I've just realised why it's so relaxing to watch your videos. None of what you do is rage bait or engagement farming. I leave your videos in a better mood, not angry and anxious.
I think I’ve watched every single video on this channel and that’s why I like it too. Unfortunately, that doesn’t really translate to views as most videos get around 50,000 views with almost 1 mil subscribers
Just a cool guy filming and uploading the things he enjoys doing
I agree, it's the most mentally nourishing content on UA-cam. And this one has made me decide to buy a mulberry bush
We need to get back to more things like this and stop all the lying and propaganda crap!
Just be nice and stop all the manufacture hate!
I agree. I love these videos because of that.
Hi Shrimpy! I just wanted to let you know that my dad passed away very recently, and he absolutely loved your videos. Every week we'd sit down on a saturday morning to watch them together, we'd get so excited when you posted a long one like this. His favourites were the cooking and foraging videos. You had a massive positive impact on his (and my) life. Thank you 💛
I'm so very sorry for your loss and hope you are comforted by watching and remembering ❤
I'm sorry for your loss
If you have your own backyard, plant a fruit or a nice flowering tree in his honor. If not, you can still plant at local parks , or even the cemetery (just get permission or something) Sorry for your loss. In the natural order of things you are left to carry on his memory and visage. Stay strong and carry on his legacy.
What a lovely message to post, very sorry for your loss
I had a good chuckle at the earthworm comments 😂
“An absolute unit!” … “Girthworm!” 😂
Me too!! 😂😂😂
The biggest earth worm type is a few feet long.
I read this comment before I got to that part of the video, I was really hoping he'd say girthworm, but I see you beat him to it lol!
EDIT: HE DID LMAOOOOO
@@kensmith5694 you just made me google that, wow! And of course it's Australian😄
The fried salmon trimmings should also work well in a bowl of ramen, perhaps along with a poached egg.
IT DOES! ... just uh, confirming for a friend
That sounds really good!
When people think their way is the only way. Thats when I start to feel tired.
I find smoked salmon very good in a Hot Cross Bun, with butter & fresh watercress.
I use it in a risotto with peas or asparagus...delicious and stretches it much further!
I had a bit of a horrible end to my evening yesterday (car crash, very scary but thankfully no severe injuries) and have been feeling rattled, and this really gave me a good moment of just calm, pleasant escapist viewing. Atomic Shrimp is definitely my go-to when I need a pick me up, thank you for sharing your adventures with us
I hope you're well now? 💚
22:35 what an absolut chad of a worm, probably did half the composting by itself.
about the fossil, rays also have that type of tooth. Specifically what you'd want to look up is "stingray dental plate". We have lots of them here in Florida, not sure about dorset, but I'd wager they can be found on lots of beaches worldwide.
I really enjoyed hearing your thoughts on self determination and how important it is. I recently made the big decision of leaving my job and changing my career path to get out of an industry I've spent my whole life studying/working in but it wasn't making me happy.
I know not everybody in my life agrees with this choice but ultimately I need to pursue my own happiness.
As long as you can keep a roof on and food in, follow your bliss!
Good for you! Best of luck in your new path, well done for prioritising happiness!
I'm guilty of cooking smoked salmon, it's really good in a creamy pasta dish, fish cakes, fish pie or a soup. If it fills your belly and tastes good its ok for me.
This is what I was going to say, I used to have smoked salmon trimmings with cream cheese and pasta. Very very nice
The Scary Door needs a suitably scary sign on it. Nice video.
"Through the Scary Door" - sounds like a great book title!
Thank you to the person who asked about the wall pennywort seed update. I’ve been wondering about that ever since Mr. Shrimp planted them !
It's nice. It used to grow quite profusely in the gardens of an empty country house I used to do security work at. I often used to collect some, to add to my lunchtime sandwiches. A very pleasant, mild 'green' taste, and a pleasant mouth feel to it.
FYI a really tasty salad is grated raw beet root
Grated apple (I like a tart granny smith)
Sprinkled with a little salt and pepper with a splash of cider vinegar, sweeten with a bit of honey if you like.
