Hey Matt, the sardine community really needs a spine tier list to finally end the long debate. For example, beachcliff may have 1 fish per can that tastes rotten, but the spine usually holds quite strong.
I'll see what I can do. Yeah, I'm done with Beach Cliff.
is that true? I am scared to try beach cliff but a lot of the sardine old guard swear by them. itd be nice if theyre good since they are so cheap.
Sometimes, you have to make the right moment happen. Or, simply accept the present for what it is, and eat your gourmet tin of fish.
YES 😂 PREACH
Idk how I found this channel but I’m all about it
Matthew your expert usage of the chopsticks on that tin of fish was like a world renowned doctor performing brain sturgery! And then you bring out the champ Espinaler to give the fish a shot at the title! Magnifique!!!
"Sturgeon Surgeon" was one of the runner up ideas for the thumbnail!
all you needed with that was some bread to dip in the evoo
“cardboard underpants” Matt, you slay me!
Try sliced smoked sturgeon from Russ & Daughters. Maybe you have to grow up eating it as a kid, but it is one of the true smoked fish premium delicacies to many.
Smoked sturgeon is definitely recommended.
Thank you for that "mother and child" line, you absolute freak! Keep em' coming.
This is not a rabbit hole I expected to go down.
I've had Sturgeon in a restaurant when I worked in Russia. Loved it.
Sturgeon out of the Columbia River dividing Oregon and Washington. They were so big they'd use horse & tackle to pull them out. We call it the poor man's lobster: cut the fish into small chunks, throw it into boiling salted water briefly, then eat with melted butter and lemon. So dang good.
My first experience with sturgeon was: It looked and flaked like a densely packed can of tuna was slammed onto my plate, but had a white meat chicken flavor with a very light hint of canned tuna.
Ayooo, if you ever have another can, try it with horseradish.
Sturgeons live in rivers that's probably a really interesting difference. I think most canned fish are from the ocean.
"there's a little thing that says this is made with fish... in case you're insane"
I've not had smoked or canned sturgeon, but I have had it fresh, and it is a spectacularly delicious fish!
the music in these videos always kills me, so good
I've had a can of sturgeon and cabbage soup from Russia. It was delicious. The texture of sturgeon isnt like anything else. Firm and it holds together. I thought it was almost like lobster or crab? maybe?
Can you describe what the can looks like? I can probably recognize it.
I've a new hobby - I collect canned fish packaging. I have my first NURI wrappers framed in my office. I collect boxes and wrappers and find the packaging just beautiful. Thanks for the video, Matt. Great job.
Fishwife has very pretty boxes.
@@zolozek3327 indeed, I now have 4 of them. They are amazing
You must hate the cans without wrappper where its on the cat itself. Also from where are you, maybe i can send some from over here (belgium)
@@killjoy7346 thanks a lot! I am from USA but I travel often to Europe (including Belgium) I am in Germany today. I have found excellent sardines from France in the stores here. What brands do you like?
@@greensombrero3641 i like the carrefour home brand a lot. Impereal cod liver i really like(but no wrapper)
I also like getting spanish brands in limited edition (carrefour has amazing razor clams but 5€/can)
For daily use i mostly get aldi, best cheap brand in my opinion.
And if i feel fancy and have money to spare, chatka brand king crab so now and then😅(very rare i usually prefer sashimi).
Sometimes aldi has limited edition tuna in asian sauces, the only tuna i actually like(i usually hate canned tuna and salmon while i love the fresh/smoked)
I was expecting a lot more from something that cost that much I've seen BeachCliffs that look better.
My dad got a sturgeon here in the San Francisco bay. It was really good eating. But you have to catch a keeper and that he did.
I remember my first pair of cardboard underpants. It was not an enjoyable part of my childhood, however I feel the cardboard underpants made me the man I am today....impotent
That's definitely a fancier package than most canned fish!
This seems Insanely priced I wish you talked more if it was worth it you can get a whole lobster for 50$ I just don't see how the value would translate to a tin can of fish maybe just once to see how it is, like the gimic of buying thoes beef sticks that say alligator or some other exotic type thing
Yeah I'm curious to find some lower-priced sturgeon and see how much price plays into it. Good as it was, this is certainly a "for the youtube channel" tin.
Lobster is a bottom feeding crustacean. Just cause it’s expensive doesn’t mean it’s good
@@josecalderon4879 it was the quickest example I could give that was food related and expensive
Sturgeon fascinate me because they are prehistoric creatures. But I'm surprised to hear theres fat in them.
Yeah I thought they'd be a little steakier, like a swordfish. I don't know why.
