- This video is for uni lovers who want to learn how to open a live sea urchin for the it's flesh/uni inside. It will show you how I like to obtain the uni and eat it as sashimi at home.
BTW, I have tried to open a sea urchin the CORRECT way (split open in half with knife) but I found my method to be less dangerous. Also I don't need to touch it in any way. All the black stuff stays mostly in the shell, so I don't need to see it or have it spill all over counter top/inside my sink.
Tools needed:
1 pair of tongs
1 pair of sharp scissors
1 or 2 long DQ spoons
1 pair of chopsticks
A large bowl
A sieve
Fresh cold water
2-3 tablespoons of Sea Salt
To see the correct method, go to my new video below:
• How to open sea urchin... - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
This is the true explanation. The Sea urchin is alive. It has a nervous system, but, it is not complex enough to feel pain or emotion. It tastes slightly buttery, and rich. The black stuff is a poisonous sac. This answers most of the questions. Thank you.
You’re welcome
What happens it u eat the black stuff
@@matthewthetiger1649 if you eat a massive amount of it you can feel sick
Guess who's serving sea Urchins with black stuff toppings for guests tonight?☺
@@Kirungi_Birungi you!
I really hate hypocrites and ignorant people who act like "oh my god, why do they eat that! Poor animal." When they brutally eat chicken nuggets and bacon without a second thought.
Because chickie nuggies nd bacon is gud cuz... Get with the flow nigga
+Matteo Arriaga nigga you ain't gonna steal mah chicken.
+DukesideoftheMOON well this is factual if you are into religion or the bible at all. the book of Leviticus tells us all about the food we are and are not allowed to eat. it helps guide us from the food that is good and the food that isnt. and sea urchins is not good for us humans because we are not allowed to eat bottom dwellers
+DukesideoftheMOON You got something against lobster, shrimp, clams, cod, flounder etc... too? Otherwise it's not really fair to target only sea urchins.
*happily eats a bucketful of chicken*
Pretty sure thats a blizzard spoon from DQ
Dillon Papst this is what I came to the comment section for!
Asian.
Legends say if you stick it into anything it won't spill
Dillon Papst it's says it in the description 1 or 2 DQ spoons 😂😂😆😆
Dillon Papst SAMEEE
how on earth did i get this bizarre fascination with how-to videos on cooking the most bizarre animals imaginable
@pika pika! omg me too
Pika Pika! Lmao same
Pika Pika! Time to cook a Pikachu lol
yesss I said the same thing
Am I the only one that thinks the noise when she's cutting it sounds awesome
cedy ruffin Omg yeesss. Like this is my second time watching the video only because of that sound. I guess you can say guilty pleasure?
myown2ndhandman you guys should look "scratching asmr"
The sound was irritating
yeah too noisy crunchy and too much effort before getting the price inside lol
I like the sound of it too
The first person to eat this must have been desperate AF.
Aren't you asian
Deon Raghunandan 😂😂😂😂😂
damn son
deon raghunandan boy, aren't you stupid and naive.
You call me stupid when your name is cheeky dickwaffle lol yeah sure I'm the stupid one
Whenever I see a sea urchin, I think of that one scene from Surfs Up, where the urchin is complaining on live TV . "Stepped on me? THIS GUY WAS DANCING ON ME! Look at this - broken, gone, gone, broken, broken, broken..."
Same! XD
YES SAME
Omg.. yep. same.
Same omg 😂
+Mary Udomah THE WHOLE TIME.
Those cutting noises should be in a ASMR video
Boring stuff to do truuuuu
Boring stuff to do I WAS THINKING THE SAME
Who the HELL looked at this spiky ball of death and thought," Damn, I would LOVE to eat that'????
I did
Emily Greene Asian
Over millions of people.
Emily Greene It probably started as a bet
Emily Greene people who were starving obviously. not everyone lived around cows and chickens
how did I end up here...
I'm asking myself the same thing.
Me too, I started with watching soccer!!!!!????!😳😳
That's how it happens. Just spiral of weird viral videos haha
Yep
I have public exams next week why am i here
Why is this so satisfying to watch?
I don't even want to eat this. It looks gross. But I love watching people make it
me too
King Spooky Skeleton omg me three
King Spooky Skeleton I want to try it but I know as soon as I get a chance to try it I will back out immediately but I love watching these vids for some reason
same
Omg ikr
why in the world is this so satisfying I've been watching this for 5 years omg I'm addicted to this I'm serious
I like sushi a lot, like seeing them cut up all of the different types of fish and make foods from them.
