Taku and Jocelyn, thanks so much for spending time with us on our little island and sharing your amazing chef skills. We look forward to recreating these recipes as a family!
love how taku is out here supporting other channels, small businesses (breweries and this Inn), talking abt sustainability, etc. Really good content and just so much heart
I have been fishing puget sound for 15 years and caught hundreds of dogfish. This video has completely changed how I view them as an edible species. That dish looks delicious and I will definitely keep the next one I get. Love the channel! Enjoy the PNW!
I'd always thrown them back, fishing in the Puget sound growing up. This video inspired me to trying catching and cooking one using this technique and it was super tasty, did mine as little fried panko bites. Lots of meat from one fish, fed like 5-6 people with it. Would eat again, thanks!
I love eating spiny dogfish. If you marinade it in salt, pepper, dill and lemon juice for an hour then bbq it you will love it. Dogfish are a great food source and so easy to clean. Great video.
Another awesome video!! Love to see you cooking a shark!! There are so many shark recipes in Asia. I hope you can introduce other recipes in the future as well!!
So pleased that many and varied people are reaching out to you and Jocelyn, you have one of the most fantastic channels and for me you always leave me feeling relaxed and satisfied. I look forward to your ever increasing popularity and wish you success beyond your dreams.
@@LuckyMoniker Assuming you are here in the Bay Area, try Grocery Outlet - the selection for the price will BLOW YOUR MIND! Unheard of deals such as old vine zinfandels for $6/bottle!?!??!?!?
Nicely cooked! Spiny Dogs are great to eat. I used to make them up like chicken tenders oven fried for my students! Called Rock Salmon in British fish shops! Great dipped and fried too! Of course...No Bones!
Taku!! You're a good dude!! I love watching your videos. I'm an avid fisherman and love sushi and your style of grub. I am alsoust a quarter Japanese lol. You and Joslyn are killing it. Keep it up! 🎣
AAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SO exciting to see Lost Giants Cider on TH-cam!!!!!!!! I love that place, its up here in Bellingham! Such a great cider company, great vibes and the people who own it are very nice! Great video! I hope you're loving the PNW. I wish I could meet you and Jocelyn! Have fun while you're here and try to make your way up North if you can!
Another awesome video. The hole on the clever is for hanging it on a hook and the clever for chopping meat like asada, carnitas, tripas, beef tongue for tacos 🌮 or chopping large pieces of meat.
Taku you’re in a beautiful part of our country! I have fam on Whidbey Island and love, love, love it there! Fishing is awesome and just a chill vibe. Enjoy your trip and get Jocelyn some muck boots!!!
Taku, you should check the sharpen on that cleaver. Usually it’s sharpened so the heel is more blunt for breaking, and towards the tip it’s Sharpened at a finer angle for slicing.
Takuuuu, always great videos brother. Maybe you should let Jocelyn take over for a few episodes since she catches most of the 🐟 fish... And you be the cameraman...LoL 😆😂 awesome work Jocelyn. I will be sending a couple of brews to y'all. I hope you both enjoy them 👍👍💯
Awesome, been to Lopez island, we did a 50 mile bike ride between San Juan island and Lopez island, with our Boy Scout troop and Crew 6 years ago was fun, lots of rabbits on Lopez island.
Nice catch Jocelyn, and as always sick dish Taku! Cheers to both of you guys. I also love beer!... What up with the salmon painting!?!? Looking forward to seeing that beautiful piece hanging. 🍻🤙
To my knowledge, the hole in the end is to put a steel dowl to hammer on if cutting through bone, and you hit the dowl instead of the back of the knife.
Over here on the east coast we spiny and smooth dogfish. They're both considered nuisance fish so there isn't a limit on them. As a surf fisherman they have saved the day for me quite a few times over the years. Farther north spiny dogfish are a bycatch of the cod industry so they process them and ship them to England for fish and chips. The hole in the clever is for hanging it up.
Shark is a welcome addition to a bouillabaisse when braised as you so expertly prepared it. The meat is tender but if left in larger sections as you did it will hold together and blends well with other stronger flavored seafoods. Ands a great umami aspect. Hope you sent a GoPro down with the crab trap, that is always entertaining to see what transpires a few fathoms down. Thanks for all the adventures that we get to live vicariously through you two. Keep Takulin the world! Aloha
As a Camano island, Washington resident, this video was super cool to see come up after I literally just went and caught four dogfish today and I knew you could fry them but I see this guy on Snapchat all the time and I had to watch this video
It’s really cool to see your videography skills evolve and develop over the years. Your videos have always been great and it was never bad quality by any means, but it definitely has developed into really really quality videos. Love your stuff bro!!!