Caviar are sturgeon eggs; that’s why sturgeon tastes like caviar.
TWENTY SIX DOLLARS!?!?
Excellent video as always, Matthew.
Thanks Ryan.
I'll be the boring one here and say that these expensive cans are a Good Thing™ ... gulp! Firstly, they're going to be top drawer quality-wise. Secondly, they'll probably be responsible when it comes to preserving the fish stocks. Finally, they make for interesting videos as I'll never be eating them on my wage! Great vid, Mateo - champagne and caviar to come? In a tuxedo, naturally!
Woah thats expensive and exotic
Caviar would be perfect with that sturgeon along with some creeeeeeme fraaaaaaiche!
You got your big spoon out of the shop!
Spanish olive oil is hopelessly underrated in this country. I'll take it over the best Italian ones every day of the week.
What about the Spanish olive oil do you like better? Price, flavor, quality? Teach me something lol. Any brand you recommend?
@@waterlife.1905 I usually default to costco's spanish evoo. Home run every time! I like Terra Delyssa a lot as well. There's a lot of solid brand out there. Make sure it has the certs or buy from places that only sell the real stuff (costco for example) and just buy it - only way to know if you'll like it. It's much more palatable than Italian. Less grassy, pungent, and obnoxious. More fruity, bright, and welcoming. Has a lovely yellow gold color that is hard to take one's eyes off of. Really complements most dishes and makes you want to eat more of it.
That box action was unprecedented. Box would make a nifty pocket protector. Tin looked slightly underpopulated but the fish looked delicious.
Continue the alt tins and get your hands on some cockles. Just bought a tin of the ones made by fangst. Very excited.
Got my eye on those.
Dude went biblical on this one.
this is like the mid-tier maserati of tinned deen-like products of the sea.
Awesome episode. Another one off the list, congrats!
We got sturgeon up here in Ontario that grow to be literally 6 feet long. I saw a guy catch a (small) one a few years ago... Weird ass fish, very dinosaur- looking. I think its also illegal to poach them.
That seems like a small amount of fish for 26 dollars
It's imported from Spain
@@dirremoire there are plenty of tins from all over the world, including Spain, that are far more affordable.
@@gbird5000 Point taken, I just started following this channel so I'm new to the world of canned fish.
What a wholesome and constructive Interaction @ dirt more and g bird.
Disagree
I never knew people ate sturgeon. I only ever think of it in terms of caviar, and I was actually surprised to see fish and not eggs in the can. Very interesting!
Tara, The Columbia has White Sturgeon, and once supported a commercial fishery. I have had success catching them during the sport catch season. They are an amazing fish to catch and eat. Unfortunately due to pressures the population has not recovered.
I like half inch steaks steamed with leafy vegetables in a soy/oyster/fish sauce. The closest fish would be halibut? It's firm and white with a mild flavor.
There are photographs of fish 20 feet long taken commercially.
They are truly ancients and I wish we had taken better care or their home.
@@jamesdriscoll_tmp1515 That awesome, and a steak with veggies sounds delightful. We humans overdo everything, don't we?
It's one the favorite upper-end smoked fish (along with black cod/sable)
I got a can of russian sturgeon with buckwheat in olive oil for 6 bucks at my local deli. Awesome.
Yup, I just picked one up at our local European market. That's how I ended up down this rabbit hole.
I can't believe they forced fish to can themselves. Truly twisted!
THANK YOU. Because of your channel I decided to give sardines another shot (also sparking my interest in other food such as this) and it has been a GREAT experience! Its great getting another's opinion on what might be good for me to try. Since you have obviously tried so many different versions, its good to see what ones you think are worth it! Keep up the content please!
I don’t know why I was expecting more large pieces but I would still totally try this, looks really yummy. Deff better pieces than the KO Tapatio 😂 And you’re right bug is way too adorable :) 🍻
Peeled it once more. 🤜🤛💪. Good stuff bruda
I have a sketchy $5 tin of sturgeon from Brighton beach, this makes me want to pop it
I'm intrigued. Where'd you get it down there?
i do enjoy canned fish
I'd pour that whole can over an asparagus quinoa with capers !
I love your channel groucho marx!
Another fish conquered! Great vid Matt 👍
I wish i had discovered your content earlier. Phenomenal
Yay my second favorite canned fish review youtube channel
Got a fishy mystery for you. Rugenfisch and MW Polar Smoked Herring in Vegetable Oil appear to be the same can?? I can only find the 12 pack of Rugenfisch, which i can't afford to send to you unfortuneately. They have the same art but the nutrition facts are slightly different. It appears to be the only can shared by the 2 companies.
