- Join Kimi as she brings along her dear friend Chef Mark “Gooch” Noguchi on a dive to show him how a simple act of putting the plentiful and invasive taʻape on the menu can be a positive win for our environment, economy, and our community. Later, he shows Kimi how to make his Peruvian style ceviche and a smoked taʻape dip.
With the help of our nonprofit friends at Conservation International Hawaiʻi and Chef Hui, many of our favorite local chefs are starting to put taʻape on their menus. Mahalo to all the chefs, restaurants, fishers and organizers joining this sustainable seafood movement!
Peruvian style ceviche recipe:
Ingredients:
Taʻape ~3 lbs. to make 1 lb. of finished meat
Garlic 6 cloves
Green chili peppers 2-3 pieces
Cucumber 1 piece, deseeded and diced or bias cut
Red Onion ½ piece, sliced paper thin
Cherry tomatoes 1 cup, diced
Oranges, whole 2 pieces, juiced
Limes whole 5 piece, juiced
Jalapeño peppers 1 piece, deseeded and diced
Serrano peppers 2 pieces deseeded and diced
Peruvian corn 2 cups, toasted
Salt and Pepper to taste
In a Japanese mortar and pestle (Suribachi), grind garlic with a good dose of salt, and lime juice. *NOTE: Grinding or pureeing garlic prevents the harsh enzymes from releasing into the air. It makes a mellower taste.
Directions:
Scale, gut, and cut into boneless skinless fillets
Dice into small cubes making sure to remove any pin bones
Use mortar and pestle (suribachi) to pound garlic into fine consistency
Spoon orange juice and lime juice into the garlic ****See above
Combine ingredients together
Put in refrigerator and let sit for about 20 minutes
Serve cold and enjoy!
Smoked Taʻape dip:
Ingredients:
Taʻape ~3 lbs.
Pickled onions ½ cup
Green onions ½ cup
Red onions ½ piece minced
Cucumbers 1 piece deseeded and diced
Mayonnaise ~½ cup
Greek yogurt ~½ cup
Hot sauce to taste
Soda crackers 16 pieces (2 packages)
Directions:
Scale, gut, and fillet Taʻape with the skin on
Season the fillets with salt and pepper
Place fillets in a single layer on a pan
Place the pan in smoker and smoke on low until cooked, approx 15-20 minutes
Note: The Traeger smoker took about 20 minutes
Take ta’ape out of the smoker.
Use your hands to pull apart taʻape meat in a bowl. Be sure to take any remaining pin bones out.
Combine mayonnaise, greek yogurt, salt, hot sauce, green onions, toasted peruvian corn and a squeeze of lime.
Thoroughly mix ingredients together and serve on a soda cracker.
Pro Tip: Place any fish guts and remaining parts in your compost bin to reduce food waste!

I’m from Fiji and Taape was one of our favorite fishes. Fishermen would have them strung on strands of mangrove tree bark and sell them by the roadside to passers by. Our favorite way to cook was to simply grill without removing the scales. Once cooked, the skin would peel off in almost one piece and the cooked flesh was so moist and tasty. So Ono! Too bad that this fish has a bad rap in Hawaii. Thanks Kimi and Chef for letting us know that Taape is good eating!
Maybe make some fish fertilizer out of the ones with ciguatera and open a little roadside restaurant using strictly invasives in soup, sushi, steamed, roasted, brown stewed, fish sandwiches etc.
Girl your spear game is spot on.
you are the best, i could listen to you talk and watch you dive all day!! plus look at buddy's little face awwwwwww!!!!!
Taape so good pan fried....snappers yummy!! Glad you caught em!!
Your son is getting big and cute boy and lucky to have a mom like you
Everyone share this please!! Let’s get Hawaii’s seafood, local economy, and reef conservation back on track! Every little bit helps.
Kimi thanks for another great video!
💪🏽🙏🏽
Amazing video. I grew up in Leavenworth WA and I share the love of the Earth and it's resources. You are amazing great message. I wish everyone could share the same compassion. My wife and I would love to meet you when we move to the Big Island.
