Hi all,
as my wormery seems to be doing extremely well thought I'd have a go at deep fried worms with chilli sauce.
Now I now when I do snails I have them in a (covered) bucket for 48 hours with lettuce to purge their system but not sure what to do with the worms. One recipe I found online has them in cornflour for 24 hours but doesn't specify if this is to add to crispiness [sp] or to purge them.
Anyone have an idiots guide to preparing worms for cooking, please?
Failing is not a fault, refusing to try is
Sure!
1 cup worms
1cup cornmeal
1 bottle Guinness
Dampen cornmeal so worms don't dess.... dehi..... dry out. Place worms in cornmeal in a covered container (else you will have escapees, yuck) Wait 24 hours. Open Guinness. Feed worms and cornmeal to chooks. Drink Guinness. Easy-peasy!
Seriously, short of a SFTF scenario, why would anyone WANT to eat worms?

Good Source of protein and more importantly as I have a wormery FREE.
I'm sure many vegetarians would say 'why would anyone want to eat beef?'
Got to be tried, although I am beginning to understand why my mum is dubious about what I serve her when she visits.

I used to eat them raw when I was a child.
At least I'm looking at cooking them
Just for you TA:
Long thin slimy ones slip down easily

I have reached an age where my train of thought often leaves the station without me...

My eldest daughter, when she was about 4 (some 100 years ago) wouldn't eat macaroni because she said it was worms.
Look forward to hearing how they turn out, could be confusing with wholemeal spaghetti if you made a bolognese source with them as to which were the worms (just a thought!!).
Were your thoughts elsewhere, Chris?
Only joshing!!!
Hi Tracey,
Seriously???
Okay, have a look at this site.
Just like TA, I ate them as a child.
Whatever made us do that, TA ??
