你知道嗎?很多昆蟲都是很棒的蛋白質(zhì)來源,而且都是非洲人喜愛的美食。

比如南非人就很喜歡吃可樂豆蟲,這是一種個大、飽滿、鮮美多汁的毛毛蟲,蛋白質(zhì)含量是牛肉的3倍。(畫面驚悚,我就不放圖了,大家可以自行腦補(bǔ)丁滿吃蟲子的畫面)

這種毛毛蟲不光營養(yǎng)豐富,而且挺便宜,油炸、燉菜、做肉干,怎么樣都好吃。

這種飲食方式在非洲挺常見的,之前有看旅游博主寫的東非游記,說街邊賣的油炸毛毛蟲吃起來和龍蝦一樣。

Eating worms doesn’t sound like the best idea but in South Africa many locals relish the thought of Mopane worms, the caterpillar of a large species of emperor moth. Mopane worms can be eaten dry and crunchy as a snack, or soaked and cooked served with a sauce; either way, locals love them. They’re also a cheap source of nutrients and have a high protein content – about three times the amount of beef.
吃蟲子聽起來可不像上策,但在南非,許多當(dāng)?shù)厝讼矚g吃可樂豆蟲,這是一種大型帝王蛾的幼蟲??蓸范瓜x可以干吃,可以作為零食嚼著吃,也可以蘸醬吃;不管怎樣,當(dāng)?shù)厝硕己芟矚g。它們也是一種廉價的營養(yǎng)來源,而且其蛋白質(zhì)含量高,大約是牛肉的三倍。
