Danes are taught to cook invasive species

Danes are invited to fight invasive species in the most pleasant way, by cooking them. Pacific oysters, wrinkled rose or Canada goose can be turned into gourmet food thanks to a free-book full of tips on how to cook these species.
On December 16, Environment Minister Lea Wermelin launches the cookbook "If you can't beat them - eat them". "Invasive species are external species that push our own nature. With the new cookbook, everyone can join the fight. Then you can both impress diners with a different dinner and help nature simply by eating", says Minister Wermelin.
The cookbook contains 31 recipes based on either black-mouthed cuttings, Pacific oysters, invasive crayfish, invasive geese, American cormorants, wrinkled rose, Armenian blackberries, spotted carnation and mint jackets.

"I hope that the new cookbook can inspire the Danes to take part in the fight against the invasive species we have in Denmark. If you go hunting for oysters in the fjords or frown along the coasts, you are guaranteed a natural experience", added the Danish official.

The purpose of the new cookbook is to disseminate knowledge of invasive species and the harmful effects they have in the nature of a wider target group. If you don't just have an invasive coin jacket in the kitchen cabinet, all the dishes can be made with alternatives found in most supermarkets.
