Tell us about the "Bugs for Beginners" project
Bugs for Beginners is an introductory cookbook, explaining to US Americans and Europeans where to buy and how to cook edible insects. It is a pure cookbook—I keep the text to a minimum, and just focus on the recipes. There's a lot—86 recipes—and about half of them were submitted by other companies, chefs, and influencers, within the entomophagy industry. Most of the recipes are of very easy and familiar dishes, but I am confindent that even someone who already knows alot about cooking or edible insects can learn something new; like how to roll a Vietnamese spring roll, for example.