Kimi You and Your guest is Awsome😙💜⚘💙⚘
How many dives Kimie you are awesome women .Buddy so cute as usual.Chef now can cook and tell his chef friends about these invasive fish great video.
So many! Haha I was tired!
@@kimiwerner you are awesome girl
Because of this Kimi and Gooch, when my hubby and I saw a fresh taape at Foodland Farms this weekend, we didn't hesitate to grab it and fry it up for dinner with poi and local veg. SO ONO and it reminded us both of our grandparents. My hubs used to lay net with his grandfather in Hauula and taape would be some of what they caught and ate. For myself, taape is probably the first two fish I learned the name of because we ate it (and akule) so often. it's so awesome that you are encouraging us to eat the invasives! ❤️
Kimi's vids, her love of nature, her devotion to family, comfort my heart.
❤️
I love nature too
@@ThydaCookingTV that's good wear are u from
@@pakaornellas3361 I’m from Cambodia
@@ThydaCookingTV oh wow have you ever been to Hawaii
Obsessed with Kimi & this channel! If I die in 2020, I want to reincarnate as Buddy's sibling so I can eat all these meals and be raised in this ohana
Our team just voted this as one of their fave comments 😂😂😂
I just found this channel and am loving it. I have spent my whole live fishing and diving. I am 70 years old now and don’t get to go as much anymore. I thank you for what you do and the way you do it. I believe the skills and knowledge you pass on to others is important along with a strong work ethic that’s important. I thank you from my heart. Uncle Chuck. Puna Hawaii
Soo frikin awesome. A couple of my favorite people!
Good show Kimi. You forgot , we find baby onaga, opakapaka etc. in the bellies of taape, roi, toau. They're wiping out the delicacies. Tight lines.
You are so right! The part where I said that they eat native fish got edited out because the juvenile ta’ape technically eat crabs and other non-fish species so it wasn’t specific enough of a sentence for our fact checkers but yup, to be they aren’t babies, they totally eat native fish!
Great great GREAT WORK 💙💙💙
Always so positive Kimmie loved this video you are so awesome please come back we really miss you guys ✌️
One of my favorite episodes 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽. Ta'ape is grindz..
Food sustainability!!!!
By far one of my top favorites episodes, besides the one with mom in Maui with the sweet potato haupia pie. Yay for chef Gooch! Yay for all the ono restaurants!! And yay for u Kimi!! Mahalo!!
This video is such an inspiration to go out and shoot some invasives.
Get um! 💪🏽
I just love this channel...how did I miss it?
Turtle just chilling there like "thanks for the help :)"
Thanks sis Kimi for sharing your love and understanding for our native lands and all that's in it. Those fish looking very delicious. Making me slobber. 😂 God bless forever. Aloha always. 🙏💜
Im from California bay area be exact, and love how you eat from your environment, also your friend is a funny guy 💪
We need to work on snakeheads and asian carp towards the delta and nutria around San Jose and Fresno area let's not forget the wild boar's up and down the state.
I forgot the purple urchins too.
Kimi you popped up as a recommendation, well I watched the video and I'm on to my second and I am hooked, subscription is a no brainer. Beautiful soul, beautiful woman, I can't wait for Thursday.
Your the best Kimi!
Super awesome 🤙🏽
Kimi, your videos are so relevant. I'll be showing this to my marine science class!
I love it. Take care.
Your videos are so educational. Thank you for teaching us about your culture and conservation efforts.
I love Thursdays because I get to watch my favorite show. Thank you Kim for your videos
Same!
I just come across this Chanel I enjoy her video so much!
You do great job, Jesus love to all of you.
Aloha, when I lived on Lanai, toa’u, ta’ape, and roi were my faves until I found out about roi/cig. Still loved ta’ape and especially toa’u. Glad you have more AK adventures on deck. Mahalo.
I love Toau. Where I fish I haven't caught Taape yet.
