    Tbh the foraging episodes are some of my favorites, even more than fishing for big lingcod and salmon.

    Chicken of the woods is one of, if not the most, protein packed mushrooms there are. All of the other ones are water, maybe a couple carbs, some vitamins and minerals. But COTW is straight up a plant meat. It's awesome. Cook thoroughly. You found some choice fruits! Great vid.

      I'd like to go to Alaska one day. I think it would be cool go on a boating excursion through there. I'd like to go to British Columbia too, and if I can go to Alaska on the same trip, it'd be awesome. Alaska does look stunning. Cheers!

      Ayyy that’s lit I just learned about a year ago how to ID and eat them sooo tasty! I recommend this style way to cook em like pulled meat sauced or I also recommend breading them and frying them can make a chicken sandwich so tender! Much puck and peace on your mushroom travels friend!🙏🏼

    Chum salmon are also sooo delicious to just dry in the sun and eat through the winter months, dipped in seal oil. That is how we traditionally eat it on Nunivak Island where my mother is from.

    I am new to your channel. I started watching after you did colab videos with Chef Hiro. My husband is a hunter and I stayed home with the kids. Now they are almost grown and I go out with him. I bought a nice camera and while he goes hunting I take pictures. I just bought a book about mushrooms in my area after watching this. Thank you for inspiring me. We are hoping to do more fishing and exploring this year.

    chicken of the woods cooking advice; in this vid he still had them slimy and when eatin at that stage its pretty the same as eating a portabelo sandwich but if you cook them till they're dryer they get crispy and take on the texture of chicken waaay more with a little crunch. if you put butter or like him some sauce on them after that is peeerrrffecctt
