'Tis the season for fresh salmon! We process our catch from Seward and make fresh Alaskan Sockeye sushi. After a quick trip to the woods for spruce tips we harvest spring greens from the garden for a delicious pan fried and glazed salmon dish.
~ Spruce Tip Syrup ~
4 cups spruce tips
3 cups water
2 cups brown sugar
We appreciate you tagging along for our Alaskan adventure 😀

Watching Eric and Ariel stuff their face with fresh salmon and caviar never gets old. Love it! 💕

@duanechadwick331 2 года назад

Stuff their faces is kind of abrupt. Consuming with intense gusto is more gooder.

@lisagrafton2529 2 года назад

They show us how to use products in different ways. Even if you go to a farmers market to get the ingredients. I've never been a fish person, except for canned tuna😁, but I once had fresh salmon with a sweet glaze, like they made, and enjoyed it very much! I didn't enjoy the price!

@Aundra101. 2 года назад

I know right!? 😆 Love it! I would much rather watch Eric,And Ariel stuff their face than others on that Mukbang thing going on!? Not sure why that even exists on here. I like to learn not just watch people eat garbage food.

@@duanechadwick331 "abrupt?" lol... dude, I've seen these two hunt and fish in ice and snow and process an entire moose by themselves. I don't think saying "stuff their faces" (with delicious food no less) is gonna ruffle their feathers or slow these two down. 😎

Oh my gosh! I miss living in Alaska! I loved going to Kenai and dip netting for salmon! My team part was cleaning the fish, right there on the beach. Being a Cajun country girl, this was a new experience for me, at its best! Being poop-bombed by seagulls, I just had to laugh at myself. There is no room for vanity in the real Alaska! And, I too love the beautiful color of the salmon filets. If y’all ever decide to have a fan come visit y’all, please consider me! I may be 62, but I’m a hard worker, and love learning new things. Blessings!

@WeepingWillow422 2 года назад

Lol right when you laid those salmon leftovers into the chickens' feeder, they stopped in their tracks like, "Whoa, hold up, is that fish?! 😋" Only a few of them were interested in the regular chicken feed, but the whole flock came over for the salmon.

@Gardeningchristine 2 года назад

Yeah you can hear it in their little chicken noises, they were like “what? Salmon? Yay!”🐓🍣😄

@Passioakka 2 года назад

Chicken loves all protein and the joy when I let them out after a long winter in their shed is wonderful to se. Jumping after flies and buds in the trees, digging for worms and bugs in the soil... But in wintertime they get a boost of fish to get some extra protein and there is nothing left exept for the spinal column and a well cleaned head!

@dibamoca9885 2 года назад

Great job making the sushi 🍣 Nigiri is pronounced nuh-gee-ree. Just a friendly fyi 😊 Also, don’t forget that the fresh fish can contain tape worms and other nasty parasites. Freezing is recommended to avoid them.

@daanski82 2 года назад

Thank you. Wanna say the same!

@kille6525 2 года назад

Ok Google says nuh gee ree but in Japanese "I" is pronounced like "e" and "e" is kind of like the Canadian "eh". What they were saying sounded like an African country. Like Nigeria or something 😂. Either way keep up the great work

@fuserk587 2 года назад

Glad you mentioned this. I was going to. Tapeworm? No thanks.

@gregorykons7823 2 года назад

This is so true, wild salmon is the worst offender for parasites. Last year they made a cured salmon with alcohol and that was OK but this this is probably not good.

@Min-tr1ml 2 года назад

I was wondering if I should be a wet blanket pointing this out, but you beat me to the chase. 😉 If the meat is sliced thinly enough, the worms can be seen embedded in the flesh against the light, but the eggs are probably too small to be seen. Even in Japan, fish meant for sushi are frozen to kill parasites before they are cut and served.

Just an FYI, all Wild & Hatchery Salmon contains parasites, especially tapeworms. I highly suggest you freeze your fresh Salmon for at least a full week before consumption. This is just a friendly advise. I worked many Japanese chef and most of the Wild/Hatchery Salmon they serve has been flashed frozen.

when you eat Nigeria you do not dip the rice side in the soy sauce you are to dip the fish side in it.

Do your own research on parasites in Alaskan salmon. There are three types of parasites. The Japanese traditionally avoided salmon in sushi for this reason. Now Japan imports North Atlantic salmon instead and there has been a rush of salmon for sushi.
