A lot of people questioning how it can be sustainable when I said the kelp numbers are declining in California. My fault for not clarifying. Bullwhip kelp is in abundance and grow much faster in places like Alaska. They also have good kelp farms so as long as you're ordering from companies like Barnaclefoods(from Alaska and very conscious about sustainability) it would definitely be sustainable! Or taking what's already been washed up, as I did, would be an alternative. Sorry for the confusion. Thank you always for watching!
All cops are nazis OGCIADC ?? If there’s profit someone will make it sustainable Where you get it being unsustainable? All markets understand the basic concept of supply and demand, and all people understand that they don’t want to run out of money.
So, when thinking about what makes a product sustainable, you have to think about the pros and cons to it. Kelp is very healthy, and grows relatively fast, but is high in sodium. It can be farmed, but is more difficult than traditional farming, meaning it requires more resources to cultivate and harvest and subsequently is less cost effective and will end up producing similar if not greater levels of carbon emissions to traditional farming. It does have the benefit of not needing to be fertilized, pollinated, or sprayed with pesticide, but like he said in the video, sea urchins eat them, meaning large commercial farms might turn to introducing predators or trapping sea urchins to prevent them from killing crops. While this might impact sea urchin populations, if done correctly, any repercussions could be mitigated, and sea urchins could even be lured and sold by such farms.
All cops are nazis OGCIADC and fuck you for thinking all cops are like that after all compared to the cops people like you and the cartel are “animals” that do worse things then just dirty cops
@@stradekun2554 The kelp numbers are just a common scare tactic, apparently one that works on the weak minded. Sea Urcnin numbers bloom every few years and they eat the kelp. Then the Urchins die off due to lack of food and the kelp comes back. Cycle repeats constantly. One thing that helped keep the cycle more steady were sea otters eating the urchins. Turns out, they are just part of the cycle too and return when urchin numbers are higher.
You can also deep fry the kelp leaves. When I was a young boy in Korea, my grandma used to cut the kelp leaves into square pieces and deep fry them and then season them with some sugar. What you end up with is salty & sweet kelp chips. They were pretty tasty.
I almost cried when he left that beautiful head of kelp-like greens behind. he had 5 lbs he could've taken and then dried. It is GREAT for your garden, too.
I used to do this back in the day with my grandma. She made some awesome Korean dishes with the seaweed. Seaweed/kelp is plentiful but not many people know about the benefits of it. Awesome video!
My Mom used to and still does incorporate seaweed with most meals, as does my family in Japan, well half there and half here in the States. Seaweed has been a staple in Japan, Korea, China, Vietnam and with so many other Asian countries for centuries so nutritious and tasty...........
@@OutdoorChefLife Oh man I was literally watching the egg video from BA before I re-watched this and a Brad collab would be rad!! Just be sure to bring him a beer for me. Thanks lol
@@OutdoorChefLife I think it would awesome to see you on an episode of It's Alive showing Brad how to poke pole and then make some sushi with Monkey faced eel and kelp pickles.
My dad and I used to use bull kelp stems to steam fish fillets, just stuff them full of it, some water, maybe some seasonings, throw the whole thing in the fire then take it out and split it open. Dinner is served 👌
You’re quickly becoming one of my favorite channels! I love food from all over the world and sustainability. I just did a survival challenge three day catch cook armadillo and raccoon it was incredible especially the experience
That’s awesome. It reminds me of 20,000 leagues under the sea. Captain Nemo said anything you can find on land, you can find in the ocean. Leave it to the sea to make pickles look cooler too.
Quickly becoming one of my favorite UA-cam channels to watch. I learn something new every time when I watch your videos! Very educational along with teaching sustainability. You make every catch and cook look delicious with unique dishes...which separates you amongst other channels. I’m from the Midwest and so wish I could experience some of this stuff in my backyard. But this will do for now lol.
This guy always bringing something new to the table. I didn't know anything about fishing and stuff until this guy really brought it to light in an interesting way with cooking.