You may be right. I think this happens a lot. My next video is a pair of sardine cans, from different brands, that I believe were separated at birth.
I took a tour of a fishing town. At the local cannery, they crank out salmon packed cans of a particular shape. The salmon is sold under several different brands. Same fish, same can.
i usually eat my deenz oil using some fresh bread 🥖 , it absorb the oil well , and it tastes amazing .
I was starting to wonder if I was weird for eating the oil. I'll even slurp it out of the tin some times, like a heathen.
Man I'm so hungry now
eggs and meat, mother and child. Bro that comment is gold.
Maybe a fish magnet for your fridge would make. The 26 bucks more tolerable
Cardboard underpants 🤣🤣🤣 I dunno why, that just cracked me up! You are just too cute! 😂
10 bucks of packaging for 26 bucks worth of fish.
I need those chop sticks
Wow, I heard that
Looks good! By the way, Banner Smoked Fish has chubs! Hard to find these days, yum!
“The eggs of the same meat”
yessssssss, the legend returns
That bottle of salsa espinaler gets bigger and BIGGER with every episode! Where'd you get that one, COSTCO?!?
Sup Joe! Costco are you listening??
u and the fishe are stache bros
I worked at a bbq place and we had Catfish baskets. What people didn't know was that it was Mekong Basa Swai filets.
I once had sturgeon at a fancy seafood restaurant. From memory it was a pretty firm fish with a delicate flavor.
My buddy smoked his own and it was solid, like cheese. Very good 👍
This is definitely not eat in your truck while you're working fish. I actually kind of laughed thinking about me doing something like that. You seemed to be saying delicate flavor in fabulous oil However the packaging Was the star.Perhaps saving and displaying tastefully the packaging might be a good hobby for me
I think a lot of people save their fancy boxes, at least to help remember what they ate at one time. I keep the stuff around for a couple weeks after eating for reference, but then I have to let it go.
@John Doe lol. I ate them for years while driving long haul Into the United States. Better than eating truck stop food. That road trip must have been fun
I think canned sturgeon is the biggest fail of canned fish
Hahaha -- too bad about the (lack of) naked lady but the product still looks really intriguing.
How about this, if a cans of sardines came with a trading card, I bet they'd really sell. Or if you got a single playing card with a can. Not necessarily nekkid lady playing cards!
Excellent
I thought the presentation of that can was awesome. Sleek and minimalist, but with style. :)
Very nice. Thank you. (Can we see the "conquered fish" chart?)
Hey Matt, Love the video!
QUESTION: Would you ever do a video on Brunswick sardines? I don't think I've seen them in any of your videos yet so I'd love to hear what the sardine guy himself has to say about them!
Thanks for watching. I keep meaning to get around to Brunswick, they deserve to be reviewed.
Canned cool I could take it as a hiking snack
same today as more than forty years ago
You are the man
All that oil in the can ought to make your hair shine.
Sturgeon is the pork of fish.
That did not look like it’s worth 26 USD!!!
I bet it tastes like sturgeon
there are sturgeon in the NW states
I think cod is similar in a can. Not my cup of tea, as I prefer mackerel or tuna.
bro last time I went fishing, I saw some in the water..Clarks Hill at the dam
I bought this for about 10€. It's not bad, but I don't think I'll buy it again.
I think that is a good price if it is a featured ingredient for appreciative guests. But to simply gobble up out of the can, still too steep, considering great herrings and mackerels out there around that price.
YOOO STURGEON⁉️⁉️
Cardboard underpants 😆
Savory crepes.
Looks delicious. I just had sturgeon for the first time last week that was fresh fried at a restaurant in Eugene Oregon of all places. New groovy tunes on this one?
Sturgeon is very big in Northern California and Oregon!
The gas station down the street sells sturgeon fillets!
Hey Matt, you familiar with the Mass Effect franchise? Your music reminds me of Mass Effect 1. So funky and makes me want to try new things.
Thanks Doc, I played Mass Effect long ago (!) when it first came out. Don't remember the music. I remember trying to seduce aliens, though.
anyone know the music from about 45s to 1 min 40 seconds?
More champagne, Mr. 4-Tay?
This didn't ring a bell so I googled it and that video was a time machine.
@@CannedFishFiles is how we do it at the playaz club.
Man... l'd try that as a pizza topping! Drizzle a bit of that oil from the can on it before baking... *Chef's Kiss*
Where do you get such thin chopsticks
Yeah yeah yeah
You must be cosmically connected. Did you know the full moon this month (August) is called the sturgeon moon?
I wonder how it would taste with tomato sauce
Just as I wrote that you pulled out the sauca
