Adapted from a recipe in The Art of American Indian Cooking
.
St. Kateri Tekakwitha was from the Mohawk Indian tribe. Pine nuts played an important part in Indian cuisine. The Mohawk name Adirhon'dak means "tree eaters". Even pine needles were used, as they were a good source of Vitamin C. You can try making pine needle tea using this recipe.
