I'm not a big fan of arugula, but that looks like a really good mix.

It’s arugula (just a small amount) with cucumber, tomatoes, grated carrot, red bellpepper, maize, red onion, freshly plucked basil, sesame seeds, pepper salt, dried oregano and dried basil and bunch of olive oil. If you were to chop up the arugula and not get bites with one or more whole leaves it should be fine for people who don’t like arugula as much as I do
Thing is we buy a big 1euro bag of arugula for one dish and then have plenty left for others. Oakleaf would work well as an alternative imo. I‘m not a big lettuce /leafy greens fan at all so it’s got to have something special.
Very messy but delicious nonetheless.
I like cheap wine that doesn’t suck. Feels like a win everytime.
Hey, if all our taste buds were the same then we'd all consume the same stuff.It’s arugula (just a small amount) with cucumber, tomatoes, grated carrot, red bellpepper, maize, red onion, freshly plucked basil, sesame seeds, pepper salt, dried oregano and dried basil and bunch of olive oil.

Eat & Drink what you like my friend - no one should tell you you're wrong for liking something.

I don't care for Arugula either which is why I don't grow it in the garden. I also don't like anything goat but that seems to be popular as many just rave about goat cheese.
On the flip side I absolutely love kimchi and can eat bowls of it plain. But if I try and offer that to someone they head for the exit. They go into panic mode when I start to open a jar. I've never understood the hatred for kimchi but it is real.
I've also eaten Durian which many find completely revolting. While I didn't really care for it I never thought it was as bad as many make it out to be and it's enjoyed by millions.
What tastes good to one person might not taste good to another. Bottom line is, if it tastes good then eat it.

Shoulda gone for the oogruk
Never tried bearded seal but it probably tastes much the same as harbor seal which is a very dark & strong tasting meat.

The oogruk hunter walks out onto the ice looking for a breathing hole- when he finds one he stands with spear at the ready, sometimes for hours, waiting for a seal to appear

I don't think that was ever eaten because it was a culinary delicacy but more out of necessity. I don't know why people would still eat it today other than to preserve the tradition or for ceremonial purposes. I've heard it tastes pretty bad but I'd eat it if that's all I had to eat. Fortunately that's not the case.
It is still eaten because of it's really high caloric content due to the fat - but why it is fermented is beyond me!
But then again there is "Stink Head" and "Stink Eggs".
Equally disgusting.
Stinkheads
Stinkheads is the dish that made of salmon. Salmon is a staple of the native Alaskan diet and the natives have traditionally used all parts of the fish. One of the traditional delicacies is ferment…

I know that smell when you crack open a fermenting kimchi.I don't care for Arugula either which is why I don't grow it in the garden. I also don't like anything goat but that seems to be popular as many just rave about goat cheese.

If you’re not the one craving/eating it, it can be revolting.
It’s not one where the smell makes you hungry.
Tasty as all hell though.

This is too pretty for a tomato sauce.
I’m thinking pesto.
