    Hello from Southeast Alaska. The nettles should just now be getting ready to harvest at lower elevations. I usually pick them while hunting for grouse and foraging for fiddleheads. I've blanched them and eaten them as a cooked green, but I've never cooked with them otherwise. I'd love to see a recipe for the pesto- do you just use the nettles or do you mix it with another green? I would also love to see any other good recipes for them, their flavor is unique. Thanks for sharing.

    So to some it up, salt water to boil. 7 minutes per 1 lb, remember cleaning the crab and don’t eat the toxin portion. Thank you!

  • @scottpitner4298
    @scottpitner4298 Před 4 měsíci

    Interesting about skating the water. Like drinking distilled water isn’t very good because it will draw important minerals from your body’s existing water to achieve an equilibrium. As you described it would pull the salt in a similar process, didn’t really realize that

    I cooked a live dungeness in a crawfish boil mix. Really wish I'd watched this video first!!! I did not do the freezer numbing treatment and that was a rather uncooperative crab. I also did not do the ice water afterward, but he still turned out great. The disassembly was the hardest part. Messy. But all in all, it was a great experience and the crab was delicious. I will be using these techniques for a tidier crab experience.

    This was an awesome video for what it is. I’ve hunted and fished since I was very young, and my dad always told me to “make the kill quick”, “be accurate with your shots” and so on. Basically don’t be a shit head if you’re going to take an animals life be appreciative of what you are taking and prevent suffering as much as possible. With that being said.... It always seemed weird that we just threw crabs in boiling water to kill them. Like respect all of nature son, except crabs, fuck those guys. Thats how my old man was taught and I’m sure how my grandfather was taught though. If they were still around I’d show them this, but at least I can pass it on to my daughters and sons. I really appreciate this video, and I learned something. Thank you.

    You can tell she actually works in a restaurant because she's using a cheap stamped steel bladed knife in a molded handle. Most working chefs don't use fancy, expensive knives in restaurants because they will get stolen. They'll use cheap Forschner or Victorinox or Dexter knives instead.

  • @rshepherd2
    @rshepherd2 Před 4 lety

    Yes! I did a lot of searching for advice on storing fresh herbs. There seemed to be a universal consensus that you either froze them in ice cubes or set them like cut flowers in a jar with water. Tried the flower method--in two days got swamp water, three days green slime. Total waste. This is how to do it: Dry 'em, wrap 'em, and bag 'em. My cilantro and parsley have been in the fridge for two weeks and they're fine, just getting dry, which is no problem with herbs. I split the bunches in two and wrapped separately, in one bag, which I think makes the second one last longer. Thank you Becky!
