On this last day of National Ice Cream month, correspondent Jonathan Vigliotti is serving up a very different kind of ice cream treat. It's made up of pike fish, not exactly something you would expect to find in a dessert, but it's a key ingredient in akutaq — also known as Eskimo ice cream. Like most traditional native Alaskan dishes, it features only ingredients hunted and gathered.