I will have to try that tomorrow. I have beets in the garden still from last year. They seem to have resisted the frost and just kept growing. Some of them are 6 inches in diameter. Until now, I have always cooked them to eat.
Yuck. Baked in foil then grated beetroot I can accept.
I do spiralised raw beetroot, chopped strawberries, capers, salt, pepper, honey, vinegar and Dijon mustard.
Nothing better to start the morning than Atomic Shrimp!
The sun is shining, the birds are singing and I'm sipping my morning coffee with this wonderfully relaxing video 👍🏻
I like to stir the smoked salmon trimmings into creamed scrambled eggs as you remove them from heat and stir in a little less cream at the end. The salmon will only just change colour as it prevents the eggs from becoming more scrambly for want of a better word!
They’d also be great in a quiche with some asparagus, I reckon
I toss chives in as well with the smoked salmon and scrambled eggs. VERY yummie. ❤
What about in fish pie if you don't have smoked haddock?
@@bern84 Definitely, I've made that combo into an omelette before and it was very good. It'd work very well as a quiche too!
Seeing the book stalls at the market reminded me that Haynes Manuals have a 'Slow Tech' book. I'm currently trying to come up with an excuse to get it as it feels a bit like Mr Shrimp in book form. Hoping the cat gets it for me for Mother's Day - or rather I'll be getting it for myself.
Thanks for mentioning this, sounds right up my street
Literally just made a coffee and some toasted wheaten bread and sat on the couch. Then get the notification for a new Shrimp video. Good start to the weekend! 🙂
I absolutely love the Saturday morning upload. Perfect time for me, to enjoy this type of video.
@@raraavis7782 agreed! Have a good weekend!
Basically my start of the morning 👍 just the food is different.
@@suhojx7735 what did you have? Haha
Not so breakfasty leftower split pea soup and sparkling water - I have drunk coffee exactly once in my life 30 years ago (love the smell, not the taste)@@SchuckPipe
I never thought a segment about smoked salmon would make me feel seen and understood as a person choosing to spend his life with another man. Following your heart and living the life you want is so important.
I liked the muse around the market. Looked interesting with the various bric-a-brac. Modellers dream with the model trains and cars! Not sure if it'd work in a video but a look around charity shops might be interesting to see what you can find (budget challenge idea, buy three utensils that you must use!)
While you are talking about self determination and I agreed with every word, my inner voice was also screaming that you MUST completely remove the foil lid from the cream cheese and not recover it for it to continue to get in the way and get messy in the future. I am right on this and my sulk levels are stratospheric if you don't immediately concede this!
Fantastic self-determination message
I have gain 15 kg in the last 5 years around the same time I subscribed to this channel, I am beginning to think it’s not a coincidence lol
Your random stuff videos are like long-term storytelling to me, I recognized a lot of the things growing in your garden which from what I remember were still seeds back then, and you talking about it with random analysis and sometimes words of wisdom is just cherry on top. I should start calling this type of videos the "Atomic Shrimp" genre from now on 😊
'the oven clock flickers on camera' is a lovely sentence. sounds like a passphrase from a spy thriller. I would like it printed on a t-shirt
Mr. Shrimp, I'd love to see something on the lines of 'Cooking with Wild Clay Pottery' again. Loved that series, I've watched the last episode five times at least. The ambience of your channel is so calming and relaxing. It's a great de-stresser.
Definitely some of the best content on youtube that series.
Hey Shrimp, I have thought about this for a while, but it would be amazing to see a cookbook released by you with all the best and strange food creations you've made over the years. I would purchase that in a heartbeat.
You could even name it 'Chefs Privilege' ;)
Hey just wanted to tell you how much I love your videos. I am unfortunately living a pretty urban lifestyle, so its very helpful to have content like yours which helps me to feel a little bit connected to the country living I so badly crave. Keep up the good work my nuclear crustacean
Just on the indoor market, it is so much like the markets I grew up with in Tasmania. I noticed there are also a bunch of places with the same names. Like Exeter, Weymouth, Bridport, Sidmouth, and likely on and on we could go. In fact I lived in Launceston for years, although I know we pronounce it differently. Our Launceston even has a Tamar River. I had to look up Dorchester to see where it was and was pleasantly surprised to see some familiar place names. It is always a nice thing to know that even though we are a bunch of riff raff here in penal colony, we still have some little ties back to the old country.