U would enjoy ASMR content then.
OMG SAME HAHAHAHAH I always come back to it 💀💀
Thought I was the only one😅
Fr it’s the sound of the shell and I just wanna eat the Shelly part. I get this with mr bean the movie when he eats that huge shrimp and the claws it looks so yummy but I know it’s inedible lol
Imagine playing dodge ball with sea urchins
Super Sand only a super sand would say that
If you can dodge a sea urchin you can dodge a ball
defeating it, only makes it tastier
...
+Queen_of_Hearts1984
ha
This is the most satisfying noise i've ever heard in my life lol.
what about Spyke😢
Tilton Darrington Oh man i forgot about spyke lol.
النيتروجين برو NitrogenPro lol
welcome to asmr
ikr lol i love crunchy noise
Anything that's evolved such drastic measures to look unappetizing has got to taste delicious.
Nathan Baker evolved?
If I tried to do this I know I would have fucked up and ended up with an arm full of spikes.
Seraphic Lunacy ikr
Some things are not meant to be eaten and this is definitely one of them.
This taste good
Kami Wa
I never had any, so I can't say it's good or not. But to eat something like this, is disgusting in my opinion. Sorry if that offends you.
Ryu Hayabusa But seriously though, try it before you knock it this stuff is so good. And better for you than the processed stuff sold in stores.
Ryu Hayabusa
If you can't provide reason why it isn't meant to be eaten, then you've failed your opinion
Ryu Hayabusa so are you consistently watching japaneese live ingredient sashimi vids because i keep seeing your comments
So its fine to kill live sea urchins, but when it comes to killing lobster or octopi, all hell breaks loose?
Welcome to youtube comments and, more often than not, the USA.
lol.. it is completely different. Sea urchins like jelly fish do not have brains.
StarcraftPROwannabe Oh, so brains are what matter? Then why do people not bat an eye about killing hornets and such?
Pinkie Pie because they are basically brainless.
and when people kill hornets or fireants for example it is because they are usally harming the environment around them or even people.
but the noise it makes IS SO ODDLY SATISFYING
(this post is officially 2 years old follow me on instagram @txxkat lmao)
yes it is!
Omggggg yazzzz
+x_xKatelynn AKA really? i thought it was annoying sound of agony like crunching snails when you walk through a lawn on a rainy night
+x_xKatelynn AKA google asmr and thank me later
+x_xKatelynn AKA lol agreed
why do some humans have such a strong desire to eat things that scream "DONT FUCKING EAT ME"
Well the reason why these things grow defenses is because they don't want to get eaten anymore. Like a cactus that wants to protect its water storage so cacti began growing pricks.
That's like asking "why do wolves have such a strong desire to eat things that scream "DON'T FUCKING EAT ME""
omg Aleks XD
😂😂riight
Literally everything has natural defenses against predators ; INCLUDING the plants you eat. -.-
Those spike noises..... makes me ... shiver.
BelpherithStudios nerd!
I can see, you are a anime hentai!
BelpherithStudios I'm blocking you for harassment.
isnt ocelot harassing you??!!!???
Lieutenant_Number_5 ________ no. hes just a nerd.
For some reason I loved watching this. I've always felt so much interest for foreign recipes and food. Also, her voice is so sweet that it makes you want to keep listening.
Thanks for all the comments. = ) All comments welcome. Opening sea urchin in my opinion is the same as eating any type of seafood. They all need to die once before we can consume it right? People steam live seafood, boil live seafood, or smack a fish silly before cutting in, or fishermen freeze seafood right away when it comes out of the water. It's all the same. Seafood dies once we process it.
Jasmin C
What does it taste like?
DarkCloud Eye Of The Storm {PurpleExtinction}
It's kinda buttery
the very first person that ever try'd to eat one of these things, how desperately Starving was he/she to try and eat something like this. this is more work then its worth lol and 1 slip and your going to get poked
its called culture 😘
+adri lol Eating sea urchins wasn't a part of any culture before it was done. Your logic is pitiful.
I wonder who the poor soul was that figured out the black stuff shouldn't be eaten.
+Albert Quigley chill albert!
Just think, she said those things are still alive. Mean while she's just casually cutting away at it's body.
John Longneck Sea urchins cant feel pain, A sea urchin, like all other Echinoderms (ex. starfish, sea cucumber, sand dollar), does not have a central brain, but rather a single ring and nerves branching out from it. Its nervous system does not have any centralized processing as far as we can tell, and instead operates more or less like a diffuse nerve net.
