  • Thank you viewers for all your support! Reached 1,000 subs a lot faster than I expected. Thank you so much!
    Out in Half Moon Bay foraging seaweed to make nori. First attempt at it, so it wasn't perfect. Let me know any suggestions to improve it!

    Great vid. A more sustainable way of harvesting seaweed is it cut the seaweed at the base instead of just ripping it off the rocks. It can regenerate, as apposed to pulling the whole thing off with no further possibility of furthering new generations of growth.

      Thank you, yes you're completely right. I just forgot my pocket knife that day, my bad

      Outdoor Chef Life totally understand, but because you are giving info on the internets, just want to make sure your are covering all your bases, ( like the way you informed people not to step on the anemones.)

      True! thanks for the input, I'll do my best in future videos

    Try dropping the temperature down and cook slower/longer , actually you only want it dried not cooked. 100-150 F . Or use a food dehydrator .
    In New Zealand we call it Karengo "Car eng o" , that's a short o sounds like OR not OH. The Maoris traditionally dried it in the sun and took it with them on their travels with dried fish.
    Nori/Laver/Karengo has 9 times the vitamin C of an orange and heaps of Iodine. My fav thing is to cook Muttonbirds aka Sooty Shearwaters with dumplings and Karengo.... oh yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!!!!!!!! Try it with smoked Chicken. And Uni we call Kina ,ours are bigger and green and coming into the season to gather . Kina are tasty when they leak a milky "Fat' liquid from the roe.I marinate them in lemon juice and raw onion then you can eat them or add coconut cream and make a kind of "Pacific Island" raw fish recipe by adding bell peppers, chilli ,lime,ginger and all those yummy things you like yourself . Love your channel :-)

When you're making these videos I can feel that sea breeze I can smell whatever your cooking and my mouth just waters as you plate everything that's enough to drive me insane with hunger so thanks yet again for making me hungry ❗❗❗

    I’m binging your foraging videos because this COVID pandemic has me freaked! I’m hoping to find some wild edibles in my area (Los Angeles) because it’s getting pretty difficult to find produce at these grocery stores... but also, I just find foraging for wild edible plants is just good practice and a lot of fun when hiking. Thanks for the vids!

    Love the stuff. It would be great if you could do a video that covers which seaweed NOT to collect- either because it's unlawful or protected, because it may be poisonous, or if it's from an area that has too high pollution levels. It would also be helpful to know which seaweeds are technically edible, but aren't quite sought after or palatable for which ever reason.

    Love your channel, cooking and the outdoors are my thing. I always wondered about cooking with seaweed. It seems all is edible if delicate enough? The one you called sea lettuce also comes in a white variety. My father said it was good for ulcers.

    • @OutdoorChefLife
      @OutdoorChefLife  6 років тому

      Wouldn't doubt it, seaweed has even known to cure cancer! Pretty much all edible, meaning non are poisonous. Definitely some are better for consumption than others.

    I'm not sure if I'd ever try to make nori sheets for sushi either since it's so readily available now days. However I really like the idea of making my own crunchy nori snacks, seasoned to my personal taste, for munching on. Much healthier than chips. In fact, I love adding good amount of extra seasoned nori to my bowl of ochazuki then pouring in hot steaming green tea. You just gave me another great idea to try out so thank you so much for sharing.
    I don't live in CA but when we go there for vacation, we normally frequent the Orange County coast. Do you know if laver grows in southern CA?

    Hi Taku, you seem pretty versed in foraging edibles but if you want to learn more about low tide foraging in the Bay Kirk Lombard does foraging tours where he shows you techniques and identifying certain edibles. Yours are $50-60 and is very informative.
