Anyone game to try out a 'Penis Fish'? Mother nature sure has a beavis and butthead kind of humour..........
From Wikipedia:
“Known as Urechis unicinctus, This spoon worm is commonly eaten raw in one part of Japan and commonly in Korea.[1] This is often eaten with salt and sesame oil in Korea. In Hokkaido, Japan, this is called ruttsu and served as sashimi or boiled.
In Chinese cuisine the worm is cooked stir-fried with vegetables, or dried and powdered to be used as an umami enhancer. In particular, the worm is considered an important ingredient in Shandong cuisine and has numerous recipes for using it.
This is also used for fishing bait.
