Suaasat is a traditional Greenlandic soup. It is often made from seal, or from whale, reindeer, or sea-birds.
The soup often includes onions and potatoes and is simply seasoned with salt and pepper or bay leaf. The soup is often thickened with rice or by soaking barley in the water overnight so that the starches leach into the water.
