Picture of the Day 49

Yeah try to guess what that is before you read on!

Looks like octopus? Well no. It actually is sea cucumber. I didn’t even know you could eat those … things. And of course to enjoy the full taste, flavor and texture you eat it raw. The taste is actually not that bad, tastes like sea, kind of. The texture is whats more … lets call it unfamiliar. Imagine rubber, which is really slimy on the outside and then imagine chewing on it. It was definitely nice to taste, but it wont be on my list of favorite dishes 😉

My first guess would have been jellyfish … Thanks for sharing some foodie pictures as well.

Naja, ungewoehnlich isses allemal. Und einen Versuch wert^^ Meine Tipps waeren merkwuerdige Pilze oder Schnecken gewesen.

Die sind echt schmerzfrei. Da bin ich ja beruhigt, dass es „nur“ Seegurke ist, dachte kurzzeitig schon es wären Quallen ;o) . Die sind doch so schon furchtbar glibrig. Wusstest du vorher was du isst und wo bekommt man so was?

Also Qualle hätte ich fast noch eher gegessen die sin wenigstens net hart und zäh wie Gummi.
Die konnte man hier auf den vielen Festivals kaufen und glaube auch so … mein Professor hat die mitgebracht zum probieren.

Am besten gefiel mir deine diplomatische Formulierung! ‚They taste like…. unfamiliar‘ – Imao
