Edible buffalo worms have a nutty flavour and are absolutely packed with protein. Try the freeze-dried buffalo worms lightly fried with chilli, ginger & garlic – toss through a salad for spicy, nutty crunch, or keep hot and serve with fried rice. The dried worms can also be ground in a pestle and mortar – try using the powder to add a protein boost to smoothies, or substitute a little flour for buffalo worm powder in baking! You can even snack on the buffalo worms straight from the packet. Edible insects are widely considered to be the food of the future. As a percentage of their bodyweight, insects contain more protein than any other food source. As the global population continues to grow and modern-day farming methods take their toll on the environment, farming edible insects is rapidly taking centre stage as the most sustainable method of making sure everyone has access to the nutrients they need. Eat Grub are doing their part to bring the future of sustainable food to the UK – now.
