"U ñiang ryndia" or the mulberry worm is a Jaiñtia delicacy that many might cringe to see. But for those who have the taste buds for it, u ñiang ryndia conjures a distinctive native feel.
As a simple meal it can be boiled and then mixed with onion, ginger and salt.
It can also be made into a more elaborate curry with onion, garlic, neiiong/ naiiong (black sesame/ black til), turmeric and then garnished with garlic leaves and coriander.
U ñiang ryndia is available in the summer months!
