  • After diving for scallops and surfing in a kayak, I ended up on the island of Easdale, home to the world rock skimming (skipping) championship, and Duncan, the resident seaweed specialist.
    Growing up on Canada’s East Coast, I’ve played around in the North Atlantic Ocean a few times before. I also studied seaweeds in a course called Phycology at my university. I can’t say I went in knowing nothing, but I was rusty at best. Duncan had a whole afternoon lined up for us. Identifying, foraging, cutting, eating, and eventually cooking all sorts of different Algae, even one that tasted like Bacon!

    Hope all is well, you opened my eyes to seaweed. You always teach me something new. Keep up the good work Mike! It would be sick, if you and Jax linked up one day! My favorite youtubers!

    That seaweed “bacon” sounds and looks amazing. That is a new one for my vegan cooking.

    Mike, Super impressed w/ this vid on seaweeds, (& Scotland). Duncan got so excited of his find, had to call the GrndKids in to watch. Then, told them when I use to live on Oahu, (HA), & We would collect seaweed from Eva Beach to make Poke &,Vegetarian type dishes. One of the best experiences.

    Mike, very well done. Love the cooking of seaweed part. Watching this video as I'm writing. That seaweed dish looks fantastic. Seems like the garlic takes out the salty-ness. Thanks for the video. Kick the grind

    Another fabulous video Mike ... growing up in Ireland Dulce (to me anyway) always seemed what we sold those crazy tourists (while we kept to potatoes :) .... the crispy goodness had me salivating .... must look Duncan when I'm up that neck of the woods .. looks like a fountain of knowledge and great to learn some tips in wild seashore foraging .... Hoping more of these to come ....

    Very informative! Surprised you wore shoes before! Haha. Kidding aside, didn’t know you are a seaweed expert too! Truly a walking encyclopedia. I’m very impressed! Learned a lot watching this. Even years ago you are already a great storyteller! Thanks, Mike! ♥️🐉

    Hi Mike, wow that was awesome, I knew that you could eat seaweed but I didn't realise how many different types are edible. An awesome and very educational video. Thank you x

    Another fascinating, fun, and informative video from you, Mike! I never knew that so many varieties of seaweed are edible right out of the water, or that you can cook it like a pasta or stir-fry. I’ve only ever had dried seaweed, but I definitely want to try some fresh dulse chips someday! How does the taste of the fresh seaweed compare to the dried kinds you can buy at the supermarket?
