Coastal foraging: Making the BEST clam carpaccio with Philosophy D!!

Up and out early morning with Philosophy D digging shoulder deep for clams. Making multiple clam dishes.
Currently the CA Department of Public Health has stated that it is only safe to harvest clams in Sonoma County, Santa Cruz, and Santa Barbara. For everywhere else in CA there is a high chance of paralytic shellfish poisoning. Contact CDPH for updates [phone]

[@basically_ramen2588]

I’ve watched this video several times too, because the simplicity of your dishes and how everyone enjoyed it in the end was bliss to what my eyes could see. Also, I live how you didn’t waste the bread and the sauces. Therefore, “KNIFE is LIFE!!!” 🙏🏼💯

[@samsonchua381]

Amazing to watch this video and the other one you posted this week and see how much the video quality has improved but still retains some of that natural candid quality! Great job! I just arrived in CA, waiting to start some coastal foraging!

[@yengyang8101]

Throwing down that cooking skills of Taku. Look delish. Amazing vedio.

[@26jkoy]

Amazing mud bath. With amazing people and skilled chef. Keep the vids coming. 10k here you come.

[@randomfishingadventure4533]

[@phil2559]

thanks for the info on filling the hole ! was always taught to fill it just didn't know why. thanks

[@ejkoford5303]

if you're walking in shallow water looking for clams and you step in an open clam hole, you will break your leg!

[@kanakanorcal2565]

Use the unedible parts for bait. Mostly perch. That big bloodworm too!

[@giovannapersaud2120]

I can't get enough of your videos,I absolutely love going to the beach foraging with My Thai Buddy's boy they make the best stir fry snails a little bitty crabs . if they love my Guyanese crab curry all made on the beach. yummy yummy😍🙏💘💛💚👑

[@willerama]

good on you for encouraging sustainability and ethics

[@bcwolters]

All foodies are alike; sharing and caring, and above friendly and hospitable. Thank you for sharing!

[@f.k.burnham8491]

We put the clams in a pot of boiling water for just a minute or 2 until the shells open. Makes it much easier to shell, clean & does get a bit of the sand out. Sometimes we just pour the boiling water on them in the sink and they open right up. The horse clams and cockles make a good chowder.

[@amos5597]

You’re a really cheerful person and it’s enjoyable to watch your videos!!

[@BautistaYarisantos]

No freaking way! You finally collaborated haha. This channel is gonna be big

[@OutdoorChefLife]

[@pejmantorkamani3817]

Wow I just saw this older video and as of today your channel is almost 6 times his!! Testament to your hard work and passion for what you do. Keep on inspiring us and loving your best life brother 🙏

[@ericrodriguez167]

Even if your Channel isn’t really big it’s definitely my number in catch and cook I love how I think you can eat everything just because I see you use just about everything you come across and that’s nothing to can come by I love how knowledgeable you are about the ocean I wish I knew all you know it amazes me

[@FishingChef]

WOw that looks a lot of fun to be in the mud and the food!! Great stuff Chef! Your channel is growing super fast!! Good Job man!

[@jamesjimb]

Just discovered your videos a few days ago. I must say your dishes are next level. They give me hunger pains every time i watch them. Fantastic work

[@joywelanie7770]

Awesome contents and good editing. I appreciate your version of this vid too. I'm glad I found your channel in PDs.

[@andrewsigala7470]

"knife is life" Great informative videos, great content keep up the good work

[@prreviews9768]

That's it! I am coming to Cali to help you catch and cook. Everything looks so darn good.

[@portlandreviewer6582]

Italians don't usually put cheese on seafood, so I'd call it California style. With that said, it looks awesome!

[@kellystrammy3867]

RNB indeed.. we put cheese on everything

[@benh5774]

These are great, easy and delicious recipes. Thanks for sharing.

[@WekaDigitalMediaNZ]

After a hard gather, and prepare some tasty looking dishes there bro, I would eat those for sure!

[@6denashi7ko]

I have been watching all three guys’ channels. It’s like a miracle.

[@jeffreybelmes8149]

Watching this two years from when this is made your channel is like 4x larger now

[@lazytyrantthao4637]

Nice job on the collaboration. Love your contents on this channel. You’re teaching us how to forage n cook. Keep it up and you will catch up to them in subscribers

[@OutdoorChefLife]

Thanks, I hope so!

[@dohpe-]

Just being able to teach all the different techniques (fishing, camping, cooking, general life) is definitely a skill. "Knife is Life"

[@maxsocalangler]

All those dishes looked good but that last one with the toasted bread looked bomb!!! For a second I thought you were going to make chowder out of the last one lol!!!

[@OutdoorChefLife]

MaXiNCaLi yeah that last one was so good! I was getting hungry trying to edit that last part, I wanted more!!

[@dohpe-]

That mix of textures with the toasted bread...mmhmmm..."Knife is Life"

[@mickthunder1107]

Channel randomly popped up on my feed. So glad it did. You got yourself a new fan.

[@sengsaelee1056]

Awesome video and great looking food

[@elkhunter76]

Great video! Looks like fun and the end result looked delicious!

[@drgreenthumb3777]

This is a great video, love it. Cant wait to try these recipes when pacific razor clam season starts up here in WA. Keep up the great work! You are for sure going places!!!

[@OutdoorChefLife]

Thank you! I might have to make my way up there to try those razor clams for myself!! haha

[@dohpe-]

Remix! "Knife is Life"

[@greyziedaddy9853]

Damn thanks philosophy D for hooking it up with your buddies channel. Dudes awesome.

