SC - Saffron Substitutions

[Christine A Seelye-King]

	Not with bees. You do remove the legs and wings of grasshoppers and
crickets 
	though. The book really is a fascinating 'novelty' item to add to
your 
	collection and the recipes if actually tried are very good, needing
little or 
	no adjustment.

Hmm, sounds like a good present-to-me after those Voyager tapes I've been
promising myself. (speaking of which, Margali, I'll check out Forbidden
Planet and see if I can find your friend B5#23) Though London is remarkably
insect-free (very disturbing) so I won't be raiding the front garden. 
NZ has something similar to Wichity Grubs - Huhu Grubs (not sold as a snack
food though). If you're ever in NZ, try and get ahold of some as they're
delicious.

PS Thanks for the garlic recipes Rayne - I just bought several '50p for 8
heads' bags (brilliant price here <gloat>) and was wondering what to do with
them.