Hello from Wynyard
@@symbungee Hello :) how are the tulips these days?
@@chellybub Still beautiful...🥰
Thanks for the video!❤I really felt something quite heartwarming when you mentioned жимолость (honeysuckle)- the berries I enjoyed picking the most in my grandpa’s garden back when I lived in Russia
I kind of want a t-shirt with "The oven clock flickers on camera" on it. Maybe with the cooker in the background with the words in a black rectangle over it, in the style of Sex Pistols album art maybe.
Or maybe I'm a wally
A part of me really wants just a black tee with "The oven clock flickers on camera" on it with no context. Would be a bit of a confusing conversation starter though
I want a t-shirt with picture of the Scary Door with the words "The Scary Door" on it in some sort of gothic font
Atomic Shrimp Frog Sanctuary t shirt
A lot of stuff I've grown in the garden I've been a bit underwhelmed by, but fresh home grown raspberries are the best fruit I've ever had and the thing which most completely destroyed shop bought; I've never eaten anything more complexly sweet and tangy than a perfectly ripe homegrown raspberry, so I hope your volunteers do well!
I was paying so much attention to your speech about self-determination that I didn't notice you using soft cheese (assuming that's similar to what we call cream cheese in the US) for that sandwich. A "BLT" using smoked salmon and cream cheese kind of made me think of bagels with lachs, and now I wanna give it a shot.
Thank you for providing such relaxing & wonderful moments through your videos! I love what you say about each of us being unique. It’s powerful to try new things & stay curios. That’s what your channel allows us to explore as human beings. It will become increasingly valuable over time to have the types of skills you do. Thank you for being a kind human! 🎉
It’s always kinda weird to me sitting here in Canada with the ground still covered in snow watching you do gardening in march
Spat my drink out when you called the worm and "absolute unit" 😂
For me, the abomination is much more the february tomatoes than cooking cured salmon
As a transgender woman I found your words about self determination very heart warming. Thank you
Yep, too much intolerance and wise words. Rabbie - "We''re all Jock Tamson''s Bairns" 👍
you're slaying sister! never forget that :D
Haha I was just about to say my kneejerk reaction to the fossil was that it was a tooth before the next segment. Although it didn’t remind me of a mammal’s molars but more like a shark’s teeth that’re built for crushing shells. I have no confidence in that answer though.
Never even thought about cooking with smoked salmon! That said, I do buy the trimmings occasionally and like to stir them through scrambled eggs, so they warm a little.
Regards the fossil... quite often there is dredging operations off the coast in that area. Holyhead Towing were down there a few years back, and I delivered one of the crew. I took a walk on a beach to find it strewn with live oysters, clearly from the dredge area. I filled a bag in a matter of seconds, they were all alive, clean and delicious! The point I'm making, I suppose, is the possibility of weird and unusual "washed up" maybe "broken up" items could originate from further out to sea!
Are you a midwife? Where was the birth exactly
@@SalfordMatt no, and I'm glad I'm not a Midwife!! Gone are the days of "it's a boy" or "it's a girl" as that kind of thing offends so many.
Also I'm no good at the telegraph's cryptic crossword, umm... any chance of a "coffee break" version of your reply?? TIA
I think it's a joke because you said you "delivered one of the crew", meaning you transported that person there. But "a delivery" can also mean a birth with someone who helps with births, e.g. a midwife, "delivering a child".
@@karinaburana562 it's too early in the day for my "wit" circuits to engage..
That's nothing to do with weddings either!!
@@richardmillican7733 bad joke from me haha
"Frog sanctuary" made me giggle. :-)
That smoked salmon trimmings looked nice, I also liked the trinket area. Nice video keep up the astounding work.
The compost looks great. :)
Dorchester Market: could feel my hoarder dna vibrating! So many BOOKS!!! Felt really sad to see the medals though. Are you planning on putting bird netting over your berry bushes? or just going to be happy to feed your bird friends? Thanks for the video, have a wonderful week.