Just discovered your channel a few days ago, then realized you've been right here in Puget Sound all week! Great channel, keep going. I'm glad you guys had some sunny days while you were here.
"Pour a little for Jocelyn". Gotta have a drink when you cook. Never gets old watching Taku's knife skills. I may have to get a clever for myself also. I like beer too Taku. Aloha 🤙🏼
love dogfish.. its great in a fish curry as well. been eating it since i was a kid, over 30 years now. really plentiful everywhere. Also, i only have one knife, a cleaver.
Good one Taku keep'em coming. As for the clever, I have no preconceptions so would be unbiased. I saw a chef surprised by the cutting ability of the knife right off. It went through the shark with no problems. It cut the veggies quickly with only one problem I could detect and that was with the second slice of tomatoe. The long veggie was a problem only because the length of the blade was shorter than you were used to. A different technique was called for there. You over came it well. The transfer of cut product was facilitated by the wide blade done so quickly. It got the job done and with little effort. I am not as expert but the clever seems to be a very good product that works well in the kitchen. A lighter more nimble tool would be easier to work with but you used the clever well. The meal looked extremely tasty.
I’ve always been intimidated to prepare fish. Especially fish that I caught and had to butcher myself but Taku broke it down so easily for me that I’m all about it now. Thanks man.
the cleaver is great for making those big chunks that need a little extra weight to cut. the hook hole is a nice feature, however, the surface areas versatility is what i like most about a cleaver.
Found your channel through NWFS. Loving the videos. I have super bad crippling anxiety and this calms me down lol. So cool to see how much knowledge you have about what’s edible. Opens my eyes to food opportunities! Proud to be a new subscriber! Born and raised in Seattle. Cheers 🍻
The hole in the cleaver is for hanging it up to give better control of the blade. Could also use it to help free the cleaver if it got stuck while breaking down the different portions of the animal.
ah cleaaaaver. been using that ever since i could remember in my asian family. thing can do so much stuffs and one can last a pretty long time if used well.
FYI I was once told that sharks don't get cancer. But I have always loved the taste of shark above almost any fish! U can rarely find it in the mkt like years ago so I'm gonna have to go fishing for them myself this year! Beautiful video and thanks for keeping me sane these past few months!
Taku and Jocelyn, thanks so much for spending time with us on our little island and sharing your amazing chef skills. We look forward to recreating these recipes as a family!
Thanks for having us!!
Shark looked super tender, our sharks in South Florida are a little tough. Beautiful looking dish Taku!
collab inc?
Shout out Landshark Outdoors
Yo you two gotta collab
That would be the best collab every oh myyyyy
Can’t wait for the collab!!
love how taku is out here supporting other channels, small businesses (breweries and this Inn), talking abt sustainability, etc. Really good content and just so much heart
Fremont brewing is good stuff.
I have been fishing puget sound for 15 years and caught hundreds of dogfish. This video has completely changed how I view them as an edible species. That dish looks delicious and I will definitely keep the next one I get. Love the channel! Enjoy the PNW!
Definitely!

See my comment. I grew up fishing the Sound, and still do in my 21' Hewescraft, out of Anacortes.
I’ve watched every outdoor chef life video and I can’t understand how he only has 400k subs
same!
I’ve been watching since he had 40k subs! I’m already so glad he’s gaining traction
He is growing crazy.... obviously you haven't been following Taku
Thanks for watching!!🙏
@@OutdoorChefLife greetings from Holland, mate! I'm going to fish for shark too, hopefully I'll catch one I can take with me (very strict EU rules) !!
Appreciate the honest review on the cleaver even though they sponsored the vlog. Good work Taku and Jocelyn!
I love eating spiny dogfish. If you marinade it in salt, pepper, dill and lemon juice for an hour then bbq it you will love it. Dogfish are a great food source and so easy to clean. Great video.
Chinese chopper is a one stop shop for everything, cutting/slicing/smashing of cloves/clevering bone etc
^agreed, takes some getting used to but nice to have -especially like saw for scooping. Not always used to cleaver/chop through meats.
the chopper is great at filling your chicken dishes with tiny shards of bones, too. mm-mmm, my favorite -_-'
its also good for lashing out at people.. jk.
