“Grillus Kitchen” that delivers recipes using Grilus cricket ingredients
This time, we will introduce "Bagna cauda with colorful vegetables" to eat with warm sauce!
Bagna cauda is a sauce made with plenty of garlic, anchovies, and olive oil.
This time, instead of anchovies, I used grilus extract, which has a salty and umami flavor.
You can enjoy it with various vegetables such as radishes, broccoli, carrots, paprika, and pre-boiled potatoes.
By using brightly colored vegetables, it can be used as a home party or hospitality dish.

So crickets!

Grilus extract is a cricket extract extracted from domestic Futahoshi crickets using a unique method.
It is a seasoning liquid that concentrates the taste of crickets and has a strong umami like that of seafood.
An extract that plays an active role in strongly flavored dishes. It's also perfect for seasoning ajillo and tandoori chicken.
The authentic way to eat is to put eggs in bagna cauda, which is becoming scarce, and eat it as scrambled eggs.
You can enjoy it deliciously until the end without leaving any sauce.
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.
