Quotations

1913

The visiting tribe also has the privilege of demanding any delicacy . . . which fancy may suggest. This usually takes the form of meat out of season, or Eskimo "ice-cream"--a concoction of reindeer tallow, blueberries, and chunks of whitefish kneaded in the snow until it is frozen.

1962

Eskimo Ice Cream. Grind up cooked meat. Melt tallow and while still warm mix well by hand. Keep adding meat until not able to stir anymore. This is good to eat with meat and bread . . . Sadie Simon.
