Recipe Introduction
The legend of the Loch Ness monster dates back to 565 AD, but are there really sea serpents? The area of water on our planet is vast and mostly unexplored, so who knows? Zoologists find new species of animals every year - and there are animals they thought were extinct for millions of years that turn up again. It's possible that the water creatures called sea serpents are just waiting their turn to be found and named.