Thank you for sharing. Its looks like the bay behind you in Northern California. Blanching it also helps with some of the sea salt. You can try other recipes and different spices for pickling the bullwhip kelp. I'm from the Wisconsin. I've only seen Northern California except on TV. Or kelp that wild the bulb fills with air. That's so cool you can find blue craps and Bullwhip Kelp washed ashore.
It is only "sustainable" until it catches on and lots of people start eating it. Then in very short time it becomes RARE. Nice vid with a cool recipe. Subbed:)
Well not necessarily, having more alternative food sources decreases stress on existing food sources, making them more easily sustainable, also this kelp grow world wide and the ocean is huge with potentially massive potential for agriculture, plus it grows very fast and does not need sprays or insecticides so yes it's pretty sustainable but I understand what you are saying and it does have some merit
My hubby likes tuna salad sammies and I subbed Barnacle Foods kelp pickles in place of celery and his mind was blown. No doubt these are equally if not better than theirs. Great content as always!
Its 2 am. Taal Volcano just exploded and came out with ash straight to the sky. Air Quality is getting worse. Got nothing to do keep myself entertained.
So I’ve heard that even if all the trees on earth are gone, the kelp in the ocean would still provide earth oxygen enough for us to breathe. (WE STILL ABSOLUTELY NEED LAND FORESTS) But I just think it’s funny that we have the mentality that kelp is plentiful right now and want to eat it, because once upon a time trees and forest were plentiful
I really wish there was a channel like this for the midwest, the ponds and lakes here have so many weeds and it would be nice to use it in a way other than compost .
@@ditisnietpablo Yeah, though I don't think he ever meant it was sustainable in California. I think he was just speaking in general. If you buy it from farms that grow it like crazy then it is sustainable. That's how I understood it at least.
@@Zack_Taylor It probably is but California is filled with a bunch of idiots that blow everything out of proportion. Like that dead one he found, news would've came out with a politician and they would have made up a store about how all the Kelp are dying off and this was the last one. Something needs to be done! I'll bet dollars to doughnuts there is absolutely no shortage of Kelp in California. If there is, its because of that other eco thing they tried to do of releasing fresh water into the bay or desalinating water and dumping that back in to areas making it too concentrated.
They're not necessarily. "Ocean taste" isn't always indicative of saltiness. Like, why aren't fish salty? All you'd need to do if they ARE too salty is just add more sugar to pickling mix. That's it. Then add things like mustard seed and dill and it'll cut the saltiness, but....pickling mixes usually always have salt.
Bumble Smart to think of that and be safe. Props to you for thinking of that. Fortunately the toxins are at a very low level and safe enough for consumption. It might contain arsenic and/or iodine but not enough to effect our bodies. healthyeating.sfgate.com/can-taking-kelp-dangerous-5146.html
Nice! on a mildly tangential note I have a huge batch of olives that are finally ready, tried a couple different curing methods, so far the just bog standard saltwater brine is my favorite, the dry salted ones are just super salty. My college campus has a ton of olive trees and they don't do anything with all the olives, they just end up littering the side walks, so I just went and harvested at least 15 lbs this past autumn.
@Sabbidiwi and yet there are VERY fit sexy men online who were born from a vegan mother and raised all of their lives as vegans and they are healthy and vigorous! The gut microbes convert many fats and foods into the necessary components- such as K1 to K2. Science is awesome, but it often only explains what it knows. Scientists are as biased as the average person, as well. RESULTS matter and the results prove that vegans don't need animal food. Yes, bacteria and fungi substitute for meat and dairy to provide missing nutrients...the very few missing
suddenly, mans' comments are invisible for me, so he either deleted them or he used the ancient Google Plus feature of blocking me but to respond, with what little I know he said in retort: it's so fuckin easy to make supplements _without_ getting them from animals animal farms, cow and red meat farms specifically, are HORRIBLE for greenhouse gas emissions meat isn't inherently bad for health at all but Americans eat far too much; thus straight up cutting it from a diet is better than over-saturating yourself in it Google for 5 seconds and stop cherry picking discredible sources that say otherwise, AKA purposefully staying in your echo chamber
Pickling kelp is a kind standing Alaskan tradition, loooong before the commercial producers in Juneau! Though I am thankful they are spreading the word!!
Neat! I'm going to have to try that up in WA. I see it wash up all the time, but I never thought about pickling it. Another great video, Taku and Joselyn! Always good to see your videos pop up on my subs.

ocean salt =\= regular salt ( taste wise )
@@HoneyCecelia The common household salt is from the ocean.... other salts like pink Himalayan salt comes from land but is MUCH more expensive.

Taku is genuinely good at his craft.
I've seen a lots of foraging vids, I learned lot from this channel.
Im going on a coastal foraging course in march this year so this inspires me even more
Watermelon rind is also a wonderful candidate for pickling. Especially for natural, fermented pickling.

