carbohydrate and recipes include both regular and reduced sugar
versions. Coconut flour provides many health benefits. It can
improve digestion, help regulate blood sugar, protect against
diabetes, help prevent heart disease and cancer, and aid in weight
loss.
Ever been tempted by the thought of trying juicy deep fried
mealworms, proteinrich cricket flower, or swapping your Walkers for
salt and vinegar flavoured grasshoppers? If so then you are not
alone! Over 2 billion people regularly eat insects as part of their
diet, and the world is home to around 1,900 edible insect species.
For adventurous foodies and daring dieters comes the newest way to
save the planet, eat more protein, and tickle taste buds. But this
isn't an insect cookbook. Instead it's an informative field guide:
exploring the origins of insect eating, offering tips on finding
edible bugs and serving up a few delicious ideas of how to eat them
once you've tracked them down! It includes a comprehensive list on
edible insects and where to find them, how to prepare them, their
versatile usage and nutritional value as well as a few recipes. A
bug-eating checklist covering all known edible bugs so readers can
mark off the ones they've eaten and seek out new delicacies
concludes the book. This is a perfect introduction to the weird,
wonderful, and adventurous side of entomophagy.