36:26 It's funny to see that the antique malls of the UK are just as messy and disorganized as our flea markets here in the US.
37:10 I think those are commemorative pins of major USSR cities, I have a similar kind of set that was made for one of the USSR olympic hockey teams that I picked up from an estate sale a few years ago.
A few familiar names there - Kiev, Sevastopol ...
Pescatarian bacon sounds amazing.
Having some of that on a sort of fish gyro on a warm flatbread with chopped tomato, some crisp greens, a dill-heavy tzatziki-style sauce?
I think I've made myself very hungry now lol.
Pineapple on Pizza: "Who cares; people like what they like."
Single-malt whisky and coke: "This means war!"
Oh man, I fell absolutely in love with Saskatoon berries this last Summer. My dad showed me several small baby bushes he had growing, and they had so many berries on them. They are like even better blueberries! I'm so happy you have one!
Wow I didn't know saskatoons grew in the Uk. They are my favorite berries. When I was a kid I would pick bushels of them and my nanny would turn them into pies, now I prefer a saskatoon crumble. Best of luck with it all and thanks for sharing. Cheers from Canada.
I hope it will do OK here. Had to look all over to find the plant.
I cant even abide the smell of cucumber .
Your talk about conforming mirrors my contempt of eating certain foods at set times if the day and in set combinations.
Carry on the great work Mr Shrimp.
There is a funny thing. It seems that most people don't smell the smell you dislike. I am one of that sort. To me cucumber tastes OK but boring.
I think you are very much correct about the people that believe that there is only one right way to do something. Unfortunately that seems to be an attitude that is on the increase.
Loquat is awesome, I used to live in Northern California and our apartment complex had them growing as ornamentals, but the squirrels and a few residents (like myself) knew those fruits were tasty.
As that's a south facing wall, if the tree does fruit, you might want to consider using a thermal mass heating setup. It could help retain some of the daytime heat from the sun, and it only costs a bit of black paint, some time, and some recycled milk jugs.
I think you might be conflating pennywort with pennyroyal (a species of mint)
@@AtomicShrimpI think you might be right. I’ll go delete that part of the comment. I can only plead lack of caffeine at the time I was watching.
Smoke salmon trimmings make an excellent risotto or pasta sauce, the flavour is so strong when cooked that just a tiny bit goes a very long way as compared to bacon/ham/chicken etc.
The fossil in the first part of your video looks a lot to me like a stingray crushing plate, though I've never seen them quite that big. They show up in the matrix from phosphate mining in North Carolina. Most of my samples are half of that, split down the ridge along the back, I have a little 4oz jar with them. They're quite common here, but again, the ones I've found are smaller than that.
I find it so satisfying watching compost getting harvested and spread on the garden. Looks like you're off to a great start!
The talk while making the sandwich is already one of my favourite things on UA-cam and the video was only posted this morning.
I'm pretty certain the fossil is a fragment of a mammoth tooth. You find these on the North Sea coast here in Germany, the Netherlands and Belgium as well as on the east coast of Great Britain. The dark ridges are a dead give-away. I wasn't expecting these in your area, but comparing with one I've found near Bremerhaven once, I'm quite certain.
Would you consider possibly doing another recommendation of UA-cam channels that you have been enjoying as of late; I still frequent most of your previous reccommendations and would love to discover more channels! Thanks
I love these "long form" videos. Thank you! Hope you're well, sir!
I am so much looking forward to help out on the garden again, even more so after watching your garden segment of this video. Love your videos Shrimp, they make me happy!!
I came across your channel by accident the other day with one of your budget challenges and have spent most of today binge listening to your scammer baiting. Certainly made me laugh and cheer up an excessively rainy day in Wales !
Regarding fossil identification whenever I have found any strange bones/fossils/pebbles on the beach I upload images on the Natural History Museum identification portal. I always have had a reply from someone with a positive identification.
thanks for the content you make mate I really enjoy it
Getl a nice big potato, microware it until the centre is oft enough to scoop out. Scoop it out so that there is a nice big hollow space inside. Mix the scooped potato with some sour cream, return to the potato and top with smoked salmon, mmmmmm. I'll be having that in about an hours time, yum :)
Lol you made my tummy rumble. Baked potato and salmon. Yum!
