  • 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!

    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! ❤️

    • @kimiwerner
      @kimiwerner  3 года назад +1

      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!

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 .

      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.
