What I like about your channel is, how you put the information about the size or quantity of the food that you may harvest from the nature, and of course, the information about edible wild plants & mushroom around you. And the duration of the video is just right, not too long or too short. Educative and yet entertaining! Keep up the good work, Chef! 👨🍳
This channel is honestly an inspiration for me to go out myself and forage while camping or something. Love watching this right before bed, always relaxing. Keep it up!
That is so cool. I miss the days in AK finding really big mussels like that...and BIGGER even if you can believe it. We would get them while picking black seaweed, steam em up with many things from beach and feed the whole family. I am really loving what you do here. Please keep it up. Thanks so much for sharing.
Always enjoyed watching your foraging & cooking👍 Thank you mate, I’m a fan here down under. Fresh mussels simply delish! And oh, our Cardigan Corgi has said “woff woff “ a warm hello to your lovely corgi😀❤️
I used to run, walk, hike, bike, think, surf, meditate and relax on that Beach.... God I mis Pacifica!!!! Cheers Brother your VLOG is always fun, educational, delicious and SCENIC!!! Thank you!
HUGE MUSSELS. i love how responsible you are about respecting the laws or whatever you call them of the sea and you always have these cool people that join you
In the beginning of the video you were collecting onion and I noticed some yellow flours. Those flowers and there stem is edible and tastes really good in salads. It’s a little sour with makes it taste really good!
Love your videos. Been going through and watching a lot of your older stuff and everything is awesome. Thanks for putting this content together! It's great to see someone demystifying coastal foraging and eating fresh caught seafood. Come to British Columbia and eat some amazing purple dungeness when you can ;)
I always enjoy your foraging videos! For your future posts, can you do a close up of the seaweeds that are being harvested right from the rocks? I wanted to get a better idea of what they look like.
Man you’re doing a lot of collabs! That’s pretty dope. I wouldn’t mind seeing you collab with the same people more than once like fishermens life and any of em really.
Yes, always watch the waves.. a friend of mine died a few days ago, by getting washed into the ocean, he was an avid fisherman, who knew his stuff.. but one wave was enough to knock him into the water... Always be safe out there, never turn your back on the waves... As usual awesome video!
Really sorry to hear that! I think we were reading about it the other day. Was this in Humboldt? Taku and I were discussing this on Sunday while shooting a collab vid. We both feel strongly that we need to really start emphasizing more on the safety aspect of what we are doing out in the wilds. Again, very sorry for your loss!
sorry to hear. we have this happening here in new zealand quiet regularly as well. you could wear a blow up life jacket or have someone with floating device on a rope in your team.
Great information on what type of seaweed we can harvest out here on California. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. What made that meal more enjoyable was that fact that all the ingredients were harvested a few moments before it was prepared. Granted that the crab would have made it more tasty and it wasn't a hand roll, but good meal nonetheless. Especially if it was prepared by a sushi chef! Thanks for the upload.
What you want to do whether it's wild onion, mustard, radish etc is, pick the flowers when they're still buds. You see they have fat stems, because they're sending the good stuff up there to make the flower. When it actually flowers, you'll notice the stem gets skinny, because the plant is done sending the good stuff up.
i want to see some of the bay area fisherpeople come up to Sacramento and catch and cook the river or into the sierra's and do some river fishing catch and cook :P
@Andy Arexx-Siharath I personally think the crabs are forming a hivemind and trying to take down his channel to preserve their populations. It's survival through sabotage
@@ianmichael4019 I mean can't we boil down literally every part of social media into that? Everyone on insta wants attention, everyone on fb wants attention, everyone on youtube wants attention, and so on. Hell, our intertidal boi right here wants attention (and gets it by making some cool ass videos) I would personally prefer if nobody was an attention seeker, but I'm not gonna get my butt busted over the 95% of the population who does. It's a losing fight, honestly
@@toasterdrippings I don't want attention, all my stuff is private. I know how to track most people down and find their address, work, phone #, political affiliation in less than 5 minutes. It would blow your mind how much info can be gleaned even off of a semi-private social media presence. I am guessing by your name and photo that you know that too. It blows my mind how much info people share online. I found a way to figure out people's social security numbers too before I even was a teenager. It is fairly easy and that is one reason they are eventually doing away them and why they are randomized now.
You should buy a steamer for your mussels,i love & will only do them that way in the beach where i went foraging. They taste way better steamed & it is so simple to do.
You need to invite more down to earth people.. Those were city girls that won’t appreciate simple food .... Can you cook a stingray? Maybe you should try ...
Try using Everglades Original seasoning and Everglades Fish and Chicken seasoning! You can order off of amazon. I use it on everything.. it’s life changing!
The big mussel is good but too much sand only because most of them are on the ground u just got to pick all the sand out... And they have this part that is like a little rock or something that its crunchy.. Still good for me tho
we got lots of big (green lipped) mussels in new zealand, and i just eat the soft bits and throw the chewy parts back in the sea. something’s gonna eat it, so no waste!
you just gotta do one coastal foraging with Craig Evans man, he will get you on a 3 star michelin meal with lobster or whatever u want him to catch chef !
Is that bakers beach? I always want to get some mussels but I can never because of those huge waves. Could you share at what beach you got those mussels?