Needs 10 million subscribers ASAP your videos are wholesome and your relationship with jocelyn is very genuine and warm
Another awesome video!! Love to see you cooking a shark!!
There are so many shark recipes in Asia. I hope you can introduce other recipes in the future as well!!
For sure!
So pleased that many and varied people are reaching out to you and Jocelyn, you have one of the most fantastic channels and for me you always leave me feeling relaxed and satisfied. I look forward to your ever increasing popularity and wish you success beyond your dreams.
A tip I was told by a professional chef years ago was to NEVER cook with wine not fit for drinking… I’ll drink to that! 🍷🤪
Jickmady Kulkarnisteakbacon the problem for me is the good stuff will find my stomach before getting into the pot. .
you can find a 'good' bottle for $10 if you know where to look, but it takes some local knowledge usually
@@LuckyMoniker Assuming you are here in the Bay Area, try Grocery Outlet - the selection for the price will BLOW YOUR MIND! Unheard of deals such as old vine zinfandels for $6/bottle!?!??!?!?
if it isn't fit to drink, it shouldn't be sold ..... however, cooking with expensive wine is a waste of money - you won't notice a difference
I drink boxed wine. Unrelated question, do I use the box in my dishes too or no?
Thank you two so much, I love watching ❤️🔥💃🏻🏕
Nicely cooked! Spiny Dogs are great to eat. I used to make them up like chicken tenders oven fried for my students! Called Rock Salmon in British fish shops! Great dipped and fried too! Of course...No Bones!
Just ordered the cleaver! I’ve been looking for one and decided to take a dive!
Such beautiful scenery and the food looks delicious!
We love the way you are cool in any kitchen! Be it on the beach, or where ever
Taku!! You're a good dude!! I love watching your videos. I'm an avid fisherman and love sushi and your style of grub. I am alsoust a quarter Japanese lol. You and Joslyn are killing it. Keep it up! 🎣

The scenery in your videos is always beautiful.
finally it’s taku tuesday!
TAKU TUESDAY!!
Taku Tuesday!
I have those same MERREL boots! I just used them for a hiking trip in Colorado. Even in 3 inch snow they work great and feet my stayed warm.
"I love beer"... yeah me too bro. Thanks for the vid!
I love Takus reaction every single time he takes a drink of beer!
I always get hungry from watching taku , shark is delicious! Cheers from Florida
Another delicious looking dish made from Taku! Jocelyn looked happy to be there on the island!
We stayed at the same spot on our trip to the San Juans. Highly recommend it to anyone interested in visiting the area.
Another awesome video. The hole on the clever is for hanging it on a hook and the clever for chopping meat like asada, carnitas, tripas, beef tongue for tacos 🌮 or chopping large pieces of meat.
I thought that the dog fish shark would be dry too ! Nice catch Jocelyn and cook up Taku ! Thanks again !
Food looks delicious ...island looks beautiful ...that place you guys stay at looks comfy👍🏽👍🏽🙌🏼
Shark!? Wow...
Great fishing!
Taku you’re in a beautiful part of our country! I have fam on Whidbey Island and love, love, love it there! Fishing is awesome and just a chill vibe. Enjoy your trip and get Jocelyn some muck boots!!!
Taku, you should check the sharpen on that cleaver. Usually it’s sharpened so the heel is more blunt for breaking, and towards the tip it’s Sharpened at a finer angle for slicing.
I’ll check , thanks!!
My parents owned a Chinese restaurant when I was growing up. The butcher knife will always be my go to lol.
Fantastic surprise on the texture and tenderness! The preparation is mouthwatering.
That one turned on my Yummy Vision`~
2:05 laughs about the cheeky boot shot they took lol I love it. Love your videos man. Would love to get some knives soon
can we just admire how perfect Jocelyn's eyebrows are lol
Leif sent me. Enjoy learning more cooking and new ways of trying foods. God bless
its so beautiful everywhere where theres water
So glad you got to see Lopez, I visit there often and is so beautiful.
Made it. Fantastic! Really good, and everybody that tried it said it was fantastic. It didn't last long, lol! Thank you!
Dear Taku, your videos have inspired me to learn how to go camping & learn how to cook. I haven't done neither of those yet BUT IM STILL MOTIVATED!
It was pretty cool to watch you gradually get faster and better at finer chopping using this clever
Takuuuu, always great videos brother. Maybe you should let Jocelyn take over for a few episodes since she catches most of the 🐟 fish... And you be the cameraman...LoL 😆😂 awesome work Jocelyn. I will be sending a couple of brews to y'all. I hope you both enjoy them 👍👍💯
You guys make such good videos. Really nice that you share your life with us thanks for the videos keep them coming.
