 Pemmican - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pemmican is a concentrated food consisting of dried pulverized meat, dried berries, and rendered fat.
The specific ingredients used in it were usually whatever was available; the meat was often bison, moose, elk, or deer, the fruit saskatoon berries, though cherries, currants, chokeberries and blueberries were also used.
The very best pemmican is made from lean meat and bone marrow fat; the pemmican buyers of the fur trade era had strict specifications.

 Experiments in Pemmican Preparation
For the meat to be ground to a powder, it would have to be dried and cooked to a carbon state.
Excess drying of the meat lowered the quality of the pemmican and was considered a waste.
However, the stage for pemmican preparation took place when it was noted that melted fat, suet, marrow grease and tallow could be preserved by storing in sealed containers such as bladders and intestines.

Pemmican is a combination of pound meat and rendered fat, often with fruit added.
In some regions fish pemmican was made by pounding dried fish, mixed often with sturgeon oil, but it was more usual, as it is now among the Crees, for the pounded fish and the fish oil to be kept separately, the oil in animal bladders.
Frying the pemmican in its own fat resulted in what was called rousseau (or rechaud or richot) and to it also might be added some flour or a suitable wild plant for flavour.

 Manitoba Pageant: A Story of Beat Meat (Pemmican)
A thin soup, made with pemmican and water, was called "Rubaboo," a word which may be from the Red River or "Bungi" dialect, or from the corruption by the English of "Rauchau," the voyageurs' name for a pan-fried mixture of pemmican, flour and water.
Its root is sometimes given as "pemmican - the Cree word for lean and fat." There is however no such word as pemmican in the Cree (meaning lean and fat), but close enough phonetically to strike a parallel is the word "pimekan" - fat and pounded dried meat mixed up.
In the north, however, where the making of pemmican was largely a family affair and never a major factor in the provisioning of the fur brigades, the dried and powdered meat was made from several different animals - deer, elk, moose, caribou, and muskox - and fish.
