How To Eat Every Insect | Method Mastery | Epicurious
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Please be advised that like certain shellfish, some people may be unable to safely consume insects due to dietary allergies.
Take a deep breath and come prepared with an open mind because today Joseph Yoon from Brooklyn Bugs is teaching us how to eat (almost) every edible insect there is. Now, we know what you're thinking - aren't tarantulas and scorpions arachnids, not insects? Also, why are you doing this Epicurious? First, yes but come on. And second - trust us. A vital and ecologically important world of food can be yours to enjoy with just a little guidance.

Thank you to everyone who took the time to watch or comment. While a personal motivation and inspiration for my work is derived from finding sustainable solutions for feeding the burgeoning population of the world, it is also really fascinating and delicious! There are over two thousand species of edible insects with wildly different flavor profiles, textures, and functionality--as a chef, think about how fun it is for me to work with so many new ingredients! Let me leave you with this thought - if even ten percent of you ate edible insects just once a week, even that would have a great impact on the environment. Respectfully yours, Chef Joseph Yoon

You say that, but I promise you've eaten something with a similar flavor profile and weren't bothered, so if you got over the mental block, you'd be fine. I felt the same way, but at this point, I've eaten snails and crickets myself. Crickets, when fried and flavored with things like 'salt and vinegar' or 'cheese powder' honestly just taste like tiny potato chips. Same crunch, no lie. As for snails, I swear to you, they taste SO MUCH like clams. If you like clam chowder at all, and if someone made it with snails without telling you, you wouldn't think anything of it.

I once had to proctor a test for a nutritional studies professor who'd brought in a bag of cricket-flour cookies for her class to try. She looked a little bummed that so few people wanted to try them, so I went up and gave it a shot to embolden more people. It really isn't bad! The chitin flakes definitely stick in your mouth a little bit, kinda like the papery outside of peanuts, but the flavor is like sunflower seeds.

In Brazil we do have some insects in our culinary, mainly the queen ant "tanajura" abdomen fried in a farofa. Actually, I tried crickets once on a research, where they were repeating the testings (us trying crickets) on different places around the world to see the acceptance of people around consuming insects. The crickets would be better with seasoning, cause without them they taste like dog food.

The phrase "his truth" and/or "my truth" clearly tell me that it's not actually true So people talk about how bugs have an amazing amount of protein compared to meat or other foods, the way we ESTIMATE protein in food is by nitrogen content. Bugs, by mass, contain a huge amount of chitin, the exoskeletons of crickets and the skin of worms and stuff, and chitin is a polysaccharide with amine groups attached, so it's got a pile of nitrogen in it. It is completely indigestible and it's NOT protein. Some may say the people measuring protein content wouldn't make that mistake, but obviously we can't trust them to accurately represent their findings, they're the people telling you to eat boogs after all. Incidentally, chitin is an antigen in humans, it causes an immune reaction because the body uses its presence to infer a parasite or a yeast infection, so whilst it won't inherently "give you" cancer or any other disease, eating lots of chitin would very likely reduce your immune response to other illnesses.

I don’t know about you guys but I would literally eat everything this made just made it looks incredibly delicious. Although I never ate insects before.
Honestly, yeah- I'm convinced. It's a little hard to find many of these but crickets and ants were two you had me more excited for and those were pretty easy to order in food grade quality. I have to admit, being someone who doesn't even like jello - bamboo worms are something I'm still going to decline but the rest of these? Yep, would definitely be inclined to at least try if properly prepared
Just one note: when Chef Yoon says that scorpions are not insects, but arthropods, like shrimps, I would like to say that both insects and crustaceans are arthropods, and scorpions are, in fact, arachnids, and belong to the phylum arthropods as well.

Insects do tend to have a somewhat nutty flavor profile though. They're not all the same. Like, you wouldn't confuse an almond for a walnut. But there is that kind of earthy-woody quality that gives nuts their flavor, which insects share. Its legit food, if you can shake off your cultural biases.

I've eaten snails and crickets myself. Crickets, when fried and flavored with things like 'salt and vinegar' or 'cheese powder' honestly just taste like tiny potato chips. Same dry crunch, no lie. As for snails, I swear to you, they taste like clams. If you like clam chowder at all, and if someone made it with snails without telling you, you wouldn't think anything of it.
A really popular food at gas stations where I live is lollipops with crickets in them. I’ve also gotten chocolate covered scorpions at the same gas stations
I will definitely try everything you cook for me! When I'm in Asia I hope to try a lot new foods under which of course insects

For everybody commenting about how they don’t dislike the idea, and the benefits make eating insects worth it, but being scared of bugs, it is worth noting that what he did with crickets already has another use. Grinding crickets up into a powder allows them to be used as flour, and then baked into a protein-rich bread. It’s a great way to consume insects without knowing it’s insects!
