Seafoods that are "rare" or expensive in other countries (green lip mussels, Paua(abilone), Kina(sea urchin), etc...) grow in huge numbers around NZ's coastal waters. Some spots are picked dry but no doubt if you meet some nice local Māori's they'll point you in the right way or even go down with you
Yeah!!! Definitely try a proper underground hangi for a first timer… and the sauce he was eating it’s a type of seafood called “ Pāua“ ( paow-waa ) mixed into a cream base sauce. But over here meat is like the main source of food in every meal but there are places that serve vegetarian and vegan options or even foods that you can ask to have the meat taken out with no problem… hope that helps 😁
Creamed Paua is abalone diced or minced and mixed with cream butter onion and flour.. If you like seafood you will love it 😊 The same as fried bread, which is prepared and cooked the same way as the Native American people's... Soul food at its finest 💖👌🏽
@@anthonyswann9167 lol ive done it i just prefer not to. idk about you but digging holes when its muddy is worse than digging holes when its a nice sunny day. common sense my bro lol
@@robbie1266 iam an islander been using the hangi hole for 20yrs dug the hole only once .after using just bury the hole cover with teen shacks no problem even hoter in the island soil easy to dig.the Muddy stuff is part of process
Usually you have to make your own Hangi in the ground or in a steamer but some people do fund-raisers where they will sell Hangi for their church or sports teams or whatever. Some Maori/Poly food trucks/shops will sell Hangi too but you gotta find em. Fry bread is the best bro! Can eat it with anything! The best fry bread tastes like doughnuts and you eat em warm with butter and jam 💯 And the steamed pudding with custard is 👌🏽 gotta try that shit when you go to NZ!
There's bound to be Maori or even a Poly in your neck of the woods that can make this stuff. Maybe look at your local events (Multi Cultural) / food events😊
Checkout C&C-CHICKEN AND CORNBREAD - He is a African American living in Aoteroa New Zealand, his name Bobby Wayne, He has a Chicken and Burger Restaurant and roadside carts franchise here in Christchurch City and Auckland City, he has live post on RU-vid and Tiktok though the lastest ones I think are on Facebook.
You have the biggest paua {abolone} in the USA and the tastiest according to some kiwi divers I saw but you have to paye a fee for a license $20??? I think it was and your only allowed two paua but they are two to three times bigger than NZ ones. In NZ your allowed ten a day for free but they have to be 25 centimeters long.
Urgh… paua. I’ve never been able to get into that. Not big on seafood. The hangi tho, yum! anyone would love that. Jealous now , it’s been forever since we did one of those :)
Creamed paua is basically the equivalent to a seafood bisque in america, but its just one seafood ingredient. Depending who makes it tho, some can make them gluggy n yuck. Lol. Fried bread is similar to what americans know as hawaiian buns, soft inside, slightly crunchy outside, just a different shape..
In my Maori family, we use about 5+ ingredients for our paua chowder recipe. And the fried bread, if you used yeast instead of self raising flour, the texture of the bread just soaks up them paua juices. Lol.
@@Hellurrrrrr, paua is the main & only seafood ingredients, yes. But is not the only ingredient, as you need the other ingredients such as onions to enhance the flavor. That's all I was meaning 👍🙂
@@mayeruera7463 ohhh lmao i mean.. obviously all the extras lol i knew all that. You dont fry up paua and it becomes creamed paua. Lol. I mentioned seafood bisque, which requires a range of seafood. But creamed paua only requires 1 seafood, which is paua. I shouldve put all of that to save the misunderstanding for you sozz lol
"How does Hangi taste different"? It's effectively steamed and pressure cooked .... but, because it's cooked in the ground, it has a slight smokey, slight burnt, slight earthy taste and smell to it (hard to describe). If you're the unfortunate guy, to transport the Kai from the pit to where it's getting serve in your car .... it WILL stink your car out (that Hangi juice takes ages to get out of your boot). It's not seasoned ...... Papatuanuku provides the seasoning. Because Hangi are sold a lot in stores commercially these days or cooked in "Kai cookers" (a real Hangi is a lot of work), that distinctive Hangi flavour can be slight or nonexistent. Some people try using a "dirt sock", earth or wood chips to maintain the flavour. Old school is the best though.
Haha , eat the meat especially the ground meat it's epic , the cabbage stuffing chicken beef pork slabs Kumara potato blended flavours juices..,, mmmm so yummy.. bro I don't like meat either, but I don't hate it, Maori style numnum.. hungry Twano?