The way I love to use smoked salmon (trimmings or otherwise) in a cooked dish is to add it to boiled rice in little pieces, together with a bit of soy sauce and sliced of boiled egg. Really delicious rice dish with added protein from both the salmon and the egg!
I am going to try that, my salmon is raw though, and I don't think its smoked.
Another suggestion for the smoked salmon is salmon skink - like Cullen Skink but substitute smoked salmon for the smoked haddock. I had some in a pub in Stonehaven recently. It was delicious.
Really enjoyed seeing the garden update especially in this vid. You are going to have a huge glut of tomatoes this year, in ground in a greenhouse!
Mr Shrimp, you're such a smart dude! I always enjoy watching your videos when im stoned and on weekends when im off and relaxing, i always feel calm watching your videos and always enjoy watching while you test your ideas. Thanks dude
That earthworm was built like a glass greenhouse
Not sure if you realised it but the market section the brass thing you picked up had the Lincoln Imp on it haven’t seen that for a long time. Originally from Lincolnshire so was quite interested to see it 😊 love the videos by the way nice to see how your gardens getting on. Also don’t worry about people making comments about the sandwiches you can only please yourself and there will always be those who say “ooh I you shouldn’t do that or I wouldn’t do it that way”, if it makes you happy so what.
Take care
9:00 - Right, I'm not a fan of those bits of internet opinion often held up as objective truth. Pineapple is good on some pizzas, and there are contexts in which comic sans is the right font. You make an insightful point; intolerance of trivial preferences like food or fonts could be a warning of intolerant attitudes about important things like a person's identity.
Tolerance is a social contract.
I’m now considering building myself a small brick wall in my garden specifically in order to grow Umbillicus rupestris so I can experience how they will taste. I love gardening. Good stuff!
I think you could probably grow it on a heap of mixed rocks/gravel/soil
I wouldn't mind at all seeing you fiddle with one of them tiny steam engines, Mike 😃
I really love that moral at the end of the Self-determination sandwich segment, that really struck a chord in me 😊
i love watching you cook, i love seeing your creativity making in the challenge vids
Thankyou for sharing.
Fermented mulberries are a favorite of our local squirrels, with the expected results.
😂 The mind boggles
As to the stone or fossil from the beach:
-It's obviously a fossil of a fine Chocolate 🍫 from the beginning of the Jurassic period.😂
Haha, I thought it was a chocolate too at first sight!
Ah yes, from the Thorntons Continental Shift range, 😂
That market looked so fun to have a nose round! Many of the trinkets on the table with the British flag and oxo tin boxes looked very interesting and reminded me of my grandads display case when i was younger, Fond memories of being told not to touch with a little tap on the hand. Its strange how such little things bring back great memories.
My personal favorite use for smoked salmon trimmings is quiche. It goes incredibly with some spinach and feta or similar.
Thank you! Please more garden stuff!!!
Hello Mr. Shrimp, thank you for posting such comforting videos! I'm early this time so I wanted to share some appreciation 💖
Oh my goodness, the little toy Thomas-the-Tank-Engine models in the blue basket at 30:26 just unlocked a core childhood memory for me - when I was a toddler (under 3, for certain as that was when we moved away from that area) I used to be given money by my mum at the village shop to buy those - one a month, I think. I had thomas, percy, james, one of donald/douglas and two of the passenger cars by the time we moved away from that village. It's slightly odd to remember being eye-height with the second shelf up in the shop, but rather lovely!
If you fry or bake the smoked salmon trimmings, they are divine and bacony. We cook them till crispy and then add them to pasta or salad. Yum!
But is that much different to just using non smoked or warm smoked salmon?
@@user-wq9mw2xz3j very different effect. A good bacon alternative
I used to live in Weymouth, Wyke Regis. Loved walking along Chesil Beach. Always made me laugh when I saw the sign prohibiting removing stones from the beach. Spenta few years of my childhood wondering if there were policemen sitting on Portland with a telescope looking out for any would be thieves!
