Ghiscari Spiced Honeyed Locusts

Strong Belwas will agree that this Ghiscari specialty is of such taste that it is nearly worth dying for. Any dish that so perfectly balances honey sweetness with the savory fire of Free City spices is nothing short of tantalizing, and the preparation of such a meal is an accomplishment to take pride in. People who try this dish shouldn't be surprised to find out that one bite isn't enough! (A Dance with Dragons, Chapter 52—Daenerys)

A Word of Wisdom

If you prefer a more mundane meat in your stir-fry, substitute two chicken breasts for the locusts. The Ghiscari would prefer dog or camel, but the sweet and spicy sauce is very versatile.