[@moogi8676]

Great vid as always! Glad to see you’re collaborating with my favorite fishing youtubers :) Keep up the good work

[@OutdoorChefLife]

Thanks! Trying to set something up with Ish with fish next

[@dohpe-]

Collabs are so entertaining to keep commenting on! "Knife is Life"

[@camebackcat1487]

At 2:38 Taku talks about being sustainable and back filling holes, and demonstrates once again, and as always: responsible foraging/fishing/clamming. This is a big part of why we like him and his company so much. But aren't those old badly filled holes right behind him? I've never been clamming, not yet, but I will. So, are those tiny craters in the background normal? Even after people backfill their holes and the next tide has come? Maybe the landscape gets pockmarked in a best case scenario? Are those tiny craters the result of previous clammers who did, or didn't backfill their holes, I wonder? Looking forward to being a dirty sustainable ethical clammer one day very soon.

[@tomi1964]

Philosophy D led me here, can’t wait to check out the rest of your channel!

[@OutdoorChefLife]

Hope you like them!

[@dohpe-]

Now I gotta check out Philosophy D to see if he did any Taku collabs! "Knife is Life" BOOM!

[@mbagaman]

I was up in WA for the 4th and caught a geoduck and some giant cockles. Wish I had seen this video before then because our cook definitely did not do our catch justice! Geoduck is definitely best as carpaccio, not sautéed. Really enjoying this channel!

[@patrickpeterson11]

Your videos are amazing even when you're making simple dishes

[@firebird2327]

Omg it looks so delicious it’s unreal! Keep it up and soon you will reach 100k subs!

[@JohnBoy-lq9hb]

Please do a catch and cook at Davenport beach.Also come to Bonny Doon!!

[@fishsalmon8747]

Oh man...commented too soon..YES with some WINE...

[@Birdylockso]

He's right, this is "next level" catch and cook! Bravo, to combine outdoor adventure with gourmet cooking! Like I posted before, bring some wine expert and pair whatever you've got w/ a nice bottle of wine, and take it to the NEXT level...

[@elroc1]

Looks like a great time.

[@downtoearthent.9349]

Philosophy D the man!! real cool to see features on your channel! keep it up G!

[@michaellow8149]

Another great video. Love the dishes you create. I would love to try some bay area foraging also.

[@a17dyjai]

Nice!! Good job Taku! Keep up the good work!

[@youngnope4664]

I liked that part when you circumcised the clams

[@danieljibarra1098]

i remember watching you when you had 10k subs, but now look at where you are

[@BillyBob-mw7ho]

14:38 I spotted fisherman's life! Lmaoo

[@282828lisa]

Really cool!

[@mcmdrpiffle447]

What can I say? To parrot so, so many others in the comments section.... DAMN! BROTHER and SISTER! I'm local to you folks and never knew so much of this. I see some comments directed towards sound/video work, etc. on your videos. Whatever. I can turn off the sound on my computer and still get the full enjoyment from your experiences. As a fellow gourmand, I can actually taste and experience your videos!!!! Kudos Outdoor Chef Life. I subscribed 2 videos ago, (the first I saw) and will be here for the long term. /s/ fellow forager in Santa Cruz

[@HuntNreeLAndy-M]

Damn that looks hella good!!!!

[@thatgardeningrealtor]

Outside the box! Nice work 🤙

[@eyang7]

Love ur channel bro. Keep them coming

[@aidanperry276]

Great video man

[@gaslitworldf.melissab2897]

What do folks usually do with the clam shells?I think with much less soy sauce, I'd prefer the Asian style, but when you added Parmesan to the Italian, you kinda elevated the Italian dish for me. I find Soy Sauce excessively salty these days. As I youngster, I didn't mind so much, but these days, I prefer way less salt for flavor.

[@truthseeker1328]

Claims and IPA. AWESOME!!

[@elkhunter76]

Keep the videos coming!

[@bottom]

Food looks amazing

[@markailabkreations4579]

I love how peaceful and simple your channel is. It's a delight to follow and subscribe. Snagged Philosophy D too🤙🏽 On a side note: I dont even fish. Nor share this interests in life. Yet the channel is a fun ride.

[@joshgerrans6078]

New to you channel today and I've already seen all of them! Keep it up, awesome channel

[@lollypokemon]

Love your content !!!!!!

Great video man, two of my favorite channels together, Just fishermans life was missing, i hope you three film a video together next time that would be awesome👍

[@OutdoorChefLife]

Yeah I hope we do! there's definitely a chance

bro love the videos, you’ve got yourself a new subscriber!

[@jamespeter7960]

Damn that looks amazing, keep it up!

[@SaltedFishing]

Fresh, raw clam is always good...but that clam toast deal you made looks fire. Gonna have to try something like that.

[@Arms08]

love all your vids man

[@markholifield8379]

I'm watching while eating salmon that I seared in a good pan with olive oil, butter, salt, white pepper, lemon and orange slices and rice. Even though I'm in central texas, I try to make due. :)

[@markholifield8379]

and chives to top.

[@julia7711]

I think the only clams we have here that big are the endangered toheroa. Otherwise we have pipis and cockles, eaten whole because they are too small to remove any peices, there would be nothing left

[@Natalie-nx1ir]

Not a big fan of fishing generally, but since I started watching your chanel I kind of want to give it another chance!

[@JohnSantos-tj4po]

Love your videos mate 👊😎

[@Play_outdoors]

Was this Saturday morning? Missed you guys - i was further down - near the jettys - wish I met you guys in person

[@OutdoorChefLife]

Yeah it was. Wow so close, I haven't run into any of my subs yet. It would've been cool

[@Play_outdoors]

yes it would have been - it's a small world - just a matter of time we might run into each other. Thanks for posting your recipes and adventures!

[@dohpe-]

Just think, now you've run into a ton of your subs! "Knife is Life"