Whooaaa. .
I like the color changing of the seaweed, from olive green to bright green when you boil them.
So satisfying!! 💚

Doggo's make great co-stars! Looks tasty as usual. Great video!
BellaVillain what looks tasty. The dog or the food? 👀
@@kendy6015 I mean I could say both, but I meant the food 😊
HUGE MUSSELS. i love how responsible you are about respecting the laws or whatever you call them of the sea and you always have these cool people that join you
Hey I saw you all the other day. That was me with the 49er beanie who said what's up! Cool seeing you out there, sweet content!
In the beginning of the video you were collecting onion and I noticed some yellow flours. Those flowers and there stem is edible and tastes really good in salads. It’s a little sour with makes it taste really good!
Great video, nice plating as always!

I’m a Jocelyn fan!
Awesome video! I love the fact that you forage everything (nearly) you make, it’s so creative!!! By the way Cooper is so CUTE!!!

This is so fantastic ❤️
I needed this today
I love yr vdos, so beautiful and natural. Cooper is a cutie!
Little Cooper Bear! This is like when your favorite shows do a crossover episode
Man you’re doing a lot of collabs! That’s pretty dope. I wouldn’t mind seeing you collab with the same people more than once like fishermens life and any of em really.
idk.. i did not like her reaction honestly.. i mean you're going out with the chef himself, don't expect junkfood
Yea she’s a fucking bitch , how tf is she a popular food vlogger?
Nice work man! I am such a huge fan of kombu, but never thought to roll and slice it like that!
Awesome video guys!!! Love the dog in the video 😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️
Oh man, just found your channel and I am bloody obsessed. Nearly watched all your videos at this point! Haha
Love your videos, always makes me hungry. I would have eaten that mussel that fell on the table like a Savage beast. Ormond Beach Florida
Bro you always make me hungry when I see your video . 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 a 10000000 Thumbs up for you .
What you make from just the wild looks like the freaking tastiest thing on earth
Love the surfing in the back.
Watched almost the whole channel already. Keep it going man, vids are awesome!

@@catchncookcalifornia1574 Hawaii actually. And thank you.
I’m really sorry to hear that. It’s so unfortunate, stay safe out there. I’ll make sure to remind people
sorry to hear. we have this happening here in new zealand quiet regularly as well. you could wear a blow up life jacket or have someone with floating device on a rope in your team.
Looking forward to this video mate! Been waiting 👀! 😍
I’m a new sub, I just saw you making sushi on fisherman’s life so that was awesome what you did with those ingredients, good luck on your channel.
Sweet! Looks like a nice dish, as always. Cheers bro

sounds like me😉
Makes me wanna go back out there and get some mussels again! Nice vid my dude
Philosophy D like how all the Bay Area youtubers support each other. You guys rock!
i want to see some of the bay area fisherpeople come up to Sacramento and catch and cook the river or into the sierra's and do some river fishing catch and cook :P
When you said im going to get a giant mussel, I thought u were trying to make her laught by saying ur muscles. Lmao
Oh man love the vids Taku keep it up!
Dope Video! Sending blessing your way, Keep inspiring!🎒🙌🏻
Why the dislikes? This video is awesome. Love the format and setting.

