What do grasshoppers do?
Locust, also known as grasshopper, is an agricultural pest. But now with the improvement of life quality, locusts have changed from pests to green game food. Locusts are rich in nutrition, tender in meat and delicious as shrimp. After frying, they are as crisp and delicious as golden cicadas.

I remember when I was a child, I always went out with my friends to catch golden cicadas and look for grasshoppers. Marinate the grasshopper you found and fry it in the oil pan the next day, not to mention how fragrant it is. Personally, grasshoppers are better than golden cicadas.

Regardless of whether these hundreds of billions of locusts can be eaten in China. Today, Bian Xiao will share with you how to cook locusts, and your favorite friends will collect them quickly.

Method for frying grasshoppers

Ingredients required: grasshopper 1 kg, proper amount of edible oil, salt, cumin and pepper noodles.

1. First, put the grasshopper (locust) into a basin, rinse it with clear water for several times, and then add a proper amount of salt to marinate it for half a day; Then take out the dry water. The grasshopper's wings can be removed or not, depending on whether you like it or not. Bian Xiao thinks I prefer to wear wings.

2. Pour an appropriate amount of cooking oil into the pot. When the fire is 70% hot, put the salted and dried grasshoppers into the oil pan and fry them slowly, then turn to medium and small fire.

3. Just fry until the grasshopper's belly bulges and it is almost transparent. If you like tender food, fry it again. If you like crispy food, you can fry it on both sides or for a while. Take out the fried grasshopper, drain the oil, sprinkle some salt and cumin powder while it is hot, and add some Chili noodles if you like spicy food. Blow up grasshoppers right here.