Your compost is impressive. I've got a worm bin based in a small former laundry basket about the size of a waste paper bin. I estimate I have about 2000 worms in there, successfully used castings to grow pumpkins for our wedding last year.
If you have enough comment positivity then there will be an electrical arc when you get negative comments, causing damage to the person typing
Ahhhh...nonono...the negative person will get hit by the arc of positivity and get instantly transformed into an enlightened being of pure positive radiance. There. Much better story for a sunny Saturday morning 😉
Heh... Transformed... :-D
😂
Hah, if only. Nothing good like that ever ha-
*ZAP*
_OW! HEY!_
is that teslas free energy?
Love Dorchester Indoor bric-a-brac market...every Wednesday...and a car boot sale every Sunday..lovely friendly place Dorchester, and the town of Dorset is steeped in history too !
Glad Dorchester market is still going..it was Brill many years ago when it was a farmers market selling bridles and bits for horses and farm equipment too.
Regarding the plants planted next to the wall, maybe they survived due to the stone of the wall storing heat from the sun during the day in winter and radiating it out at night? Sort of creating a little microclimate when it's colder in other areas? I have had plants i expected to die in the winter survive and even thrive. Thick mulch in the winter might help them as well. Just uncover them some when it warms up
The best part of my day is when you drop of new vid. It relaxes me so much
I have heard of Lox and Cream Cheese on a bagel, with no desire to eat it, but cooked fish in a sandwich I could handle.I cannot eat unpeeled cukes without an upset stomach, not sure if that's your problem. My guy can't stand courgettes but likes cukes. I had a prolific sweet acorn oak but the local animals only knew pecans. I cracked some acorns and left them around and curious critters soon figured out they had a new food source and I never had to rake up a ton of acorns again. Give your little tree some room. My "dwarf fig'' grew to 30 feet when planted in Texas rather than the North where I bought it from.😄. Also take care of the wagging dogberry in your garden.No problem with your shots at the end,it's just how they did the original speeder flight in The Return of the Jedi.
Shrimp, I enjoy your foraging and cooking of said foraging material the most. So far I've found and eaten oyster and porcini shrooms!
The end wasn't too choppy, definitely not cloverfield shrimp.
Honestly I just line a bowl with smoked salmon trimmings and then put hot rice in it, give it a min and it cooks it, then you mix it up and add some spring onions and some butter and black pepper if you want.
I love your voice sometimes when I'm just chilling at home I put on your videos as background noice and it's so relaxing to listen to you
Oh. Smoked salmon trimmings, I can help here. Mix it with a pack of cheap cream cheese with the zest of a lemon and some of its juice, plus pepper and easy on the salt as the salmon is already salty. Wrap that in a puff pastry case, egg wash and bake until it puffs up. One of my fave recipes to use those cheap(ish) offcuts with
6:18 I will sometimes butter or spread things on my bread or toast with a teaspoon.I’ve been told I’m wrong but I’ll do as I please!
I recommend putting a bit of salt and pepper onto fresh tomato slices. It enhances the flavor of the tomatoes. Just like salting vegetables when cooking them
I don’t know why I like this channel so much but I do .
@38:36 you passed by one of my favorite albums of all time (just to the left of the "Top of the Pops" album) - "The Fine Art of Surfacing" by The Boomtown Rats! That's the back cover, but I'd recognize it anywhere... ("Diamond Smiles" is my favorite from that LP).
That’s interesting about the pennywort/ navelwort being edible. I was looking at the exact same plant last weekend in Tramore Co Waterford, which is a coastal town in the South of Ireland. There were hundreds of clumps of it growing on a very old wall. I took a picture, planning to find out more about it and to find out if it had any medicinal properties.
The fossil might just be an old screw in top of a stone bottle. I do have an old bottle with a stone screw. It's a bit off kilter, I know, but it might be. Love your channel, it's always very interesting and entertaining. Thank you for all your hard work ❤
At this time of year, smoked salmon is fantastic with eggs and young nettles. I fry the nettles for a little bit, then scramble eggs and salmon on top. Once the eggs are done, so are the nettles and the salmon is just an extra bonus. Mushrooms too if you have them. Some freshly ground black pepper, maybe fresh chives. No salt needed.