Such great content and this video really highlights your athletic ability. 20 fifty foot dives! Thank you so much for letting us know about these great causes.
will be shooting a lot more of these for sure! been diving for a few months over quarantine and love being in the water! Gooch was actually my teacher at school too! also, heard about you because you actually babysat my cousins when they were little and said to go check out Kimi Werner. Now one of my new idols here in hawaii and someday i hope to meet you! (and maybe go hit the water):)
Who are your cousins?
@@kimiwerner The Matsumura's, Alise and Aya Matsumura. They were babies I think when you babysat them.
I believe food can bring peace to the world. We should have a cooking Olympics and see who creates the greatest dish. That would be amazing to see.
u r a true island Queen...u make me so proud to know u r sharing your passion with Life, family, food and community of EARTH
Mahalo!
"The dive is not done until you have treated and eaten the fish" I love this concept.
I just stumbled across your channel and have been watching about 6 of your videos. I love your passion for your community, for the ocean, your culinary skills, and most importantly the real-ness and humility you and your beautiful family show in the videos! You are an inspiration!
Nice vid.
Godbless 😄
Kimi (also my mother’s name 😊), you’re inspirational, you have a heart of gold, and a true beauty inside and out. Keep these thoughtful videos coming, and keep spreading your Aloha.
🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽
We all need a friend like Gooch! hope you do more cooking with him ! Love the videos Kimi! Hafa adai from Guam 🇬🇺
Thanks for your service to all the peoples! We rally appropriately. God blessed you love one!.
Great video and love the sustainability and self reliance message. Especially liked that you featured local restaurants that are already doing their part.
Thank you!!!
I enjoy every second of your shows. They are so good. I like the message and how it is made. You are so natural. No BS. Awesome.
Mahalo nui!
I lived in south east Alaska for 10 years and did all the out door fishing and hunting and lived on a live a board boat while there , never dived there. I have been doing all my free diving on the far side of Kauai with the forbidden island always in view the last three winters there as a corn pollinator worker . I love seeing little Buddy in your videos, great stuff, and your video made me want to create some new dishes out of my 30lb of smoked salmon i smoked up from Alaska .
Never knew ta'ape were invasive. Grew up fishing, spearing and eating this during 70s & 80s. They not too smart but was soooo Ono, tender sweet and flaky meat.
🙌🏽
It's the same in the Caribbean? Makes no sense! The lionfish is taking over a lot of areas and people of the Caribbean don't eat them when they are delicious because they don't want to learn how to prepare the fish.
love this eps. Best PSA ever. Content and connection with a solution!
Oh man! I'm salivating over that ceviche! And the spread! Thank you once more for sharing your experience!
Information and education is the key, good job Kimi! Way to use ur platform
Mahalo!
LOVE everything you do! i live in the UK and this still resonates with me - yes yes to local food security!
Thank you 🙌🏽
You are an inspiration. Me and my wife been watching u a lot
Was waiting for next Video after saw the post!
Fantastic vid kimi.... got to be honest I'm going to miss Alaska
Us too!
Great episode ,very informative and makes me wonder if anyone on my island is doing the same.
Mahalo, Kimi! I will look for these fish for sure!
Amazing chef. That ceviche looked 💣
Thanks Kimi for sharing your life and adventures with me. I really enjoyed the Alaska catch n' cook video's. I would love to stay at your family's Lodge and I bet more people would also. Maybe you can post the details in the description for those Alaska video's. Ramp up the business. Make it a great day.
These look like they'd make nice Huachinanga con Ajo ! Score the sides before frying whole in butter, garlic, and/or olive oil and cover with slow roasted garlic cubes (they're like little croutons, but all garlic.) so savory !
One of my favorite episodes!! Love Gooch!! And love you too Kimi!!
I have to figure out what is the most sustainable fish/food for Florida. Thanks for the inspiration!
Lionfish!!
When I was in elementary school and walking close to home, I could smell the beans cooking that my mom was making for us.
That was awesome
She has such an ease and peace about her I just love watching her 😊 and of course buddy 🤩
I get so excited every time you upload a new video! I love your passion for sustainable food sourcing. I grew up fishing nj/Long Island waters, my favorite part of harvesting anything from the ocean is sharing a meal of fresh food. I plan on going to culinary school soon to further pursue my passion in the culinary field, emphasizing local/sustainably sourced produce. You’re such an inspiration!
