So, what is qivuit?
Qivuit is a rare and luxurious food ingredient made from the undercoat of the muskox. Known for its incredible softness and warmth, qivuit is highly prized by Arctic communities for its durability and insulation properties. Harvested by hand during the spring molting season, the wool is then spun into yarn and used to make a variety of clothing and accessories. Qivuit has a subtle, delicate flavor that pairs well with sweet and savory dishes alike. Due to its limited availability and high cost, qivuit is considered a delicacy among food enthusiasts and connoisseurs.