Get rekt john.
they have to keep it alive because once it's dead it starts to rot
John Longneck
Just think, you're stuffing your fat face with hamburgers
BriBri Haze You do realize that the human brain evolved to its current state BECAUSE man started eating meat as a mainstay instead of plants, right? homo Sapiens would never have evolved into what we are now if we didn't eat meat.
Geez even sea urchins arent safe from humans.Why would anybody want to eat those? ....why do we have to make everything into a food lol?....idk maybe its delicious just seems like to much of a pain in the ass . no offense to anybody else that enjoys these though.
Lol your a Super Goddess... Funny and beautiful. Please say hi sometimes..... Danny
OMG really !!!!
Dan Anderson 😀 hi friend
Ruben Sanchez hahahaha yes
emma Grace
Why would anyone do That ! Why ?
I'm only watching this video because of the sounds.
Imagine being super hungry and craving sea urchin cause this process takes patience 😂
It would be even worse because i have Hypoglocemia, sugar usually doesn't help with me so that would be a pain in the ass ;-;
+Fay Ayunie Probably not much more than making something like mashed potatoes (not the instant kind).
What most people do:
Salvage all of the edible insides and throw everything else out.
What I would do:
Empty everything out of the middle (including the edible things, I don't have a taste for it), Cut off/sand the spikes so I can't get hurt, clean it, and use it as a bowl for chips.
+AMG Crossfire What?! I know it probably wouldn't work but if it did no one would steal my chips xD
lel
+Catsandkits hahahaha xD
Considering that uni are a growing threat to out coral reefs, I'm all for eating them.
I love that beautiful crunch noise
Me too....love it.
This takes ASMR to a whole new level xD
I love the crunch noise sooooo much too
RainItOnMe123 yazz
She sounds like the Asian hippie on orange is the new black.
she does lmao
Snitching Ass Catherine SoSo!
i dont understand why people are saying that this is torturing the animal. EVERYONE eats animals. and how do you prepare it? by killing it. i just dont understand. people kill pigs, cows, squids, shrimp, dogs, cats. i can admit it is wrong to eat the animals the way we do, but people just do it. im not even sure if im making any sense but this isnt even torturing. if the person killing the animal was just killing it for fun, THEN thats called torturing. I JUST . UGH.
I don't eat animals. Guess you can't say EVERYONE does anymore.
I think they mean all cultures of all regions. Not individuals.
An alternative is in vitro meat.
***** It's dead... who gives a fuck what people say... People say a lot of stupid shit.
If the Urchin was alive the spikes would be moving.
Well, they may barely be alive. But none the less, Urchins can not feel pain.
hmmm why you not use the sea urchin Shell for playing football? or maybe volleyball?
or a hat
Lol lol lol lol😹😹😹😹😹😹😂😂😂😂
Do what as to die 😂😂Lol
Oh gosh, that sound makes my ears ring! I never had uni sashimi... or sea urchin for that matter. Seems very interesting.
Until now (2018) i'm still watching this video over 900 times😂 soooo satisfying!
When people hear "Live ______" they usually end up disliking the vid and posting a comment on how it's "wrong to do that". Makes me laugh every time
it's so cute when she says 'uni'
I came across this video when I was like 7 and come back time to time as im seeing it all over tiktok and I just wanna eat the shell the sounds of the opening is lush
The bit you removed first is the mouth. And the yellow 'uni' bit you are eating are the Gonads or testicles..... enjoy!
Jeff G oh.
It’s actually eggs
I think i like the sound of the sea urchin shell makes
Top Three seafood that are my best choice to eat. They are; Sea Urchins (my #1), Sea Cucumbers (my #2), and last but not least the slipper lobsters (my #3). If I had my way I would eat them everyday. Jasmine C, man, the inside of that urchin is to die for, its meat was fat (A HEALTHY CHUBBY URCHIN). It just made my mouth watered-heading to the fish market today to get me some, I have not eaten urchin in a while. My style of eating them is to soak them in soy sauce mixed with lemon juice and hot pepper then have them with a bowl of steamy rice.
Sofang lol thats sounds like something my asian ass would eat
The crunching is so satisfying!
Haha loved the dq spoon. Tempted to look for it in a local market and try to make a dish.
Let me get this straight. thousands of years ago
Jeff- "hey bob, does that look good to you?"
Bob- "What?"
Jeff- "This sharp thing."
Bob- "No."
Jeff- 'I need this in my mouth A.S.A.P."
