- In Auckland, NZ, The Kai Ika Project was created to utilize fish heads, frames and offal which were previously going to waste. Since September 2016, previously discarded fish parts have been collected from the Outboard Boating Club by Papatūānuku Kōkiri Marae whanau and redistributed to families and community groups in South Auckland who value these fish parts and can make healthy, nutrient-rich meals out of them.

Southeast Asians and Indians love fish head curry as well. Especially the snapper heads which are delicious. The frame makes delicious broth.
Good stuff
@Zamroni In Canada, cod cheeks are a delicacy in the East Coast. Now people want everything boneless like a chicken nugget.
Yeah as Malaysian I concur with this. In matter fact some food stall made more money selling fish head curry than the fish meat
@@tiacho2893 they miss the juice of the bones , which is good.
In West Bengal India we cook fish heads with lentils or fish head with veggies and spinach
38% being considered a good yield of a field is insanity when you think about how much damage trolling does to get the fish.
Trawling is all fun and games, until it screws someone/something over. However a light amount of trolling is fine.
@@Cheeky_Raccoon we do a little trolling
@@wujia8239 It was only a matter of time until someone would pick up on that :)
Great to see The Kai Ika Project getting more coverage. They're amazing people that are doing incredible work. We can not see fish being wasted. It's such a precious resource. We to have been able to spend time with the team at The Kai Ika Project and we're humbled by their work.
In Hong Kong, certain fish heads are considered a delicacy. Especially the big ones which can be steamed with black bean sauce/chili, and it really is EXTREMELY tasty.
The meat is literally the most tender part of the fish.
I don't understand the obsession with fillets and wasting half of a good fish in some cultures. Most people in the Mediterranean and Asia eat fish whole. You use your fingers at the end and eat most of the meat you can. My wife is such a surgeon on fish with chopsticks, she won't leave a little piece of meat for cats.
Like most things nowadays, it's about convenience. People have gotten lazy today. From work to even eating nowadays with uber eats and all that.
Because they are not a poor country/people. They do not make the best use of some things because they take it for granted.
A lot of people also get freaked out by their food staring back at them.
It is a sad state of affairs indeed. Good points.
@@selvbilde253 I lived with a guy in university that did not eat any meat that reminded him that it was once an animal. So basically, everything was frozen breaded or minced (like sausage and hamburger patties). The more unnatural it looked, the better he liked it.
This is awesome, people don't realize fish are the only wild animal that we consume at a mass level. All other animals are farm animals. We can't let fish population vanish.
I mean technically the fish most consumed have farmed equivalents like salmon and tilapia but yeah you right
Eat the fish heads and collar and you'll never eat fillet again
So good to see this happening where it is appreciated the most. I've been to that marae, and the work that they do for Mangere and South Auckland is amazing. This would be a great model for other urban areas around Aotearoa NZ. Even having the community gardens in the suburbs
1 Bloody Ton a week, couple legends right there congratulations and I hope you keep bringing happiness to your communities and families :)
What a great responsible resource management system. It's awesome and us here in Australia yet again could learn from our brothers from New Zealand. Cheers mate
Chur (Chef and White person here) Love fish heads and the eyes was lucky enough to have good Chef's teaching me the ways of NZ
"Different communities that respect different parts of the fish" Kia Ora! We love fish head here in New Zealand. Our doco team is working with restaurants of all different cultures. Love this! Keep it up Munchies ~~
The cheek of the fish is the BEST part.
The best part !!!!
Man his grandma got smacked for speaking her language reminds me of my people here in the states . Use all the animal like all natives no waste .
Unfortunately not a unique experience for us natives. Fortunately, we have the shared experience that were all people of the land
Also we seem forget fish has a good amount of collagen in it, It makes sense to cook those other parts for bone broths and other recipes, and for the extra meat as well, So healthy. I would love to see a extensional video on other recipes, and how to prep/fillet these fish parts
If you want to look into it this is a pretty good video on how to break down/cook the fish parts they're showing here th-cam.com/video/Advb41d7_64/w-d-xo.html
If I had enough money, a visa (I am from Albania) and someone who hosted me, i would love to visit New Zealand, always dreamt to visit it. ❤️
You'll find a host family easy, sucks this lockdown is going on, you'll love it here!
