Instructions

In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.

Add garlic and ginger and cook for another minute until fragrant.

Stir in turmeric powder and red pepper flakes (if using) and cook for 30 seconds, allowing the spices to bloom.

Add roasted crickets and broth to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Use an immersion blender to partially blend the soup until slightly creamy, leaving some cricket pieces for texture (optional). Alternatively, use a regular blender, working in batches and being careful of the hot liquid.

Stir in lime juice and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Serve hot, garnished with fresh cilantro.

Final Notes

This Golden Cricket Elixir is best served warm as a light lunch or a flavorful appetizer. Experiment with different vegetables like carrots or celery for added depth. Don't be afraid to embrace the unusual – this soup is a conversation starter and a nutritional powerhouse!
