Whole dried edible crickets for cricket flour
Dried crickets are the perfect base for making nutritious cricket flour
We source the crickets from sustainable farms, and we carefully dry them to preserve their high protein content and essential nutrients. Additionally, the insects have a mild, nutty flavor, and they are easy to grind into a fine powder. Once ground, this powder offers a versatile and discreet way to add sustainable protein to your diet.
Cricket flour is an excellent “superfood” that is rapidly gaining popularity due to its powerful nutritional profile. Not only is it a complete protein, containing all nine essential amino acids, but it also provides B vitamins (especially B12), iron, calcium, and prebiotic fiber.
Once ground, you can use the powder to boost the nutrition of many recipes, such as baked goods, sauces, and soups. Importantly, it does not overpower the taste of your dishes. Therefore, it is a game-changer for health-conscious individuals and adventurous foodies alike.
Please note: While a standard food processor can achieve a good consistency for baking and cooking, creating a very fine, smooth powder for smoothies may be difficult. For better results, try using a dedicated coffee or spice grinder.
