Seneca Ghost Bread

---

I've lived on the seneca nation of indians reservation now for over 35 years and used to always get this bread when i went to the annual pow wows. This is an authentic seneca (a tribe of the iroquois federation) recipe and is good to eat either warm or cold. I enjoy taking several to work to snack on during the day.