Kia ora, Hello, 'Sup mabro!!! churrr to the churrrrr brother! 👊😉 🇳🇿🤜🤛🇺🇸 😎🤙 Stay safe over there bro, shit off the chaaaain!!! Churr bro. Oh shit that's right, b4 I forget, what the world calls abalone in the oceans, we call them Paua. Say it like this mbro, PAAAA-UA. and NOT "paawaa" 🤣 But PA-UA. Because also that's how you spell it. repeat it enough times and the next generation of Maori would think you is definitely Maori hahahahaa! You need to come visit. You'll see what your fellow Americans here have been talking about. Quite a few too. And by few, we mean lots lol book that ticket G
Kia ora hello cuzzy hay my bro please check out a bit of kiwi hip hop GROUP FOUR CORNERS song NOW I KNOW ft LADI6 AND LADI6 by herself song LIKE WATER this song went platinum here in AOTEAROA she's won best urban hip hop album twice at the new Zealand music awards kiwi girl of Samoan descent and BLOODY AWESOME
I love all food from any culture. But, for comfort food ..... Maori Kai is the MEANEST. Creamed Paua is awesome ... even freshly gathered Paua fried up on the open fire on the beach is just too good. Fry bread with ANYTHING is to die for ie. Creamed Paua, jam, golden syrup, dripping butter, etc. Hangi is great ......... but, next morning all the leftover Hangi chopped up, fried up, with onions, salt with a buttered bread and a cup of tea IS THE BEST BREAKFAST EVER!!!!!!! Rewana ..... (drool). Steamed pudding ... please stop. Boil-up is awesome ..... day old boil-up reheated is BETTER. Any Kaimoana, wild pork, Titi, eel, brawn, lambs tails ...... DAMN THIS IS MAKING ME HUNGRY. That's the good stuff. I won't bother telling you about the NEXT level of old school Maori Kai .... that's more of an acquired taste. Fish heads (gobbling up the eyes), Tero teros, rotten corn (Kanga Pirau), Kinas, Teroi, old mussels, Huhu grubs and all the nasty stuff the Whanau and Tipuna grew up on. Lol. Yeah, comfort food. Great food. But, there's a reason there's a whole selection of health issues with Maori due to our traditional food ie. Heart disease, obesity, diabetes, high cholesterol, gout, etc. The guy in the video would get a better appreciation if he found someone who could get him to help out to put a Hangi down (grab a shovel and get burnt), or go hunting (chase a pig), gathering (go jump in some water or the forest), etc. Or possibly someone who can welcome him onto a Marae (go work in the kitchen, if they let Manuhiri in there) for a proper Hakari .... preferably a more rural Marae, not a big city urban one.
when doing reacts bro you should have the video bigger and you smaller thence cans what you talking bout... L&P is lemon soda...paua is abalone ..hangican be any meat/fish and veg..traditionaly made in the ground onto rocks but now can be made in a big cooker... as for racism ,sadly there is still alot of ignorance and bigotry .we are a young country with a colonial past (those racist c@NTS!) and largely immigrant population(even Maori sailed here)..it sux.. I'm Maori/English/scottish/French and jewish..my daughter is filipino/chinese/spanish. we don't fuck with racists.!!.. most the country are amazing and willing to share with you and help if needed..
I don't know what video your talking about a girl saying some kids were racist to her. But some phrases have different meanings in NZ. An example is when Steven Adams, the NZ basketballer who plays in America, called his opponents "cheeky little monkeys" there was an upcry about racism. In reality he was calling them 'little children'. In NZ a cheeky monkey is a sassy child, it has no race attached to it. So just be aware when traveling that context and understanding of differences is important, as I am sure Steven Adams is now aware that a sweet cute phrase in NZ is a racist hot potato phrase in America.
Like the U.S, Australia and Canada. Aotearoa was colonized by the British. We are still governed by the British system. And so, any indigenous or minority outside of European will definitely experience Racism here. This country still has a long way to go regarding equality. But yeah. Its home.
Usually hangi gets cooked underground but they got some places you can buy hangi’s. Fry bread the best! Cream paua too solid. Hopefully you’ll get to try some when you hit our shores my bro!
My bro, you will not survive being a vegetarian here 😂 But on some real shit, meat is everywhere. Walk out the warehouse bam there a sausage sizzle (slightly different version of a hotdog) stand right there. Then our most traditional and rapid dish a boil up, cant have that without meat, then a hangi, our seafood dishes.
Bro I got you bro your very welcome in our country Aotearoa, pauas I'll hook u up bro telling you we wish you could stay for good bro give you that peace in living bro 100%
Also the green stuff U talking about is watercress grrows in freshwater rivers here in New Zealand Aotearoa we get the earthy tarse in our food as it's cooked in the ground and get a smoky tates from the manuka Tree which I native here
I was in Turangi and they cooked their Hangi in the geothermal, 1st time I tasted a hangi done that way. It was ok, I prefer the ones cooked in the earth
Nah my bro that's not the real hangi brother that's cooked in the hangi cooker bro need that original from mother earth bro it's 100× better than what he eating
That's a steam hangi it's not the same as a hangi cooked it in the ground so if you get the chance to come to Aotearoa you can get the real thing from Rotorua marae tour
