member of the Osage Nation, and get his recipes for healthy meals using traditional ingredients. Ben’s recipes rely on native foods like the “three sisters” (corn, beans, and squash), wild rice, and turkey — and they’re as simple to make as they are delicious!
