Insects : essential and delicious -- is it healthy? -- Eating insects : naturally! -- On the future and sustainability.

"Two entomologists and a chef make the case for insects as a sustainable source of protein for humans and a necessary part of our future diet. They provide consumers and chefs with the essential facts about insects for culinary use, with recipes simple enough to make at home, and they discuss ways to convince Americans and Europeans to eat insects. The book contains all you need to know about cooking with insects, where to buy them, which ones are edible, and how to store and prepare them at home and in commercial spaces."

Gurp, Henk van.