It’s a project in an Anglosaxon world to eat sustainably. There’s already thousands of recipes for fishhead stews/curry, fish frames crackers, innards sushi/stew.
The Anglosaxon world is still living in a hangover from the Victorian age of decadence where America had seemingly infinite resources to plunder and the British had its global colonial empire to exploit. The aristocracy of the time shaped all food trends, usually being as excessive and wasteful as possible - on purpose - just to show how rich they were.
@@williamwallace9944 You don't even know what your talking about. Most people in the Victorian age walked around half starved and didn't waste anything. I should know, they were my direct ancestors.
@@funtimesatbeaverfalls that's right, while the rich aristocracy gorged on excessive spices.
Kiwi's eat them. Australians vote them into power.
We prefer horses for P.M
@@davidmitchell4268 you spelt asses wrong....
Much LOVE and RESPECT from PALAU🇵🇼. We do the same with all the fish we catch. Nothing wasted. You guys are awesome. PACIFIC ISLANDERS ARE AWESOME 😎💯
I knew french lady when I was little, who was a friend of the family, She would make a Bouillabaisse, kind of similar to a Cioppino? where she utilized all of the fish for meat and broth, As a kid I was not that into it, but as I got older my palate changed, Fish stew or in a Curry with a big chunk of bread, is just beyond YUMMY!!!
What an amazing program. Keep up the good work!
This is the kind of video that makes you believe that there's still hope for the human race.
🥳
Awesome. Well done Scott, Lionel, Sam and Legasea and the Kai Ika Project. Let's hope it is one of many such future developments that are so sorely needed to help families and communities become healthier, more resilient and independent. There are so many projects like this that can be envisioned - all it needs is imagination coupled with some help in funding like you have help organize Scott and then the people to get active and make it work.
Another video that makes me admire New Zealand more.
What a great story. My wife and kids were at a local pier when a fishing charter came back and they were just dumping snapper frames. We asked for them and bought home a heap. We made fish stock and soup, curry and Thai style fish cakes. Unbelievable how much was getting wasted either through ignorance or laziness.
Fish head boiled in water coconut cream n onions yum.
Us islanders love the fish heads too 👍
Grew up watching my papa eat that, tahitians love them fish heads lol
That's amazing. A community place where people take care of each other. Damn why don't we have something like that here?
Because America’s culture is greed
We need to fix this mindset from the cradle, if we have any hope of building a future like the one shown here. It won’t be easy, but I do believe it is possible, even within our lifetimes
Haha,just assumed the guy is American because his community sucks😂
@@seangibbons2254 If he speaks English and he’s complaining about a lack of community resources, I’m not sure there’s a better guess than America 🤷♂️
@@corpsefoot758 damn that's a pretty decent assessment 👌
@@corpsefoot758 Sorry mate but I am european.
This is fantastic. One of the tastiest fish dinners I have ever had was fried whitefish stomachs, made by a friend of mines wife, an Eskimo gal in Northway Alaska. Other than roe I didn't know you could eat fish offal. The eating of liver, kidney, stomach, chitterlings etc. from land creatures is common...why not fish? Always made me wonder what else might be tasty in there :)
Oh...also....what kind of moron would thumbs down a clip like this? I see 17 as I write this...why?
Only thing I know is that a lot of fish have incredibly oily internal organs making them probably a bit unappetising,perhaps
This is so freaking cool! Such a great mix of humanitarianism and entrepreneurship.
Fish stock and fish head curry; Yummy
People missing out
I do reaction videos on my TH-cam channel while smoking weed 🥶💯
I don't mind having that some people think I'm crazy
@@SevenHunnid Then you should go back to your channel.
Roast the heads with salt to eat or make them into soup or stock. Fry the collars and bones. The fins are especially tasty fried
MAD RESPECT 4these ISLAND BROTHERS showing how food is being distributed amongst Fam & fellow neighbors..ESP when showing which part(food, gift...etc) is GIVEN to the highly respected elders or CHIEFS...A THOUSAND SALUTATIONS from US ISLANDERS😊😊🤘
Love this! What a breath of fresh air for renewability! Great work NZ
Instead of crying and divisive rhetoric these guys are actually doing something. This is how you unite people. Culinary schools teach you to use the body & heads but to discard the eyes. Will have to try it.
That is awesome ! We can all learn from this video.
