    Thanks for sharing this whole adventure! Man, this is so AWESOME!!! Not only the spearing, but all the things you’ve cultivated and grown. The recipes are killer too!!!
    Thanks for teaching us!!!
    Good stuff!

    The best thing about growing up and living in the far north. Besides Cray we have mud crabs,sand crabs and fish that would break the bank down south. Never tire of it.

    Instead of using coconut water you should try grinding up the coconut pulp and squeezing the milk out. That's the way we do it in Hawaii and it tastes way better!!! To be honest raw is the best. A very large octopus left all those shells.

    As a kid back in the 1950's and 60's I use to dive for huge abalone in Southern Calidornia USA. My buddies and I would cook them on the beach. Today, when I took my wife to dinner a very small farmed abalone was $40.00 and she loved it. I wish I would have knew her as a kid, we would have had a feast on that beach and I would have even thrown in a crab or two, maybe even a Pacific lobster. Thanks for the adventure, awesome..

    Instead of using the coconut juice, use the coconut cream, it takes the dish to a whole new level!
    Basically take a brown coconut, grate the meat then press it out/ring it out in a bag.

  • @clifbradley
    @clifbradley Рік тому +1

    If you get the meat from the legs and the tail section near the carapace that sticks out, chop that up really fine, mix them with some corn starch, roll them Into a ball shape, dip in beaten egg, then in flour with seasoned bread crumbs, garlic salt, season salt and lemon pepper then deep fry them in peanut oil. Phenomenal lobster nuggets. If you take the head and boil it to make stock, once strained and any meat thrown back into the stock, add half a stick of butter, garlic salt, season salt and ¼ cup of lemon juice amd ¼ cup of olive oil boil some fettuccine noodles. Marinate some chicken in Ken's Steakhouse Northern Italian dressing that has basil and romano in it overnight. Grill the breast up and serve over the fettuccine with a sprinkling of parmesan. Take some of the lobster stock, about 1 tablespoon, mixed in with ½ stick of melted butter, garlic, pesto and olive oil, toast some French bread pieces and spread on the toast. Lobster infused garlic butter bread to go with it.

    Amazing video, there are a couple of recipes I recommend, first one is Thai ceveche, you can use club soda to tenderize the lobster, of course if you have club soda. Then you add the sauce, combine fine chopped cilantro, garlic, chilli with lemon juice, fish sauce. The second one is ginger lobster with green onion. Stir-fry garlic with ginger to get them smokey then add lobster meat with all the inner part of lobster head and seasoning with soya sauce and possibly sesame oil and add chopped green onions. Use all the shell to make a spicy lemongrass soup ( Tom Yum) with lobster meat, banana blossom and lots of herbs in your garden. Whatever you can catch, whatever you can grow, I can cook so many recipes.

    I completely agree when you promote the use of all the catch especially with these hard to come by seafood. In a different situation the most efficient way of cooking would be boiling the lot with veg and coconut water. You would have fed several ppl with the broth and the flesh

    Peppers so easy to grow , if starting buy all sorts of varieties, eat flesh , save all seeds , sterilise in half an aspirin and mug of water , drain and dry , . Compost, soil , sand mixture to pot up early spring large pot , handful of seeds , when about 5 " high , repot on their own , either keep in pot or plant out in sunny spot , water well .

  • @notyouraveragegringosnotyo563

    You can use all of that ginger plant as well, as in the leaves. They are abit milder but make a great garnish as well.

  • @danielward9954
    @danielward9954 Рік тому +3

    Az, one thing i want to add to the whole "One big is just as sustainable as one small" isn't factoring in genetic integrity. So that large cray may have some genetic markers that allow it to grow faster, stronger, bigger etc. then other crays. and this fact is actually quite important, so what you've said all thought it might be true here, generally is not as straight forward as it might seem.
    A good example is elephants, we have hunted all the big ones out, and through genetic pool reducing and as poaching has strategically killed all the big elephants, the genetics for the largest elephants has been all but wiped out. We are seeing that nowadays the genetics of elephants is mostly producing smaller adults with small tusks. so poaching has literally changed the species entirely.
    Love your work though brother

    Good video there bala 🙌🏽 just one tip with the crayfish when you spear it kill it and tale it straight away so the black blood of the crayfish don't spreads. Also with the legs break them off and boil water from kettle and put into a tub then throw the legs in and cover for 10 to 15mins the legs meat should come out easily

    If you've ever heard of Singapore Chili Crab you should really use that method to cook it, Singapore Chili Crab is like a sweet and tangy sauce served with a side of Man Tao a type of sweet fried breae meant to be dipped into the tangy sauce with the crab. Other variations of Singapore Chili Crab could also be Singapore Black pepper Crab so please try it. ❤
