Raw Buried Seal is Key to Inuit Delicacy

Here’s a lovely sounding recipe from the Innuit living in Greenland.

1. Take one dead seal.

2. Remove the organs.

3. Stuff the cavity with unplucked, unskinned auks of similar birds.

4. Bury.

5. Wait several months.

6. Exhume.

7. Enjoy!

So far, this has been the high point of the book Extremes: Surviving the World’s Harshest Environments by Nick Middleton. I’m really enjoying all of it, but nothing beats the look of sheer incredulity on people’s faces when I divulge that excerpt. I highly recommend it.