Trying this out this week, such a great idea.
Thanks for the educational portions of your videos explaining your finds. Really enjoy it.
If you enjoy these, I'd recommend trying cattail! Almost like a soba noodle when cooked.
Can you eat the roots, stem and head thingy?
@@vindiesel3066 some folks use the pollen too make flour for bread and other goods. Roots are definite yes. Considered a better part of the cattail.

Watching/listening to you cut the kelp stalk was weirdly relaxing
adds brown sugar, which from my experience, turns black tea almost literally black, then wonders why the kelp turned brown XD
dude the way you present your info is so smooth. Keep it up!
Just be aware of that kelp and seaweed contains a lot a iodides and if you get too much of those you can become very sick. :)

Your knife skills would make Gordon Ramsey proud.
He's a trained sushi chef that not long ago worked at a very good sushi restaurant in SF.
Your channel is quite calming and gives good information; thanks for uploading.
Would love to try them pickles in a burger
Would be gooood!
Next time I have a chance to hit the coast, I'll collect some of this bullwhip kelp and try a wild fermented pickle. Thanks for your videos!
It is only "sustainable" until it catches on and lots of people start eating it.
Then in very short time it becomes RARE.
Nice vid with a cool recipe.
Subbed:)
Well not necessarily, having more alternative food sources decreases stress on existing food sources, making them more easily sustainable, also this kelp grow world wide and the ocean is huge with potentially massive potential for agriculture, plus it grows very fast and does not need sprays or insecticides so yes it's pretty sustainable but I understand what you are saying and it does have some merit
My hubby likes tuna salad sammies and I subbed Barnacle Foods kelp pickles in place of celery and his mind was blown. No doubt these are equally if not better than theirs. Great content as always!
Its 2 am. Taal Volcano just exploded and came out with ash straight to the sky. Air Quality is getting worse. Got nothing to do keep myself entertained.
same bro
Mom's out there too, stay safe out there ate/kuya!
Ricky Rick stfu boi
Ricky Rick wtf
Hope you stay safe!
i really hope food network picks you up man. your content is amazing and i love how organic the process of you going out to catch and cook.
That’s some good looking ecklonia radiata you got there
Eastwood Productions Thanks, Clint Eastwood!
not really
Your channel is truly a breath of fresh air. Thank you and Congratulations on the recognition. Keep doing what you do brother.
I've only ever eaten these in a soup my dad really likes kelp
Love to see a completely new recipe on the channel! Super interesting and entertaining stuff Taku, as always.
So I’ve heard that even if all the trees on earth are gone, the kelp in the ocean would still provide earth oxygen enough for us to breathe. (WE STILL ABSOLUTELY NEED LAND FORESTS)
But I just think it’s funny that we have the mentality that kelp is plentiful right now and want to eat it, because once upon a time trees and forest were plentiful
Yeah its sad how many trees we harvested and ate over the last 500 years..
Thank you! Loves your videos. You two are an amazing couple. Totally balance each other and that's so cool.
Vancouver Island Canada🤙
"pickle of the sea" reminds me of "chicken of the cave" :D
I really wish there was a channel like this for the midwest, the ponds and lakes here have so many weeds and it would be nice to use it in a way other than compost .
“The next big sustainable food”
Can’t take more than 10lbs due to shortages
The title seems so dumb in that context lol
Edit: seems it's abundant elsewhere. Still hilarious out of context
Did y'all see his pinned comment? There is a shortage in California, but it's booming in Alaska.
@@xShadow_God Not very sustainable in California then.
@@ditisnietpablo Yeah, though I don't think he ever meant it was sustainable in California. I think he was just speaking in general. If you buy it from farms that grow it like crazy then it is sustainable. That's how I understood it at least.
@@Zack_Taylor It probably is but California is filled with a bunch of idiots that blow everything out of proportion. Like that dead one he found, news would've came out with a politician and they would have made up a store about how all the Kelp are dying off and this was the last one. Something needs to be done!
I'll bet dollars to doughnuts there is absolutely no shortage of Kelp in California. If there is, its because of that other eco thing they tried to do of releasing fresh water into the bay or desalinating water and dumping that back in to areas making it too concentrated.
Bruh I like the peaceful way you explain everything, I hope u and fisherman's life get a video together!
Next Up: "I pickled a block of salt"
Ah yes, but my favorite out of all is pickled deodorant rock crystals
kelp a plant where most part of it is edible dried kelp added on soup is a killer combo
"We have a decline" two seconds later "very sustainable"
my thoughts exactly
sustainable as in he didn't go out and cut a growing one... wasn't that obvious?
They grow better in Alaska where they are much more sustainable.
Love your channel Taku, super chill vibe, humble and always educational.
Wait why you add more salt when that kelp is already super salty
They're not necessarily. "Ocean taste" isn't always indicative of saltiness. Like, why aren't fish salty? All you'd need to do if they ARE too salty is just add more sugar to pickling mix. That's it. Then add things like mustard seed and dill and it'll cut the saltiness, but....pickling mixes usually always have salt.
Good question! It was salty but pickling mix need salt regardless. Although I did pull back the amount I put in. Worked out well!
yet another honest humble and helpful video.Im going to go try this myself.Thankyou
Shouldn't you have heated the jars after you filled them to sterilize? Or that's not needed?
what? do you speak english :P ?
CypyCup yea. It’s not even that hard to read. It’s not far off
Handsome young innovative chef. Love it. He's a keeper. I love spicy things.
dont those hold a lot of toxins from the ocean
He boiled away the toxins
@@nickaleo7 you can boil away germs not toxins
Bumble no they don’t
Bumble Smart to think of that and be safe. Props to you for thinking of that. Fortunately the toxins are at a very low level and safe enough for consumption. It might contain arsenic and/or iodine but not enough to effect our bodies.

