I TRIED EATING THIS RAW | Eel Sashimi

[@WespectRamen]

That crab wandering onto the platter was like, "Ayo, what is this divine feast I just came across?!" When you were placing the seaweed on the slate, I was thinking laying some of the sashimi flat would be hard and may not look nice on such a rustic looking style. It was a great call going for the triple rose! Another great video Taku!

[@Jesus-cx2tq]

I like how you dont take us for granted and give us what we want I appreciate you sir 🙏🏾🔥

[@AceAndThings]

Seriously inspiring. One of the most beautiful plates of sashimi I've ever seen and you just improved after a catch and forage! Love how precise and efficient you are wirh everything, even shaking seasonings on seaweed. Really makes me think about being more conscious and attuned when cooking

[@eddievasquez723]

Taku your one of the dopest people alive , I always get inspired by chefs been watching you since almost the beginning keep up with the great lifestyle

[@Lordofturtles]

These are the types of episodes that hooked me on the show. I love all your content but this ? *chefs kiss*

[@HONDAMeskin123]

Foraging videos are the reason why I fell to like this channel, and subscribed. Always get excited to watch them. I live in Pennsylvania so I have always dreamed of going foraging in the pacific coast. I lived in Los Angeles when I was a kid and went fishing all the time in Huntington Beach but never up the coast in NorCal but maybe one day !

[@KyleOfTheNorth]

I want to see Taku on a cooking competition show. I think he'd absolutely crush it.

[@xThat1dude]

Agreed!!! That would be awesome

[@DeathByGelato]

That wouldn’t be fair for the competition

[@xThat1dude]

@@DeathByGelato hahahaha. Right, but it would still be awesome to see

[@kingbacker21]

it would never happen that KZbin money to good.

[@xengyang6552]

Always look forward for these coastal foraging videos! Also, Fort point beers are refreshing! Love ‘em.

[@dewclips5683]

Taku been watching you since before 40k subs and love seeing you go back to some poke pole fishing! IDK why but I feel like poke poling is my favorite type of fishing!

[@DonGrigorianFishing]

Taku this was one of your eelest episodes to date! That presentation was incredible bro!!! Thumbs Up 👍

[@LeandroCasasBandLeader]

Yeeeah! We love the coastal foraging! Thanks for coming back to it!

[@thelinecook]

Taku Tuesday is the best!! All of your videos are amazing. From Alaska to poke poling in California you always make the most amazing catch and cooks around. Love it as always. Always great to watch your vids and wind down after work. 🤙

[@gregbeaudry]

Throughout the chaos of the last two years, your channel has been such a beacon of light! Thank you for the amazing content and for your positive outlook!

[@ozzleoni6609]

You definetly convinced me after you said, "that's all MEAT!!" Bought the Misen fry pan, now my fav pan, and just ordered the k-nife. Cheers to you and Clammy Gonzales.

[@amandagarcia7386]

Taku, appreciate the effort to go back to your roots! (These kinda of videos are my favorite) also appreciate that fall and the things you are willing to do for us ❤️ Respect.

[@betzaidavazquez5579]

Taku, only foraging and using just what he needs and creating masterpieces of meals. We enjoying his creations, wishing we could taste and inspired by all his instruction. Tuesdays are awesome ! 🥰🤩👍

[@johngeddes7894]

The good thing about the Misen knife is the AUS10 steel enables the blade to be ground very thin, while also being able to effectively have 15 edge grinds. This is a big consideration for Japanese knives- the thinner the better. This AUS10 is better than the typical 440C that we see on high quality German and French cutlery. 8” is a perfect size to use a pizza peel for a cutting board if you buy a wooden one.

[@cameron1988]

My friend, you killed it with the presentation.

[@thedinhofan80]

Taku, could you make a video or short on how to make a mango sauce for sushi please? I had a roll recently with some mango sauce and it was great!

[@NuttinChunkySpunk]

Dude!! I poke poled my first pricklebacks ever this last low tide a few days ago! Pulled 4 eels out of the same hole. I shucked them like catfish and smoked them. They were are so good. I love this channel! Thanks for the inspiration. ❤️

[@chockchoola]

Poke poled my first monkeyface last weekend too! Made a nice gumbo

[@NuttinChunkySpunk]

@@chockchoola nice dude, they are super fun to catch!

[@NuttinChunkySpunk]

@@chockchoola gumbo is sounds good, clever. Hey what color was your prickleback? I'm up way north California, and the ones I'm catching are light green with oarnge spots.