Thank you so much!
Loved this! I moved to Waikiki a year ago with my husband and 4 boys. So important to know and greatly appreciate everything you have taught me so far!
The taape taste good. Thank you for removing the invasive species in our ocean. Keep up the good work. The taape taste great with butter and garlic. Great video!!!
Watching from Davao City, Philippines.🇵🇭
I always love and learn a lot from your videos . A true wonder woman, Kimi
🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽
kimi i wish you the best and I look up to you so much, I hope one day to have the chance to do this just like you!
Awesome video Kimi
Kimi, I love your recipes and family stories 💕
And Chef mark is just as awesome!!!
I thought Gordon's fish sticks with ketchup as a kid was the only fish in life..you've opened my eyes to fish yumminess 💃🤗
Amazing woman. Amazing friend’s. You can truly hear the passion in her voice when she speaks. Love the vids.
mahalo for sharing this wisdom dear Kimi & Chef Gooch! ❤️ 🤙🏽 Ono recipes! 😊 Yes to food self-sufficiency (like the islands always had back in the day, with the ahupua'a system). Good stuff!
🌺Love to watch you guys! You guys are da Bomb! EAT TA'APE!😋
🙌🏽😘
Kimi thank you for sharing your experience's and your knowledge of Hawai'i. It truly is a joy to watch your channel. Forever Sub
Видео снято просто великолепно. Замечательные подводные пейзажи. Спасибо ;)
If I had you Kimi I would never let u go lol Justin is a lucky man and buddy is a fortunate baby boy!
This is incredible Kimi! I FULLY support and hope to learn more about sustainable fishing and farming. I love this so much! How can those of us on the East Coast/ City life be more involved? We, the consumer, have power!
Hey Kimi, again a fantastic film. We're working on a same kind of thing up here in Shetland we have two or three species of fishes what people eaten 60 years ago and they were the main fishes here but nowadays nobody wants them. They perfect to eat and really sustainable how you just described. So we spear them and eat them happily. Always encouraging to SEA you on tv. 😃❤️
So amazing!! The similarities!
Love, love, love, love your videos! This was not only a great video in general but for helping press the importance of protecting Hawaii’s natural beauty and wonders! Mahalo! Also, Buddy rocking some toothies there looking all handsome!!
Buddy says “thanks for noticing! 🤓👶🏻
So true about importing seafood Kimi it’s the same here in Australia 🇦🇺
Great video, I like the nick name too. Lol!
Love it Kimi.
Good Job! If you can't beat it! EAT IT!
The passion and compassion. This is amazing!! 💖
I love her stories about her dad and it’s so heartwarming knowing her son will be telling the same stories
Kimi,
Great video on invasive fish in Hawaii. Please more videos on different ways to prepare these invasive species. Your video made me look at taape in a whole new way and not just as a great fish to fry. The dishes that you and Gouch made looked awesome. Also it’s good to see the restaurants you featured using taape in those different ways. Great to see Buddy in your videos, he’s growing up so fast. Looking forward to your next video.
Thank you Terry!!! ❤️🙏🏽
Thanks for the bitter-sweet information on the invasive yet delicious ta’ape...I will be sure to ask for it when we go out to eat or shopping...who wouldn’t want snapper? I realize how little I know about life in the ocean....you dive down, hunt, and back up with no tanks?....wow
Big Up from Peru!
Buddy has a big tooth! 😁😎 Mmmm 🤔 whole deep fried ta'ape with breadfruit fries.🤗
Yes he does!!!
Love your channel and I can't wait to try making this
That was awesome. I am hungry now !
win, win, win plus educating entertainment!
LOVE.. this inspires and shows me that you can make content/ money in a way that is sustainable.
🙌🏼🤘🏼🤙🏼 Love it Kimi!!
The hunter and fisherman bring it to the chef.Without them we cant manage the animals and sealife.
I love all your content, i've watch almost all your upload today
