GIANT SEAFOOD on Africa’s Biggest Island! Catch and Cook with Primitive Technology!

good morning everyone, we finally arrive at mana Cara, we are at the beach because today everything revolves around

seafood

in Madagascar. Mana Cara is a coastal fishing village in the beautiful country of Madagascar, in the distance, a

giant

stone pier, a reminder of the French. The occupation in Madagascar not long ago, this was a construction that during the colonial era is now broken and they no longer use it. The huge ships that once docked here stand in stark contrast to the

primitive

technology

still used by locals today. using two small canoes, so when they come ashore they just like to go straight across the beach.

The Malagasy still approach fishing the same way they did hundreds of years ago, small wooden boats, many of them hand-carved, taking to the sea with a mission. Take home as much

seafood

as possible Today we will join the local fishermen on the beach How long have you been fishing on the beach this way since I was born? Taking a look at today's

catch

is a test like a shark and

cook

ing up a

giant

seafood feast. fit to feed a people. I understand why some of the adults want to eat first, so grab a coffee and your two best friends, the fish, today we're going to make seafood Madagascar style, what are we doing with that guy over there?

What's the plan? You are fine here, in front of us, in front of us, sustaining the marine life of the ocean is a daily routine here and almost everything will go to the market. Your daily salary is directly related to your daily effort and a lot of luck. Here they just brought a net all over this part of the beach, they're not even fishing. This is like the networking section. Let's see what they have. You can see here that they are discovering the network, but inside you see tons. of these tiny fish, so since they are so close to the shore, I think they make a small profit, which ones are you trying to say to eat?

They just try to sell everything, if anything. I think it's the one you can know that the specimens are small the variety is huge jellyfish crabs small minnows and smiling skates the second option deep-sea fishing some fishermen go out around 1 or 2 a.m. They paddle in the dark, set hooks and wait. The fishermen begin to return around 9 a.m. and the result is usually a much larger fish, well what a

catch

you have here, there are a lot of lobsters here, there are some shrimp, are they still alive? They really have a way of killing them because of the way they jump what time did you go out this morning at 2:00 am? m.

How far do they go at least four kilometers and can't go any further, so they can still see the shore? Well, they're out there, you can look, but not-very-clear water sounds a little scary. Do you ever worry? One day you will wash up on a different coast and have to start a new life with a new family. Yeah. I was like, "Okay, okay, your family should be pretty mad?" If you didn't, this is Alan, I agreed to buy everything he caught today and he agreed to invite me to his village where everything is

cook

ed, we have a big family to feed, so I want to see how the other fishermen do.

It hit this one right where the beach meets the river. Returning fishermen parked their boats and displayed their catches. Look, this is the craziest crab I've ever seen. It's like a felt material around this crab. He's still alive, but he's kind. to give up the fight, please don't be in danger, we will buy it and maybe eat it or maybe it will be a new pet. There is a sort of mini stop here, a small convenience store, this pop-up Beach Cafe offers cement, some coffee and selamat fried bread how was your day? I look at this, they got a big fish it looks good it looks good seafood economics 101 this woman has already agreed to buy all the seafood that this fisherman brings from here he takes it to the market lady what If I told you that you could sell one of these tuna right now.

Oh well, I'm happy to do it. How much does a kilo cost for one of these guys? There are 8,000. Where will you check the weight? Oh, you know what I wish my girlfriend had one? fish scales in his bag one two three four four point five yes it costs about ten dollars normally they will sell it in the market they will raise the price but we are getting something like fresh off the boat price right now this is Alan's village , a complex of houses that house their extended family, the village elders gather to give us their blessings and welcome us, thank you, of course, the best way to welcome guests is with the booth, are you okay?

This is illegal rum, much cheaper. that legal rum and stronger than that rum could honestly attract her the men catch the food and the women cook the food the breadfruit is peeled along with the cassava the shellfish are crushed the shellfish are washed and Angelo shucks some oysters boys, I I give about five dollars and this is what he came back with look that is amazing taught by hand and flavored with sweet or spicy vinegar sauce this is fresh whoa whoa that is powerful like salty but I love the flavor is it from the river or the ocean of the encounter from the river and the sea you can without vinegar for you I will try it playing this time mmm very naturally salty and it tastes like river II but with the taste of ocean salt - that is very delicious you are a great waster guide I will tell you that today I will witness of some of the best flavors of Madagascar boiled vegetables mashed cassava with peanuts mashed bread spiny lobster that giant beach tuna shrimp make it easy another villager even sold me this rainbow lobster for $5 which is crazy then there's this crab potentially in danger of extinction that I had never seen before.