Hey I'll tell you a way of opening a sea urchin!
Throw the spiky thing and a god damn wall.
If that doesn't work do it again.
And again..
And again....
OMG THIS VIDEO MADE ME SO HUNGRY
Do sea urchins taste good??
1. They taste bad as fuck.
2. They can make you have a bad stomach ache.
3. They ARE FUCKING SEA URCHINS. THEY ARE THORNY AS FUCK.
Audrey Roberto Well then why people eat them?'-'
It depends people have different tastes so you might think it's good while others don't so it just all depends on your taste
+Audrey Roberto 1. They are "thorny af" on the outside. 2. If it tastes like 💩 and you know what it tastes like, you had to be curious to have eaten it some time or another . 3. Opinions are like buttholes, everybody has one but doesn't care to hear everyone else's.
+Melissa Jarnigan Not to mention that all raw seafood has a chance to cause stomach aches if you do not eat them often. A person that has never eaten raw fish won't have the proper enzymes or w/e in their stomachs to deal with it. After you've eaten it a good couple times, your body will have adapted and created them to deal with it. Also, depending on how careful the chief is, fish that isn't fully clean can cause some problems.
Uni is my absolute favorite sushi. I've never had it by itself, as sashimi before though
Lol these comments! Herbivores judging carnivores, carnivores judging herbivores. I'm just waiting for the cannibals to show up. That ought be an interesting convo.
yo!
The spoon looks like it is from the Dairy Queen.
Tbh, uni sashimi is bomb diggidy af. We wanted to make sum at home but we only buy sum because 1, we cant find sea urchins. And 2, its hella spiky. Thanks for making the vid 😀
The scissors cutting into the sea urchin sound is some good ASMR...😴
Question: Is the shell in any way alive or neurally connected to the urchin or is it simply like and out protective shell detached from the urchin itself? Please no comments about me being stupid or ignorant on the matter i just simply don't know much about shellfish and urchins.
lmgtfy.com/?q=sea+urchin+shell+connected+to+urchin+itself
Your spuid
im spuid?
It is similar to a shell like on any arthropod (insects, crustaceans, etc.). The urchin does not feel anything. In fact, urchins are very primitive in terms of neural function (it's essentially non-existent) and it would be fair to say that the urchin does not feel anything that is happening to it and it DEFINITELY does not know it's being killed.
JacquesBodaire Cool thanks!
that urchin looks like a nice ornament of some sort. Will i be able to clean and dry it so i can use it as a candle holder or something? lol
yes you can actually if you clean it right and not make a big whole but it's preference big hole or not it last 1 to 2 month or so
+Willow Bayonetta Jeanne Yes, you can. There are videos on how to remove the spikes and the black stuff then putting it in a bleach/water mixture making it a ornament. I don't understand why she didn't do that, if she wouldn't have wanted it she could've done it then sold it.
watching this for the second time bc the sound when the sea urchin cracks is so satisfying
I could listen to this girl talk all day long.
You're not supposed to soak the inside.. you'll loose the original taste
umm afaik, sea urchin is a scarvenger, it help the sea cleaned by getting rid of garbage by eating it. eating it raw might tasty but remember you are eating a sea garbage e.g. fish poop, muds and dead fish. umm
well the thing is the yellow part (the only part you're suppose to eat) is the urchins "gonads". Its not actually its stomach/intestinal tract so you won't be eating any of the suspected things you've mentioned
so as crabs, lobsters, shrimps.. and for me, they does not taste good...
I want to try this, same with sashimi. I really like seafood so i think i would like this.
why is the crunch from cutting into it so oddly satisfying
Means your a psychopath for enjoying death
"You need a pair of..chopsticks..!"
WELL, GUESS I'M FUCKED.
As a Swede, I don't..understand your food.
What is this?
Where are the meatballs?
I wonder who would hv thought
Hey! Lets eat this weird rock we found in the sea
Charis Lim ARMY
that crunching is satisfying
That's one hell of an unboxing.
I know im idiot, but i want to ask, is that red thingy is blood?
Ikr
no its not blood, they don't have blood. they function on a water vascular system. same as seastars
and they actually do have a nerves, that's how they function, by one nerve ring in the center of their body. so they could feel pain, we don't know.
and last thing, the fact you are asking means you are FAR from an n idiot. 🙂
why on earth am i watching this i have to do homework
same here...
No hard feelings but I just love your voice...1000 likes for your voice
Question: why isn't the black stuff edible? Is there something that might happen to you when you eat it? Or does it just tastes bad?