This is a very good episode.
In my Country Indonesia the most expensive part is the head. You can get 2 filet around 1 kilo with 6$ the head will cost you around 13-25$ alone.
No shit, people fight for them if it's available in a Nasi Padang store.
In jamaica we only throw away the the gut 💛🖤💚
@2:38 "is he the probation officer?"
That alone made me laugh so hard.
Beautiful beautiful work! It's amazing how they don't want fish heads in the western countries, whereas in Bangladesh, fish heads are considered the most valuable part of the fish, and usually reserved to be served to the most senior or honored guest during the meal.
I just want one of this NZers to say: “The Revolution has begun!!!”…
My dad made fish head stew alot growing up with bluefish and mahi mahi. Wasnt big on it as a kid bc the heads and bones freaked me out but it definitely tasted good
New Zealand Warrior chant at the fish .. stand on mountain tops deep breathing air .. mental Respectfully
Nice one. I love seeing the whole fish utilised. That’s the best respect you can show after taking it from the ocean. Take less, utilise more.
Agreed.... Utilisation is Conservation!
Awesome! Well done mates!
Oh man that NZ accent. I'll be back for a visit as soon as the borders open. Very proud Kiwi here
I love the whole fish. My dad would cook with the heads all the time 😂
One mans trash is another mans treasure!
For us the idea of maximum utilisation is conservation. If we can do more with less then that in itself is conservation. If we could feed more families with one fish than we did historically then that means we don't have to take as much fish out of the water. Use it completely, don't waste it!
Thank you VICE and your amazing crew for sharing our story.
Great video! My grandfather who was Vietnamese loved fish heads, cheeks and eyes lol. I prefer collars! Lots of meat left.
Love everything about it. As a kid, I used to ask for the chicken backs and would pick them clean. It was a little tedious but some of the tastiest bits are along the spine and ribs. Eating what some people consider scraps is not new to me. Glad to see more people getting on board with this idea of being more efficient with their harvests.
good roasted to..
Anywhere in central/Southern Europe fish (apart from very small ones) is almost always cooked and served whole, unless you’re eating it raw. That way you can munch on the cheeks, collar and all the good stuff.
I think it’s a very AngloSaxon thing to filet fish before cooking it.
What a humble and loving community ❤
Absolutely beautiful and how it should be done! I do the same with all my catches and make delicious soups with the head and bones if I don’t steam the whole fish or bake the large heads to eat! 😁🙏🏼🤙🏼
The cheek meat has some great texture and probably my fave part of a fish
Picked through a red snapper head just the other day after I was “done” eating the rest of the entire fish... I swear I was eating all night long there was so much extra meat 😅😂
You are fantastic! Thanks for letting me know how to cook my fishheads! I will buy whole fish from now on!
Daaam now I'm haaangin for fish curry lol stuck on lockdown in Aotearoa making me miss the ocean so much 😭
I’m Asian and growing up in NZ in the 90s, my mum could get fish heads, fish roe (from fishmongers), ox tails, offals (from butchers) for free or next to nothing.
Often they used to give us extras coz they didn’t know what to do with them.
It’s good to see that now pakeha and other NZers are appreciating these “offcuts”, and realise that they can be used for creating beautiful and tasty dishes!
Great idea guys !
I would like to eat together with this community. That fish soup looks yummy
Indonesian here. Like my Maori brothers, fish head here is also traditionally the most revered part. For example, many Minang-style restaurants offer red snapper, but when the fish head is in stock, usually the restaurant will immediately write something like "Fish head is available", "We have the fish's head" etc. on a piece of paper and stick it on their display window to indicate their precious possession.
Never thought I'd see this
In korean idiom, 魚頭肉尾. Means best part of fish is head, meat is tail. These guys are so smart. Westerns, You guys are miss so many things
Boil the fish scraps with some vegetables and make a great seafood stock. Use the discarded bits, after boiling, as mulch for a garden.
I just had fish heads curry and okra for my dinner and it was delicious 🤤😋..
Awesome stuff, great to see a philosophically-Maori/Indigenous lead initiative on such a broad reaching platform such as this, as well.
In an increasingly consumer driven World, hopefully this inspires and encourages more People to stop and think about practices around food consumption and sustainability, especially through these trying times. High time People slow down and think a head to the future of Our Kai.