Have you tried eating it before? Jung-hee hasn't eaten it yet. There aren't that many people. I like to eat it. So what would they normally do? They caught him. It's like pulling. Again, this could be your lucky day, the little one, cassava is tough, it grows easily in sandy soil with little rainfall and it is also delicious after it is boiled for about 30 minutes, mashed together with some crushed peanuts. This is the cassava that was mixed with some peanuts, you can see. some specifications of the peanut there, a cassava and it's actually something like purple, almost to this sauce here, making a kind of cassava puree, ready, done, mmm, that's really good, macho mmm, like a chewy cassava, hearty and hearty, and then the sauce. it almost becomes like a sauce there mmm really simple, very good, have you ever seen breadfruit because it is a boiled and mashed breadfruit with a pinch of salt?

The only question is how do I get these in Minnesota? Nice and steamy, they look so. Well, here we go mmm, that one is very creamy, it's almost like a sauce with a lot of cornstarch, but that's just bread, fruit and a little salt. Charlie's is the executive chef and this is her diligent kitchen team at the moment, she leads the seafood preparation. shrimp are sautéed with onion and tomato covered with cassava leaves and boiled in water tuna cut into sections is thrown into a hot steel pot and covered with onion, fried tomato and salt then steamed until done Finally cooked the lobster we are left with the lobster bones ready, simply cutting them in the center, yes, because they are going to be roasted, so it is better to cut them large, how do you handle the smoke?

Are you cooking breakfast, lunch and dinner here every day? I'm serious. It must take forever to cook it must just be an all day job because you literally have to light a fire three times a day and it was at that moment that I realized that something I said struck a chord with Charlize, she was crying because of the lack of free time or maybe Charlisse is the smoke? You have surpassed yourself. He can barely relax at this point. She can't stop running the food service. Usually the men are served first, then the boys and then the rest is mixed in a bowl and then eaten by the ladies.

Charlize will be joining us, so this may be the first time she eats her own delicious food while she's still hot. Okay, thank you, she looks at these cute little spoons. Well, could you make me a fork out of our banana leaf too? I feel like I know who. I saw them, I knew Zhenya, yes, I need a fork, this is it, guys, what a tremendous effort it was out since 1:00 a.m. m. catching all this food right here orchestrating all this cooking Joel telling me what the hell is going on all the time and now the time has come, we're ready to eat, can we do this, let's do it, let's do it, oh, so look at this, everyone's going for this right away, which is cassava with a little peanuts, mmm, this is a kind of soup made with shrimp and peas. so I'm getting some leaves, some broth, it's working, it stays on the spoon, hmm, it adds a wonderful shrimp essence and then a nice oily gain, especially the leaves, it's a bit of our visit to the locality, just We call it hot leaves, hot lives. yeah, you're something you just invented, you know, it's difficult, it's a leaf, ha, leaves, can I eat the tuna with my head?

It's still hot. Wow, it's very juicy and they cooked it just in the pot with 10 spices, a little salt and tomato. They're just nice natural fatty juices oh look the kids are eating now have you ever seen a lobster that big? This is the normal size oh look at this. Some of me immediately came out of the body with a little butter on the edge. Wow, this is one. of the media locusts I've ever seen okay yeah this half can I share this with you? This is some of the best seafood friendly I have had in a long time, although it is a lot of work, but the product is worth it.

Charlie's meat truck, oh that's cool, we'll make sure everyone else gets fed. We'll make sure the cameramen are fed before we're done today. There's one more thing I have to do. Well, little friend, it was a pleasure meeting you. You seem too special to eat it. It's been a satisfying day, but it's time for me to let you go. After further investigation, it turns out it was Chinese mitten shit and an invasive species. Literally the worst thing I could have done was throw it back in the water. Have no fear, this is where misplaced compassion leads you, so, my men, you have been an incredible guide.

Thank you very much, Major Joel, you actually have a comment.