Idk how this man is not at least at 500k. This Chanel deserved at least 1mil lets get him there!
Awesome, been to Lopez island, we did a 50 mile bike ride between San Juan island and Lopez island, with our Boy Scout troop and Crew 6 years ago was fun, lots of rabbits on Lopez island.
You two are very good at what you do! Great content. I get so hungry after watching.

TAKUUUUU...this set up is SO NICE. It's really awesome to see this for a change instead of y'all cooking outside
we used to go fishing for them with squid off of watermans in port orchard. Catch like 10-20 a night and throw em back. Suuuper fun fish to catch
Oh nice my cousin is living in Seattle i want to visit someday. good morning from Tokyo thank you for the vid.
As a Camano island, Washington resident, this video was super cool to see come up after I literally just went and caught four dogfish today and I knew you could fry them but I see this guy on Snapchat all the time and I had to watch this video
Welcome to Seattle!!! It’s a beautiful place to live and fish! I love the Bay too but Seattle is hard to leave.
You guys live such a simple adventurous life.
Haha I was just thinking about the hole too and yall just pointed it out too. I always wonder what it was for too.
Congrats on reaching 400k subs! You came a long way! Keep going don’t stop! All your hard work will pay off for your passion of fishing and cooking!
Loving the pacific northwest episodes! looking forward to more adventures.
It’s really cool to see your videography skills evolve and develop over the years. Your videos have always been great and it was never bad quality by any means, but it definitely has developed into really really quality videos. Love your stuff bro!!!
Watch every single one of your videos every single day since they came out
Just discovered your channel a few days ago, then realized you've been right here in Puget Sound all week! Great channel, keep going. I'm glad you guys had some sunny days while you were here.
Great chopping technique with the tomatoes!
💛...how's the seaweed and shellfish foraging on the island?...
I live in Las Vegas NV I CANT stop watching your videos man keep up the good vibe. Wish I lived by water
"Pour a little for Jocelyn". Gotta have a drink when you cook. Never gets old watching Taku's knife skills. I may have to get a clever for myself also. I like beer too Taku. Aloha 🤙🏼

I've never had shark before but looking at that dish you made...I wouldn't hesitate to give it a try.
I love the chill music... Classy as always... I really dig the cleaver..!!!
my parents live in Anacortes. Love it out there.
I like the look of that cleaver . . . gonna have a look. Many years ago i spent some time on Bainbridge Island. I didn’t like the rain.
Yeah the finish on the cleaver is nice!
Taku: " I love beer "
Me: *Takes sip from beer* Me too Taku. 🍻
You guys do so of the coolest things

You guys are awesone! Joseline is one lucky foodie, and Taco''s girl.. omgeezy
He's the lucky one.
SHARK MEAT gives you lots of energy...!! Would this dish be good with a side of wild rice?? Thanks Taku..!
I’ve always been intimidated to prepare fish. Especially fish that I caught and had to butcher myself but Taku broke it down so easily for me that I’m all about it now. Thanks man.
Oooo as a hunter I got real excited when Hunting episode was mentioned!
used to live by Friday Harbor. Great place. Cold but beautiful.
Dope music, dope scenery, dope video quality, dope food
Great video! Keep em coming!
sick cinematography this video! Keep up all the good content!
:)
You are the closest thing 2020 has to Bob Ross and Mr Rodgers...my 8yr old son and I love your content. Thank you.

great video taku and Jocelyn as always 👍
like ur boots👍👍
Cleavers are awesome I just got hired to clean fish as an essential worker, my hours suck but I'm trying to progress to working on a boat
Awesome video. Keep them coming
yessir, love these kind of videos. much love from Hawaii
That island and resort is freaking beautiful. If I am ever up that way I'll look it up!
I live in L.A. so that place looks like paradise! Gotta go
The hole in the cleaver is for hanging it up to give better control of the blade. Could also use it to help free the cleaver if it got stuck while breaking down the different portions of the animal.
Fremont brewing is THE BEST, lucky!
When she whipped out that wine glass 😂😂 smooth
ah cleaaaaver. been using that ever since i could remember in my asian family. thing can do so much stuffs and one can last a pretty long time if used well.
The hole on the cleaver is for hanging it since it would take up a lot of room in a drawer it make for easier storage to hang it up