Isn't that the front, where the mouth is? Not the back
not sure if she knows what she's doing.. haha
Nimex Draconia
That was what Im thinking as well hahas
Takeru51, The "mouth" is on the underside smarty pants. Jasmin C knows this, but I don't think you do.
isnt a mouth, is da butt.
Asian buttrape!!
What does the sea urchin taste like any way? looks like a scrambled egg to me! ^_^
***** oh ok thx! ill try it! next time coz i can see some sea urchin at the market! that creeps me out when it moves!
+Ryuurah Gen its very unique and the texture is basically butter lol literally melts in your mouth
Also try to put vinegar..it makes it much yummier!
i thpught it was mango's
Lets find a new weird creature from the ocean and see how we can eat it lmao, i have seen them brake down most of them already!
what is the black goo for / why not eat
I have never eaten sea urchin but I really wanna try it. Hopefully soon. :3
i come back to this video a lot
same though 😭
Who would willingly eat some sea hedgehog
This ASMR is so nice.
The sound is so relaxing omg
hugh mungus what
Is it vegan?
Are you stupid?
Sea urchins are animals. So, obviously not. >->
No. But is it delicious? Yes
When people don't catch sarcasm.
+Shmagala It's kinda hard to catch sarcasm when you are reading a comment. Unless someone clearly explains it (which did not happen here) it's almost impossible to notice sarcasm.
I really like the sound when she picks the uni out
They say "brave was the man who ate the first oyster"
But braver was the man who ate the urchin, but boy was it worth it. Fresh uni is easily one of the top 3 seafood
dis person is bad with chopsticks
did person do nut know how too spel
wut
VIKTORR!!!
Lol, I'd just stab it until it opens.
LOL
Never tried sea urchins hope they taste good
I love this so much, getting stung or whatever they do hurts 😅
I don't see why you would want to eat that. Like, just leave the poor thing alone. haha
Just seems like such a faff when there are much easier things to prepare that taste much nicer.
Because it's delicious. That's why.
Sean Foley
I raise you pizza, this or pizza? Choose your destiny.
well, now I know I will never try this as I know its harvested while alive.
Mike The Gamer It has no central nervous system. Its one step away from harvesting a carrot while its alive...
wrybread still doesn't change the fact that we choose to harvest meat from a living thing while its still alive.
Mike The Gamer don't eat a carrot then
aeniq I cook them first.
Mike The Gamer do you cook salad as well?
I remember when I was like 8, I watched this video and now im back lmao
Ok but why was this so satisfying?
Oh my God! I wish I hadn't watched this now. All the ignorant, rude, unintelligent and uneducated responses to this video. SMDH...
Like...
I know people kill animals for meat to survive, so why is a sea urchin any differnt? Smh as well
alexthecrystalgem 82 A lot of head-shaking in the comment section these days lol.. Shakes-my-head-like-a-salt-shaker*
Zara Zen yes...and lol
I agree! It seems like this level of ignorance in our World, is growing in epidemic proportions every year!
The uni at the end looks like poop.. ewww..
So.. what IS that black stuff inside? just organs or like... body fluid of it?
Peta: no sea urchins were harmed in the making of this video
Damn that's gotta hurt like a bitch.
that's so sad
scuzzy187 Dowling LMAO
what does it taste like?
the sound is so satisfying *crunch* *crunch*
I fill like I'm going to puck
How exactly does one puck?
+Kitty the Cat i don't know, maybe hockey?
+Kitty the Cat one does not simply puck
Why would anyone eat this pile of cat shit when you could literally just eat a fish that actually looks like food.
+Kyle Conley Fish doesn't actually look like food. Nearly all foods are acquired, not natural, tastes.
crazy808ish True but fish looks like meat which is a much more traditional and normal food than something such as this.
+Kyle Conley well that really depends on what you watched parents eat as a small child doesnt it? i mean dogs think it's prefectly natural to eat kibble, there are people whos main source of protien is insects. it's cultural.
+Kyle Conley i'd say it is because there are some noobs at fishing, so when they really cannot catch even a flu, well, they see the poor sea urchin as their "worse could be not to eat"... so yeah... they're stuck with the sea urchin XD
+Kyle Conley I mean, why would you think that a fish looks like food in the first place?Only our culture makes use think that specific things "look like food". For instance, cow's milk, peanut butter, and tomatoes were all considered either a.) disgusting or b.) poisonous, and thus were not food, for several countries around the world.
I wonder if it's good ? I love seafood😻
For some reason this was satisfying.
