Recipes

Grasshoppers the way Oaxaca eats them, crickets roasted whole or hidden in flour, and a batch of biscuits for the dog. Open any recipe to scale it to your table.

Before you cook: use insects raised or sold as food, and boil farm-frozen crickets for 2 minutes before roasting. Never eat wild-caught insects raw. Insects can trigger reactions in people allergic to shellfish or dust mites.
