Hokitika Wildfoods Festival | West Coast, New Zealand
I am just curious to know if any would be tempted to visit and partake of the culinary delights at this festival? And wondering if you have an equivilent in america?
Not to mention the usual assortment of deep fried testicles.Hokitika is a small town on the West Coast of New Zealand's South Island. Where every year they hold the Hokitika Wildfoods Festival.
Every year, new wild foods are introduced. From clams to offal, from wasp larvae ice cream to ostrich sandwiches, from whitebait to escargots and shark and scorpions (raw and cooked),
You can try huhu grubs: The huhu is a big beetle endemic to New Zealand. The white larvae are about 7cm long and are found in dead wood.
The Startled Worm Cafe enticed festival visitors with its menu of Chocolate Worm Truffles, Worm Sushi and Worm Dukkha.
Colostrum is a kind of milk that is high in antibodies and protein. It is the milk that is produced by the mammary glands in the late stage of pregnancy, just before the birth. The stand offered several colostrum desserts, for example "Mastitis Mousse", "Colostro-Yummy Cheesecake", or "Colostrum Shots".
there are horse semen shots available, rhubarb champagne, Maybe have a glass of Gorse Flower or Broom Flower wine.