[@ironmonkey4o8]

My man knows how to "sip" on that beer! lol My favorite part of the videos is seeing you pause and take time enjoying your beverage.

[@miassaltlife7398]

Thank you for all the hard work that goes on to making this video. I really have miss you doing these kind of videos in our back yard

[@benh5774]

Thanks for keeping the drone shots of the spot on the DL, and the spot safe from burning. One of my favs

[@shaboingboing799]

Putting the crab on it was so unique 😂

[@dovu7237]

Miss you guys doing your coastal foraging. Love this! ❤️

[@Singhsensation]

Bangers after banger videos!!! 🔥 inspirational

[@carcoastercards5585]

Well done Taku! I found myself laughing with you when you slipped, and actually said "Get in the bucket" out loud right before you did. Thanks for the vid.

[@carcoastercards5585]

Also, could you do a bigger segment just on seaweeds? Educate us more about them specifically?

[@kconfire]

Beautiful rose-like eel sashimi with seaweed base featuring little crab friend (17:39). He was already eyeing your catch at 14:45 :D

[@xxatlast8780]

The part with the live crab on the dinner board was fucking genius. Plz dont stop being you Taku

[@KawikaLee408]

Yes this is magical! Love the travel content but the local foraging is so inspiring! Bay area nativve here!

[@phiology1983]

My favorite out door chef. Foraging is how you beat inflation nowadays. Living off the land is a +

[@pineapplesauce6615]

hes getting paid to eat off the land. a++

[@RobBoryckiGolf]

Glad your back love the coastal stuff

[@davescheer5038]

🌴 it doesn’t matter if your fishing or catching eels there is something about watching a skillful sushi chef take his bounty for the day collecting what’s available and turning into an elegant plate , not only knowing how to make sushi or sashimi, but the art of plating is what makes things so great as we eat with our eyes first ! Great vid as always, ( next vid - bento box foraging 👍🏼)

[@krislobos5279]

Lovely as always! I love your little crab guest for the close up on your food.

[@charlescoult]

Monkeyface eel is one of my favorites. Cleanest tasting fish I've ever had.

[@hiroi5686]

Yes Taku Tuesday is here!

[@Trybelmen]

Man!! This channel needs to cross 600 k soon.

[@fireantsarestrange]

I got a couple of those Misen pans but I want knives. They are kind of out of stock at the moment. The only ones they have are the red handle. Love my carbon pans though. Awesome cookware.

[@martyphillips2175]

Yes I miss the old stuff please do more. Maybe in different parts of the world.

[@bonkey12]

This guy made raw fish look like a flower. and a fish he just caught. Respect.

[@luigiboi357]

That plating arrangement was on another level today!!!!

[@LonC1966]

I bought a Misen Chef’s knife using the link you had before. I do like the knife and use it a lot.

[@Iroxinping]

the poke polling and your foraging vids are very fun.

Would love to see a collab with someone featured who can make the skin from your fish tanned into leather . Would jive well with the sustainability themes in some of your vids.

[@BigHeinen]

Our low tide at Des Moines, WA last week was -4.34!

[@hmoobgamer4686]

I would love to see you do more than fish. Have thought about gun/bow hunting and trapping? Would love to see what you'd cook with wild game.

[@desertflinger11]

Great…now I’m hungry!! And I love my Misen chef knife. Thin and holds an edge.

[@ascendantking34]

A meal so raw the crab is still moving :^)

[@karlfairbanks1574]

Damn i was literally watching this with nostalgia remembering him harvesting seaweed and hoping that he would, and what do you know.

[@kiesbertovic1871]

Bro, a work of art! Just beautiful

[@PaintGuy]

Thanks for giving us an OG style video 👍🏽

[@nguyen925]

Yum, looks so delicious. Great work and balance on the plating. Wish I lived close to you to try bumping into you and Jocelyn 🤣

[@Hotsauce760]

sick throwback style video. love it.

[@kheeezzy8324]

Can you do a poke poling/foraging series where you travel to other coastal parts of the states. Be cool to see what other coastal areas have to offered compared to the bay area

[@divinebluesky]

I loved the cameo of the little crab 😁

[@broomstickcowgirl]

Your catch and cooks never get old! Looked so delicious! What was that on the rocks behind you at 14:45? Looked almost like a crawdad, though I know it wasn't.

[@albertchen1894]

Looked like a shore crab, Pachygrapsus crassipes.

[@davidzedd3574]

When you fillet fish with your japanese knife it looks much smoother and easier.... Do you have a code for those?
