So crickets!
Grilus extract, which is extracted from domestically grown Futahoshi crickets, is said to have a strong umami taste similar to that of oysters.
Moreover, even though it is a liquid seasoning, it contains about 20% protein, so you can supplement the protein that tends to be lacking just by using it for cooking.
The soy meat used this time is attracting attention as an alternative meat.
It is low in fat, high in protein, and full of ingredients that are good for the body.
In addition, Kashiwa leaves have bactericidal action, prevent rice cakes from drying out, add fragrance, and are easy to eat.
The soy meat itself has an odor, so please follow the instructions on the package and carefully prepare it.
Why Cricket?
The protein crisis that will occur in the future and the food loss problem that is currently occurring mainly in developed countries. In order to solve both of these problems, Grilas grows edible crickets using food waste as food.
