 UGNARAT
NEQAIT-MOUSE FOOD
Fall is the season I start picking mouse
foods. Most mouse food is found under the soft ground of the tundra.
We have to step on the ground to try and find it. Three types of
mouse food are: "UTNGUNGSAAT", "MARALLAT", AND "IITAT":
 UUTNGUNGSAAT
We boil "UTNGNUNGSAAT" for awhile until
they're soft. We eat them with seal oil. Eating them with seal oil
will satisfy your stomach. Besides eating "UTNGUNGSAAT" with seal
oil, we also can add tomcod eggs or liver to them. It is very tasty
this way.
 MARALLAT-YUPIK
POTATOES
"MARALLAT" are Yupik potatoes that are
also mouse food. We boil "MARALLAT" until they are soft just like we
boil "UTNGUNGSAAT". After boiling them, we pour out the broth of the
soup and eat the cooked "MARALLAT" in our bowls. We can eat them with
dry fish or other Yupik food too. It tastes very good that
way.

IITAT
"IITAT" is another type of mouse food.
They are long and dark in color. "IITAT" are eaten by mice but we
also eat them because they are very nutritious. The Yupik people have
eaten mouse food since long ago. First, we have to clean "IITAT" very
good before cooking them, then we boil them. Then we cut them up and
add them to salmon berries for akutaq. We also cook "IITAT" with
tomcod livers and with other types of mouse food. We can also add
them to seal meat. We start picking mouse food in the tundra in late
September. And also in early October. Girls and women pick "IITAT".  They
dig them from the tundra and put them in their grass baskets. Only
the women work with "IITAT". They boil them and other types of mouse
food for lunch and supper. They make a delicious soup.
