Catch and Cook Desert Mountain Lobster (episode 23)

Historically humans have depended greatly on animals for food. Deer, buffalo, fish, rabbits and other game animals come to mind but what about those little six-legged creatures that are so prominent all around the world. Yes, grasshoppers and other insects are a great and rather tasty survival food. Many cultures around the world relied heavily on insects for essential protein, fats and other nutrients. In this video, grasshopper season is here but I’m specifically hunting the big plains lubber grasshopper (I erroneously labeled them as “prairie lubbers“ in the video) and I’ll show you an easy way to cook them for a nutritious meal. I call them “desert mountain lobsters” because of their lobster-like appearance and mild flavor similar to lobster tail. This series will be ongoing so be sure to stay tuned for the next video. *Turn on captions to see subtitles in other languages. *Please subscribe and enable notifications.
