Coastal Foraging - Mussel, Clam and Crab - Clean and Delicious Cookup Winter 2020

  • Опубліковано 19 сер 2024
  • Coastal Foraging on the low tide line for delicious edibles is one of our favourite things to do. Exploring rock pools and searching for Crabs, Clams and other sea life is not only fascinating but is a great way to get some fresh air and enjoy the outdoors. Then after collecting what we needed for a meal we clean them on the shore. Then go for a delicious family cook up. 😊

      It's a simple, wholesome, sustainable fast food tbh and far better than any other fast food you're going to get. I love living in France now and having mussels regularly. 30 mins and they're done tops. Warm baguette, crisp white wine. Can't beat it. However this guy and his wife, they're missing some awesome meals by not liking the oysters.

  • @ozhunter2505
    @ozhunter2505 3 роки тому +49

    Mate,
    that looked delicious! Being from Italian heritage, I place the clean mussels in a pot with plenty of garlic, parsley, black pepper, extra virgin olive oil, some chilli (optional), a dash of dry white wine and steam them till they open, meanwhile a pot of salted water on the boil for your choice of spaghetti/linguine. When the spaghetti is coooked, drain and toss in with the mussels and serve. Real simple but tasty. Same recipe works with any shell fish and also calamari. Bit of ripe diced tomato can also be added to the pot if you like a bit more sweetness. Give it a try!

    This is a beautiful thing ! Food God gave us to gather at will .... so while I can not eat these , ( I get very sick from clams) I do love to make these for my friends. I do it similar.. I fry up garlic, onions white wine and steam them in it. When they open I remove them and add cream to the juice and add a little more wine and cook it off. At the very end I pour the juice over the plated clams and sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley and serve with crusty bread .... delicious so they tell me 😉

    Mmmmm mussels. One of my fav ways to cook up mussels and steamer clams is in tomatoes with some mild chilis, some onion, a bit of butter, some Goya sazon with coriander and annato, then finished with a few glugs of grapefruit hefeweizen and garnished with fresh cilantro. The first time I tried the grapefruit hefeweizen I was just using what I had because I didn't have any white wine but it pairs with clams and mussels very nicely.

    This video is very nostalgic for me as my family went on holiday to this very beach, 3 times a year, every year, when I was growing up. Reminded me of crabbing in those rock pools with my Grandad, it was his favourite place too. I've already taken my children there, and miss it so much! Can't wait to be allowed to visit again.

    I cannot believe how rich your marine life is, where I live everything has been stripped bare, even the starfish have been picked. I used to see groups of them four or five each holding a big white bucket and filling them to the brim with everything that moved of any size. On some of the rocks, even that beady seaweed has disappeared.

    I hope you don't mind but a quick story - first ever trip abroad (Mid 70's - the year) Me Dad was an angler btw. Pitched the tent and went for our first meal in Brittany. Moules all around and they brought out a bowl of water with lemons in for free. Me dad scranned his Mussels and drank the lemon water, smacked his lips and patted his belly. I told him I thought the water was for weshing your fingers in. He looked around and whispered "I think your right"

    I think I'm gonna have to move to Cornwall, even though I live by the sea in sweden we don't have that kinda sealife on the beaches where I live(maybe on the west coast) and you need a fishing license in most places here, which we have for fish for the whole family but not for shellfish, I'll have to look up the specific rules. We do have some crawfish/crayfish in some lakes where I live, but it's illegal to fish them without a permit.
