Do you want to learn about eating insects? On this week’s Chefs Without Restaurants Podcast we have Joseph Yoon. He’s the executive director of Brooklyn Bugs, as well as the chef/owner of Yummy Eats and Dinner Echo. Joseph views his participation in this global food movement as an extension of his commitment to his community, and volunteers his time and resources with both Brooklyn Bugs and Yummy Eats.Brooklyn Bugs is an advocate for edible insects, and their mission is to raise appreciation and awareness for them through delicious, educational, and creative programming.  Their work has been featured on the Smithsonian Channel, New York Times, NPR, Food and Wine, and Gizmodo, as they strive to introduce edible insects as a sustainable source of protein that can be found in your pantry, eaten as a snack, and beautifully plated by chefs. Joseph first got into edible insects as a collaboration with artist Miru Kim. She’s someone he had really wanted to work with, and she was looking to serve insects for people to eat as part of her Phobia/Phagia project.Besides being a sustainable protein source, in the right hands, insects are also delicious. We discuss a few of the ways that Joseph likes to use them, and we talk about the parallels between eating insects and offal. If you’ve ever wanted to learn more about edible insects, this is the podcast episode for you.================Joseph Yoon================Brooklyn Bugs InstagramThe Brooklyn Bugs WebsiteBrooklyn Bugs Facebook PageBrooklyn Bugs TwitterLots of other links to Joseph’s workMiru Kim================CONNECT WITH US================SUPPORT US ON PATREON https://www.patreon.com/chefswithoutrestaurantsThe Chefs Without Restaurants Newsletter https://bit.ly/35ctsL3Visit Our Amazon Store (we get paid when you buy stuff) https://amzn.to/3vgcc2fClubhouse https://joinclubhouse.com/@chefsworestosCheck out our websites (they have different stuff) https://chefswithoutrestaurants.org/ & https://chefswithoutrestaurants.com/Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/chefswithoutrestaurantsJoin the private Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/chefswithoutrestaurantsTwitter https://bit.ly/2TVWdt7Instagram https://instagram.com/chefswithourestaurantsFounder Chris Spear’s personal chef business Perfect Little Bites https://perfectlittlebites.com/YouTube https://bit.ly/3xhnDYVIf you want to support the show, our Venmo name is ChefWoRestos and can be found at https://venmo.com/ChefWoRestos.
