Pueblo Bread

(Kiis’áanii Bread)

Pueblo bread is a traditional bread originating from New Mexico, where it's usually prepared by Native Pueblo tribes. The bread is made with a combination of wheat flour, lard or butter, water, and a pinch of salt. The dough is kneaded and left to rise overnight, and in the morning it's baked in a beehive-shaped outdoor oven known as a horno.