Tau ke 🤙🤙
That's good, good job guy's! 👍
My dad loves fish heads and I love fish collars. Best parts of the fish, especially for a bigger fish like snapper! Yum!! ❤️💯
always been a fave of mine
Yahh we made it on munchies lol 😆. Love this channel hi from New Zealand
First thing I think of is put them in the soil of farms that mono crop to help replenish soil nutrients
Nice work!
I remember few years back my dad would get heaps of this fish heads especially snappers cause there were so cheap but now the price is getting more expensive since a lot of people are buying them now especially us asians
Great initiative. Hate to see prime parts gets thrown away.
Really the only cultures who don’t eat the fish heads are Western European style cultures.
Yup, we are Chinese and growing up my dad who worked as a Chinese chef would always tell us that “westerners don’t know a thing about food and are wasteful fools that throw away the best parts of animals”. Oh how true it still is.
@@dannykuang9433 Not a good thing to bring up considering COVID started because a man wanted to eat a bat.
@@srs6461 thats some cringe my friend
@@srs6461 Covid came from the lab in Wuhan not the wet market
@@tomknight3243 SARS came from people eating bats in China, lol.
People don't seem to grasp the plenty of flavors and nutrients that fish heads have. Fillets are good, but you seriously need to consider the treasure trove of flavors inside the heads. There's still plenty of meat on those bones.
You take them home, throw them in a pot, add some broth, a potato... baby you got a stew going!
Anything to do with Conservation is good, AND essential in these times
I use the whole fish I actually have a fish soup cooking away as we speak the fillets are in the freezer and the head and frame is used for the soup and I got enough meat of the carcass after making the soup stock I filled a pretty large bowl full I'm in not lieing when I say a good 1/3 of the meat came from the head alone and around the bones
When I used to live in the midwest in the US (unfortunately back on the west coast) stationed in the Military there, I used to gather all the scraps and whatever was left for the fish and throw it back into the lake I caught to give back to it. Never really ate the fish heads though.
I was shocked when first seen only taking fillet and throwing rest away!😢Where I come from you eat the whole lot!👍
Too bad there isnt more organizations like this world wide.
Yyyeeewww Maori girl here. Grew up on Fish heads 😋😋
What a great idea! This is what communities around the world should be doing, thinking about their brethren...
Frames a delicious smoked specially if you have a couple mates around for a beer 🍺🍻and the heads are excellent smoked or made into fish soup 🍲☺️ and the wings omg beautiful and delicious smoked mouth watering goodness 🤤🤤
the fish head song comes to mind ... never knew ppl were eating it of course
Fish filets are pretty cheap where I’m from. Entire fish are a lot more expensive though it depends on the type of fish. Though the cheaper whole fish usually have an unusable head tends to not really have a lot of meat on it and not such good flavor.
I don't like fish eyes but I normally make sure that I get as much meat out of the head and spine as possible
Good idea and looks yummy 🤤
The meaning of word "Maora" means FISH in Marathi Language (dialect of Maharashtra,Western India). you can see find a lot of amazing dishes on Western coast of India mainly from Konkan and Goa region.
Mom just made Salmon head sweet and sour soup 🥣 😋
Fish head is a delicacy in South East Asia. We make very yummy spicy sour stew or curry with it. Its to die for.
in Indonesia there a lot food with based of head fish. curry, soup etc. its not a special case food. but they it at daily basis. maybe is good to get a coverage
4:27 captions should say kai moana (seafood)
FIsh discards make great fertilizer, the flesh discards can turn into fish amino acids by fermenting them with sugar/molasses for a month and a week. alternatively just bury them. Use it's bones to calcium fertilizer too.
Believe it or not but fish, or in this case, fish parts make some of the best natural fertilizer anywhere. I'm glad that it's not getting dumped in some landfill where it's not doing anyone any good.
This is fantastic
I use to eat fish heads in college. It freaked out my room mates. The eyes are great but the best part is in the cheeks of some species. Theres a really soft spot thats pure gourmet gold.
Good job! Yeh I remember in the early 90s they gave away salmon and snappers heads for free. Mom thought it was a sweet deal considering how much they will charge in Asia 😂
Born in East Oakland, Cali!👏👏😂
From salt cod, the head & bones create an excellent stock.