I imagine everything from the ocean does these days
Nice! on a mildly tangential note I have a huge batch of olives that are finally ready, tried a couple different curing methods, so far the just bog standard saltwater brine is my favorite, the dry salted ones are just super salty. My college campus has a ton of olive trees and they don't do anything with all the olives, they just end up littering the side walks, so I just went and harvested at least 15 lbs this past autumn.
I’d rather “Eat Babies”!
Joking aside, I’d try it. Brown sugar yum 😋
Totally just bought a jar of their kelp pickles. Thanks for the discount code. I'm super excited to try them. I love pickles and I love kelp/seaweed.
When u wanna be extra vegan. And cucumbers aren’t enough for your veganism.
The lack of seafood in our diet should be subbed with sea plants; we vegans need the extra minerals.
@Sabbidiwi and yet there are VERY fit sexy men online who were born from a vegan mother and raised all of their lives as vegans and they are healthy and vigorous! The gut microbes convert many fats and foods into the necessary components- such as K1 to K2. Science is awesome, but it often only explains what it knows. Scientists are as biased as the average person, as well. RESULTS matter and the results prove that vegans don't need animal food. Yes, bacteria and fungi substitute for meat and dairy to provide missing nutrients...the very few missing
@Sabbidiwi lmao okay buddy, nice echo chamber
it's almost like we're advanced enough to engineer supplements for necessary vitamins or something
suddenly, mans' comments are invisible for me, so he either deleted them or he used the ancient Google Plus feature of blocking me
but to respond, with what little I know he said in retort:
it's so fuckin easy to make supplements _without_ getting them from animals
animal farms, cow and red meat farms specifically, are HORRIBLE for greenhouse gas emissions
meat isn't inherently bad for health at all but Americans eat far too much; thus straight up cutting it from a diet is better than over-saturating yourself in it
Google for 5 seconds and stop cherry picking discredible sources that say otherwise, AKA purposefully staying in your echo chamber
Genki Feral spirulina supplement helps
Pickling kelp is a kind standing Alaskan tradition, loooong before the commercial producers in Juneau!
Though I am thankful they are spreading the word!!
A very healthful treat👍
Looks like a bunch of cannabis plants behind you
sure.. it is Sea WEED Dude
Knife is life
One of my favorite videos right here!
if only the sea was not filled with poo chemical plastic drugs ect no way do i want to eat anything from that mess. shame on us all
but kelp cleans the majority of pollutants besides plastics
That's awesome, I love foraging foods...not much kelp in Michigan but many other time sensitive harvests.
Neat! I'm going to have to try that up in WA. I see it wash up all the time, but I never thought about pickling it.
Another great video, Taku and Joselyn! Always good to see your videos pop up on my subs.
I love your channel bro! Humble, classy guy. Key to a successful channel. Keep it up amigo! 👍🙏🏼
