ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Engastration

Engastration is when you cook one animal or food inside another one. It's like playing with dolls, but instead of putting smaller ones inside bigger ones you put food inside other food.

It's like making a special surprise for dinner because when you cut it open, there's a yummy surprise inside!

For example, you can put a chicken inside a duck, or even a whole fish inside a pig. The outside food cooks the inside food and adds extra flavor to it.

But don't worry, it's not like eating a whole chicken in one bite, because the inside food is cut into smaller pieces so it is easier to eat.

So, engastration is a fun way to mix different flavors and make a tasty meal that looks really cool too!
