How Nunavut cooks
Nunavut's food culture is overwhelmingly Inuit. Country food — Arctic char, caribou, marine mammals and gathered plants — is central and carries deep cultural meaning. Only publicly documented, culturally appropriate preparations are recorded here, always with community context and never sensationalised.
