Would You Try These Plant-Based Fish Alternatives?

[@lucillashlie38]

I loved the last scene with you and your team, backs to the camera, sitting on the grass with the glorious sea before you, hoodies on, and you congratulating them for their work, as they tucked into your fabulous cooking! It was very touching. I felt like I was watching high cinematography! BUT NO, it was a real tender moment of authenticity!

[@gazoakleychef]

my best friends !

[@antoniovargas1146]

Hey Gaz, wanted to say thank you. My oldest sister had a brain aneurysm in February. After being in the ICU for months she had lost a lot of memories and struggled with eating. Once she was home my parents struggled to get her to eat for a month. I made her your plantain salad one day and she ate the whole thing and loved it. Now my whole family makes the recipe. And my sister is eating better. She said wow where did you get the recipe. She’s doing better now. But thank you for the inspiration.

[@Kittiesdawn]

Oh I really hope she continues to improve...please tell her that there are people thinking of her now and sending up prayers xxxx

[@NoahElRhandour]

OMG Gaz! Just made the fish cakes to the letter and they were amazing (so good, I ate 3 🤪) I’m just marinating the watermelon now for tomorrow and doing the scallops for tea. Thank you so much for sharing.

This man loves a challenge and the sheer talent and beauty behind these recipes along with the details and the variety next to the shoutout to conservation and activism makes me not only sure I’m going to make at least one of these for my family and watch the documentary but that I’m going to recommend both. Not the first time or the last the perfection here sells me on everything it’s about. Bless this man and his crew and channel and all the people who support the philosophy and art.

[@GreyMan216]

I made the watermelon tuna tonight and WOW, super impressed! It's not just the only tuna that's dolphin-safe, it's also ocean-safe! The texture and flavor is mindblowing. I'm definitely going to make this when I want to impress a bunch of people.

They make windbreaks for cooking outside like this, you can even get a whole folding camp kitchen that has shelves and a windbreak for the hobs and shelves for prepped ingredients. That might help if you decide to brave cooking in pretty locations again in the future!

[@miracleshappen4483]

Gaz, when I lived in Italy, I could find flakes of seaweeds of Bretagne from France which I used to sprinkle on pasta and risotto dishes. In the past, I used to live in Japan so I ate tons of nori, konbu (to make soups) and then fresh seaweed salads. Nori and kombu have a very peculiar strong taste, however, I found the fresh seaweeds the most enjoyable because of their slightly sweet and gentle taste not as pungent as nori. Once back in Italy, I totally missed the taste of fresh seaweeds because we, as Europeans had never had the tradition of eating them until France stepped in. I'm pretty sure you have them growing in your area too but just to try, check in natural shops if they have them dry. They taste great, please try them! A big hug. 😁😊💖😜😀🙏😉🤗😄
