    That crab wandering onto the platter was like, "Ayo, what is this divine feast I just came across?!" When you were placing the seaweed on the slate, I was thinking laying some of the sashimi flat would be hard and may not look nice on such a rustic looking style. It was a great call going for the triple rose! Another great video Taku!

    Seriously inspiring. One of the most beautiful plates of sashimi I've ever seen and you just improved after a catch and forage! Love how precise and efficient you are wirh everything, even shaking seasonings on seaweed. Really makes me think about being more conscious and attuned when cooking

    Foraging videos are the reason why I fell to like this channel, and subscribed. Always get excited to watch them. I live in Pennsylvania so I have always dreamed of going foraging in the pacific coast. I lived in Los Angeles when I was a kid and went fishing all the time in Huntington Beach but never up the coast in NorCal but maybe one day !

    The good thing about the Misen knife is the AUS10 steel enables the blade to be ground very thin, while also being able to effectively have 15 edge grinds. This is a big consideration for Japanese knives- the thinner the better. This AUS10 is better than the typical 440C that we see on high quality German and French cutlery. 8” is a perfect size to use a pizza peel for a cutting board if you buy a wooden one.

    🌴 it doesn’t matter if your fishing or catching eels there is something about watching a skillful sushi chef take his bounty for the day collecting what’s available and turning into an elegant plate , not only knowing how to make sushi or sashimi, but the art of plating is what makes things so great as we eat with our eyes first !

    bro i've been trying to back off on my comments but whatever you do is always good. I do want you to use all the force you have to push bringing back the otters. they eat like 30 urchins a day, and when I was a kid we used to just stab as many as we could... probably already told you that and that was in like 94. this has been an issue for longer than that. the russkies came over in like the 1500s or something and whacked all our otters for fur hats. similar to seals. we don't have seals they're all fur coats, we have sea lions, the german shepherd of the sea, but we have no seals. good thing I know exactly how to talk to them. I can't spell it but it's basically arf arf arf. i don't know when you come through santa barbara, but in the next few weeks I have stone fruits (mostly apricots and next are nectaplums then next nectarines. the blood oranges and pink lemonade lemons are pretty much always available, and the apples come in in about 2 months, lemme know. I gots small kayaks, like surf style, oh and I got some tatsoi and other seeds for joc if you're in the area drop by. there's actually a nurserey like right next door to me and right off the freeway too for seeds and they're amazing. I'm also about 6 minutes to the beach/pier. It's right next to a hospital too, it is basically a really sweet spot. there's even a park literally like 3 doors down. I think I told you before, you're free to park your van here any time. just warn me so I can clean my bathroom for joc. no worries on the crabs. I have chicken and other things in the freezer and a net. bring more if you want and keep it up with the posting on the seasons and rules etc. people need to know this. love you bruddah, sea you next week

    It’s up to you, but there’s a reason that old timers tie a short length of 60-80# mono to the hook, with a loop so the hook can move sround. You get better control of the blenny that way and the bites are more positive; l, better hookups. It’s up to you.
