Coastal Foraging - Scallops, Cockles, Clam and Crab Beach Cook Up

[@TheFishLocker]

- I didn’t think that this would need to be said, as I hoped most folks would have enough common sense to realise for themselves. My wife and I shared the cooking, I did not force my wife to cook because I am some chauvinistic beast. We shared it because we share things. Including the food. My son did not eat any because he did not want any. As you will hear in the video, our battery was dying so we quickly closed and signed off, my wife holding the camera. Then we sat and ate. I did not eat it all myself and deny my wife food. The fact people would even think that blows my mind. 🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤯

I gotta say, I'm born and raised in a land-locked state and I'm not into eating seafood of any kind but there's something so peaceful about watching these foraging videos.

[@DDGFK9743]

It's almost comforting to see humans just doing human things. Foraging and collecting, preparing food and sharing with your family, teaching valuable skills to the younger generations...this is what being a human's about. Edit: I wanna correct my words. I think the idea conveyed is that humans are a lot of things, which is what makes us the top of our food chain, but I feel like we've been missing these simple things that used to carry us and our generations which makes us desire them more. Living inside and only concerning yourself with material things makes you miss the freedom of the wild, but living a life where survival is the only goal makes humans yearn for more. A balance between our roots and the future would bring us peace, I think.

[@TheFishLocker]

I think I've watched this four or five times now. Absolutely love the combination of sea life info and family beach cooking. Bravo!! More foraging and family beach cooking videos please!!

[@TheFishLocker]

Me and James sometimes sit down and watch this one. It makes me smile seeing him so young. 😊

[@Moonieflower2014]

I don’t know how I ended up here. However I enjoyed your knowledge & passion for foraging seafood. Good to see young James getting in on the action too!

I am in my 50's, grew up in Kansas, US, middle of the country. Only lakes (mostly man made). I been to the east coast Atlantic Ocean, Gulf of Mexico, & into Mexico, Pacific Ocean. So I have eaten seafood, but I am not wild about it. Kansas is beef country. Never really knew what a cockle was before, except from a nursery rhyme! 😂 But this video was fascinating! I am amazed at your knowledge & how you just cooked them right on the beach. The razor clam is really ...weird looking, to say the least! That worm in the tube?!! Wild! And those clams clapping! What an adventure! Subscribing now!

[@TheFishLocker]

Thank you very much Karl. My wife and I have been to Malta a couple of years ago. I would be really interested to see what you can forage there. Welcome to our channel and if you have any questions about the videos please just leave me a comment and I will get back to you. 😊

[@karldazzi4217]

@@TheFishLocker well foraging in malta is mostly crabs, lobsters (rarely), muscles, sea urchins and octopus you have to dive for most of these tho.

It is my pleasure. I am glad that you are finding the videos informative. 😊

[@rachellynn6045]

I have no idea why KZbin recommended your video to me. But I'm glad it did. You gained a new subscriber. Purely out of curiosity and your ability to keep me engaged and wanting to see what happens next. I live on the east coast of The United States of America and can tell you from the catch, to the preparation, to the cooking, we do things incredibly different here than you do where you live. I dont say that one is right and one is wrong. Its just very different. The state I live in is Maryland. We are notorious for Fishing and The Chesapeake Bay Blue Crab. We also have oysters, clams, etc. Nothing the tube thing you caught with salt. That was crazy! We have to go "clam digging". We cook crabs whole.! One other thing that we do is make certain to either keep all of our catches in water from the time we catch them until we are ready to prepare them. If we aren't going to keep them in water, we keep them on ice. Any fresh catch that perishes before we are ready to prepare, gets tossed. We don't cook or eat it.

[@TheFishLocker]

Rachel Lynn - Hi Rachel, Thankyou for your comment and welcome to our channel. That is really interesting about the differences between over there and here. Generally anything that is found inside the tidal zone can be kept in a dry bucket. It is lighter to carry and the animals are perfectly alive breathing air for a short period so long as they are kept cool. Anything that needs to breathe water constantly ( like a fish ) is kept in water obv. 😉 The only other time we keep collected animals in water is to allow them to purge out any sand and dirt prior to eating. 😊👍🏻🎣🦀🐚

Our Western US coastlines have not offered such a wonderful plethora of shellfish in decades. I lived on Washington state's Key Peninsula a few years ago where I attempted clamming and do wish I had seen your video then. Other videos I'd viewed were not nearly as informative and the salting technique is invaluable. I really enjoyed your presentation style, I'm glad your channel came across, you have another new subscriber.
