Escamoles, often called "insect caviar," are the edible larvae of ants and a traditional dish in Mexico. The larvae are gathered from the roots of agave plants and are sautéed with butter and spices.
Wow, I’ve heard about escamoles, but I’m still wrapping my head around the idea of “insect caviar!” It’s amazing how something so unique can be such a delicacy. The thought of those larvae sautéed in butter and spices sounds surprisingly tempting. Might need some courage to try it though!
