Taku saying… “very easy to make dish…” Actual process - Speared the fish, drove it from SoCal, cleaned / prepped it, extracted the egg sacks, salt cured them, marinated them, prepared other side dishes, then actually made the dish itself, plated it - all whilst filming Dude you’re next level

Honestly Taku, I've been watching your videos since you had less than 13k subs and the quality of your vids are constantly getting better and better. I legitimately feel actual joy every time you post a video and seeing how happy you are and how successful your channel has become with all your hard work. I am so happy that you can live your dream. Excited and looking forward to your Alaska trip! Keep living the dream

The van looks absolutely insane. Can’t wait to see the final product

Watching this at home while eating instant mi goreng and trying to pretend it’s what Taku’s cooking and eating 🤙🏼😂

Just in time to download before I lose reception! Gonna enjoy at camp tonight 🏕🔥

Anyone just like the video before you even watch it because you already know it's going to be good? Edit: the pasta looks soooooo good.

I can’t be the only one that found it oddly satisfying when Taku was cutting the scales off perfectly…

I read mny of the comments and they focus on you Taku but ive enjoyed BOTH of you and feel its your personality mix of honesty and love that makes your channel a favorite.

Oh mentaiko. I remember that stuff. My dad use to request it when he was alive. I useto hate preparing it because of where he was from (Hiroshima Prefecture) there is a certain way to serve it which involves a BBQ and it smelled so bad. That and sanma and saba. I'll never forget it. I'm so glad my mom never asks for that kinda stuff.

Love when you make these vlog-style videos and experiment with different things all in one episode! The bass breakdown, mentaiko curing, van tour, pasta and sashimi plate and then grubbing out at the end, felt like I was there at a day in the life of the outdoor fam!

Can't wait till Jocelyn fills up that little fridge with fish!

I can tell that you love what you’re doing, I’m happy for you man, i love these videos keep it up

I love hownyou show a "normal" kitchen and you guys are REAL normal people woth awesome passions and interests. Love everything you guys do!!!

Alaska!?! I simply can't wait!! I LOVE Alaska and am totally looking forward to those videos! Even more so than your Hawaii videos. Yay, can't wait!! The van is looking great!

Mentaiko is one of my favourite things ever! It's amazing to see you make it, like an exciting collab but with ingredients.

That meal looked so delicious!!! Loving the vlogs Taku& Jocelyn! The can is coming along quite nicely too, well done! Bring on the Alaska Road Trip!

It just keeps on getting better, love watching your channel

Gotta love Taku Tuesdays!!! Great content as always bro!

Great to see you utilizing the Roe, I’m American and love the roe cause I was around my grandparents a lot and they ate it. The newer generation doesn’t eat it like they used to years ago, but I still do and love it.

Your videos are always an inspiration for me too try new things and try living off the land ! Keep up the good content

Congratulations on 500k subs. Must be unreal to think it started with foraging for uni at the bay. Happy for you! 🥳

Looking forward to seeing what you catch on your trip to Alaska. The sockeye are starting to run up here and I think you two are going to have a lot of fun.

great wholesome content dude, keep it up

Awesome!! Mentaiko spaghetti, Korean spicy egg soup and raw salted egg over fresh rice are some of my favorites. Really like how you show us use of more than just the meat. 🐟 🤙🏽

I can’t wait for Your Alaska adventure. It will be nice to your videos with the catch,clean, and cook. It will also be nice for you to get out of the city. Have fun and be safe. Peace, Dennis

Your knifeplay is humbling taku, great vid !

Cool video Taku. Love your respect for the fish. Next time I try roe I'm going to marinate it before eating!

Taku with another banger, can’t wait for the Alaska vids 🔥

Your van is looking amazing. As good as your sushi. Can’t wait to see you cook inside your van looking forward to see what you catch and cook…👌

That van fit out is sick!🤘

Jocelyn sneaked into the van 🚐. Making sure you don’t try to leave without her…😆

That is an awesome design for the bathroom!!! Beautiful!!!