Within 5 seconds, I learned how wild onions looks like!!! 👍👍👍👍👍
I love your vids haters will be haters i enjoyed your content keep em coming you rocked it
Awesome video beautiful ladies good fresh food and nothing but smiles
Hey great video! It'd be cool to see more foraging in different environments just to spice things up a bit.
man....you guys make me want to move to Cali to forage the seafood there!!!!!!!!
That pup handled those rocks impressively
You should buy a steamer for your mussels,i love & will only do them that way in the beach where i went foraging. They taste way better steamed & it is so simple to do.
I love that doggo!
Wow those are some big mussels. Never seen them like that before.
I didn't realize that the onion weed was edible. I grew up being told that it was not edible. Thanks for the tip!
You need to invite more down to earth people.. Those were city girls that won’t appreciate simple food .... Can you cook a stingray? Maybe you should try ...
weird incel
Try using Everglades Original seasoning and Everglades Fish and Chicken seasoning! You can order off of amazon. I use it on everything.. it’s life changing!
i would have eaten that other half of the mussel that fell onto the table.
same
Nice vid! I miss living in Pacifica!
Looks delicious, makes me hungry!
Love ur video bro keep up the good work 💯🔥
Awesome dude!! Cooper is the cutest everrrrrrr
I've never heard of those two before but the Corgi is cute
Great videos as always my man
Would love to see you make some dynamite mussels out there! Keep it up man!
6:18 Damm! That Mussel is Doin SOME JUICE! 💪🏻😎🏋️♂️
Knife is life, man Taku flex his muscles in this video!! Wow never seen a giant muscle before
Your videos always make me so hungry...
Looks fun!
Looks good how would u dry that kombu? Use it to make shushi vinger or something awsome.
I'll definitely do that one day!!
The big mussel is good but too much sand only because most of them are on the ground u just got to pick all the sand out... And they have this part that is like a little rock or something that its crunchy.. Still good for me tho

You can make a nice "Honghaap-tang". Thanks for sharing^^
you just gotta do one coastal foraging with Craig Evans man, he will get you on a 3 star michelin meal with lobster or whatever u want him to catch chef !
I was trying to find video of all the item that you pack and take with you to do what you are able to do, cooking etc.
love all your videos.
Is that bakers beach? I always want to get some mussels but I can never because of those huge waves. Could you share at what beach you got those mussels?
Yay another video!!!
Love this!!
You can dig up the bulbs on wild onion. You are only getting half of the plant.
Facts 5 second rule the piece that fell on table disappeared😁
jocelyn is my favorite!
4:44 Who else thought he was going to grab his arm?😂
Where can I go foraging? And is there a limit on the mussel and size limit? TIA
Your awesome! Way to rep the Bay!
Good job trying to host guests. Not a win but still a good episode. Who brings a corgi in ski goggles to the beach?
Its to protect her eyes from the sand....
the sand and salt....should have also had booties though on the dog
Do you test yourself regularly for heavy metals?
I dont think he's in a band.
I’ve got to get out there and try this
Did you make the sea salt yourself? It's funny to see you put sea salt on your sea food.
More Cooper pls 👍
What beach are you harvesting from Chef?
Those were some nice big mussels
I know that dog ... “goggles paisano”
I had one the side of my foot but it’s small inside. China Beach
Yassss
"Knife is Life" Gig'Em!
Why do you have to call before consuming the mussels ??not safe? During those times?
Send it back lolll. Now we know how it really tastes.
Where was this filmed at?
Great video as always. You seemed a bit nervous around the ladies. 🤣😂🤣
It’s like seafood grocery store there
You should make food for the dog in another video :D
Love those clams
Food looks good but wow in abundant of oysters clams .
I’ll pay for the experience of foraging and your cooking . If I’m ever near ,you know who I’ll be hitting up .
You are such a G.
If this was a survival situation that dog would be tacos by now lol
