Pupal Bee Paste
Made primarily from bee pupae or wild bee pupae. To prepare, the pupae are squeezed to extract their juice, then finely chopped. The chopped pupae are mixed with crushed spicy chili, wild Sichuan pepper powder, Polygonum hydropiper herb, and other seasonings, combined with the pupa juice, and stirred with salt to create a ready-to-eat paste. This rich and sweet bee kidney paste is commonly eaten by locals as a dip for raw vegetables. (Xishuangbanna)