Glad your blending your cooking n the van life. You should just show your life as it is :)

Genius layout in the van! I just might have to steal this idea ;)

Love the videos brother can’t wait till you come to New Zealand sometime

Finally been waiting for this.

HAPPY 500K! YOURE THE GOAT

IM EXCITED FOR ALASKA!!! I could only imagine the beauty y'all are about to experience. Cheers❤️

Awesome taku Tuesday. Cheeewhooo. Ur videos are da best cuz.

Is it just me but I can’t wait for outdoor chef life road trips!🔥🍣

Love the vids always Taku!

Neat design man. Thats crazy creative

6:53 he's got a painting of a fish... I love it..

I love her hats bro, like she has the best hats ever

Love the video! Keep it up Taku!

This vlog style video was really good. Great job guys🙌🏻 Also, Joselyn (sorry I misspend) look so good with that haircut😍😍😍

I love these fusion recipes you come up with. I hope your thinking of dry curing the other roe sacs to make some bottarga because that stuff is the bomb 😋

You know a fish is big when you have to quarter it! Amazing work

Another truly amazing video! Love how you use ALL the fish - roe, milt, liver, cheeks are my favorite parts of fish, and they usually wind up in the cleaning-table waste bins here in Homer, Alaska. The van-build is superb. Looking forward to following your drive up here to Alaska and your many interesting experiences in this big state. I would love to see you get out to Atka I. (in the Aleutians) or perhaps the Pribiliof Is. to interact with the native folks and compare recipes and harvesting techniques. Atka is a beautiful island, with a small, but very friendly village - I think you would both enjoy each other a lot. Lots of interesting wildlife, both marine and terrestrial, including introduced caribou, and a big volcano. You might also find the diving exceptional, but need to rent some cold-water equipment. Would also love to see you get to some to the coastal villages that still hunt whales and other sea mammals to compare with your Japanese traditions. Heck, you could spend at least two full years (or more) up here and have an amazing compilation of videos that would continue to generate income for decades! Oh, I LOVE the fish/kelp print - beautifully done.

The only catch clean and cook youtuber that uses every part of a fish

Enjoy watching your video Taku! Thank you for sharing

Awesome video! Let me give some advice on scaling the fish... Scale it immediately on the boat when you catch it under sea water, which will keep the scales from flying everywhere, and then vaccumn seal it before you throw it on ice.

Love watching these ! Damn bro! 🔥

good job mate! I cook a lot and I've never hear about this recipe thankyou

Good video. Look forward to seeing you new video on your trip to Alaska.

dude, your van...frikkin beautiful inside. Its nicer than most house kitchens!!

Great video, Enjoy your content and a pleasure to watch you both. The van looks great , can't wait to tag along , Always wishing you the best 💗 🎣🚐🌟👍

Taku’s skin is amazing wow…… 👀 glowing much

Stay positive taku love your content

Dope knife skillzzz!!! Best on KZfaq!!!!

O. M. G. that looks amazing. thank you for sharing your knowledge.

ALOHA braddah Taku, keep on keeping on 🤙🏽

I've never been into raw fish but I may have to give it a shot. This looks so good

I'd keep that box and the printing is a very good idea better than a mount and a great way to document your adventure's ,be like having art that your friends will love when they come over talk about conversation pieces.

Love your channel and your show. I've watched you cook a lot of sushi and I would love to see you make iguana sushi. Much love from Australia

Your peaple are slot like my people for food using every bit you can. Much love from Iroquois Mohawks 👍🤠

Love your videos chef

He has such respect for the fish... very admirable

The van is looking hella nice!!!

coffee + taku tuesday (wed here in the Philippines) = Great morning

Taku! New member here, saw a comment of you at Mav's channel! So I came here and yeah, nice vids man! Kudo's! :) Like your way of fishing, camping, cooking and being. ;)

Wow when I saw those egg sacs I thought the eggs would be the size of ikura. Turns out its almost exactly like mentaiko. Looks great! Also for those who dont like mentaiko because of its fishiness i recommend trying it with sesame oil. They go great together and taste great.

I have learned so much from you Bra! Dang!
