Iqaluich Niiaqtuat Fish That We Eat Anore Jones by Anore Jones B019T9J6W0 instant download after payment.

This report, Iqaluich Nibieaqtuat, Fish That We Eat, honors the traditional Ieupiaq
fish food wisdom of northwest Alaska. Each fish native to the study area appears along with its
Ieupiaq, English, and Latin names, a sketch, identification details, a brief life history, and
associated recipes for gathering, preparation, and use. Each recipe is presented with respect and
a genuine appreciation of the food. The directions give as much detail as possible, including
background information, enabling readers to continue creating and eating these foods forever.
The preparation techniques include raw, boiling, roasting, fermenting, drying, freezing, salting,
and pickling. Photos and sketches of fish and processes, plus personal stories, enrich the text,
along with Ieupiaq words commonly used today. The vibrant health and vigor enjoyed by past
Ieupiat came from eating the whole fish, especially the more flavorful and nutrient-dense liver,
eggs, and head. These highly nutritious traditional recipes and preservation techniques remain as
delicious and well loved today as they have always been.
