Not only the caterpillars can be eaten, but the cocoons are also delicious.That's what my grandmother said, because she really likes caterpillars and cocoons.Not only the caterpillars can be sold, the cocoons are also expensive.More or less around 10 dollars a kilo.
It turns out that many people are interested in caterpillars and cocoons Teak. I don't know what it tastes like, I'm also curious. I want to try it later So that you are no longer curious.
I wonder mhow he found the cocoon.He asked me to look for Cocoon With him.
And I looked up,the teak tree had no more leaves It's been eaten by caterpillars,The surviving caterpillars have become cocoons .I'll look under the tree.
I found them under the leaves. They were hiding In a group.It turns out it's not that hard to find.It's just that the way to find it is up the mountain.Searching for it also requires extra effort.
What I got was quite good. I gave the results to my grandmother to cook next.It's a bit difficult to find it, because it's small and red. Have to find it using wood too.
There are a lot of them after they are collected into one. They look like nuts. I think so hehehe. But it doesn't taste like peanuts.
After everything is collected,clean it Cocoon with water.And add the Salt and spices,stir well.And fry until cooked
After it was cooked I wanted to taste it. I had never tasted it before.Rather than being curious about the taste,I tried one.And want to share the moment of eating the cocoon with my hive friends.
For me this is disgusting food but for old people in the past this food was very delicious It is only eaten once a year, because it only occurs during the rainy season.The caterpillars will transform into butterflies.For the cocoons that survive hehehe.
It feels soft when chewed. Maybe for those who see it, it's like eating a cockroach.That's on my mind too.
It was my unforgettable experience.Who is interested contact me ☺️
That's my story for my friends at Daily Hive. Another time I want to Share another story With hive friends.With a different story.
