all right i tied my gopro to the bamboo
all right i'm trying it now with the
bucket this one right here uh
i'm gonna need some practice what try
this now okay much easier
but the only problem is i gotta rotate
it all right you guys
so please please please
[Music]
don't jump out
i don't know where this the the snake
went
why do you have to join me
ah soupsick
ah there it is okay snake is still in
there okay
this is the catch for today you guys my
gopro let me go uh
onto the shore because uh it's a little
bit hard at the moment so i
give me a second but that's what i
caught there is a snake in there too
it's a baby little snake
but uh hold on sick
why do you have to come with me every
time come on let's go
with these eels oh wow look at that
so very very slimy
and uh yeah i'm really excited right now
i think it's good catch
and i'm sorry fish but uh you guys when
the fish die like this the
the crabs will end up eating them um so
it goes to something good but very cool
whoa
where's the snake go there's the snake
all right you guys so here's the snake i
just had uh
so the vietnamese string translation
and then uh the english is a pipe snake
so now officially like i caught my
my first snake look at that guy yeah but
i'm gonna let him go and everything else
in here
so you guys all the locals right now
don't believe that i caught it
i'm so proud of myself so proud of
myself
so here are the eels after i clean them
if you're wondering
why i didn't show you guys the cleaning
process is because of youtube
demonetization and probably some
problems with youtube there's a lot more
blood than i thought
and um it took forever to clean the eels
eels are very slimy in general and i saw
a bunch of videos on youtube where it's
like
the eels are alive and they pour salt
all over them and i was like yeah
i'm not gonna do that while they're
alive i'll kill them first initially i
soup sick please initially i put a ton
of salt on them
and it only helped a little bit with the
slime and then my neighbor was like you
know you should use
vinegar so i was like okay i got some
vinegar uh the vigo
the vinegar the vinegar was a lifesaver
um as soon as i put the vinegar on so
you guys can see the skin right here and
then you kind of see this uh like a
white creamy color a little bit this is
what happened immediately i left the
heads on i'm not sure if i'll be eating
the heads i'll probably take them off
just for cooking so i need to chop them
up
but it took me like 30 minutes just to
get the slime
off oh look at this guy and they do have
eyes we can't really see it
it's again doll why yeah the insides
and it's a little frozen because
something came up after the video
and it's actually been more than a few
days so the eels are still a little bit
frozen but i'm gonna defrost them and
then you know we're going to be cooking
them up
but look at these so i don't know eels
are just very interesting
creatures so the organs you know they
extend all the way down here
they're really easy to clean as i
mentioned earlier a lot more blood than
i thought it kind of looked like a crime
scene so
i felt a little bit bad but it is what
it is but here's the head let me try to
get some of this stuff off the eye i
think it's just
somewhere over here but again you can't
really see it but it they still needed a
frost
but in the meantime oh my god i just got
eel juice on my camera
interesting creatures let me clean this
off
hold on
in the meantime i need to show you
something really quick but look at this
you guys
i got baby bananas and there's another
one right here
i have two baby bananas i'm banana trees
i am so excited
this makes me so happy you know i
planted this maybe three months ago and
i already have baby banana trees growing
my banana forest is going to become a
reality not a dream anymore
but anyways i need to go to the market
to buy a few more ingredients
so i will take you guys with me to the
market for a short little clip and then
afterwards
numblum will be joining us to cook some
stir-fried
vietnamese eel
[Music]
yeah all right so some lemongrass
yeah okay
die
okay yeah come on things
okay yeah come on
and i'll see you guys i'm a little shy
filming stuff like that i just wanted to
post it for you
and i know for my vietnamese audience i
should have said mkwe bop
she knows she's not gooey bop i am cooy
bop and i should call her cheap bat and
also her husband and bad but
i usually just call them by their first
name because i'm close with them but i
know for vietnamese language
that's more polite calling than this so
please don't kill me in the comments
section you guys but
let's get started cooking all right got
num lum here but today
i am going to be cooking this and num
lum will be uh assisting me or walking
me through how to do some of this
i already know how to cook this again
i'm a professional chef
but namloom is here to uh not in
vietnamese food
any type of food it doesn't matter
professional but no moon is gonna be
helping me
a bit yes i'm going to verbally
instruct instructors yes to cook that
i want to say earth
you guys for whatever reason i always
want to say the word wet like earth
okay my neighbors probably can hear me
too they're like what are they talking
about
what you okay family name okay okay

so
you'll be helping me with the camera

me and them will eat one eel and then
i'm going to give two of the eels
to my neighbor because i feel really bad
because i was going to give it to them
and then
i was like sorry i won't but now i'll
cook it for them and give it to some of
them
i have my though and uh
unfortunately i will not be using this
today for cooking
for uh i think obvious reasons that's
funny you guys
because um i was here uh the day that
that's in coffee
so you guys all the locals right now
don't believe that i caught it
and there were some farmers like oh
what's that what's foreign what that
foreigner doing
i overheard them stay with others
farmers like
that foreign
yeah i'm so proud of myself you guys
enough talking
we are going to start cooking
some onions
die actually
no the way you do is it's not right
the americans don't do this
all right no one's going to do it you
guys yeah i don't know what to say i
don't want my out with my food
it's going to might always do like this
now you do like this away from you
it's easy look at this
okay and we got the eels now it's time
i'm gonna chop them up in sections i
will be taking the heads off because
number one said take the heads off so i
follow uh
i know why in english you guys call them
eewa
why because when you look at them you
just want to say ew
[Music]
now the cooking begins
yep we got it god we got it
the thing
this is not going well you guys the oil
was not my fault that
the design in this it popped open see
it's stuck in here now
oh yeah what's going on why is this
what is going on did the oil spill from
this
we're so bad let's try this round two
so far so good i'm trying to make this
clean you
you see that one where is that that is
not my hair that is a woman's hair and
there's only one
actually two you in soupsick and it's
definitely not soupsick
[Music]
look at that let me show you how to
start finding a vietnamese
like like you about to beating someone
beating someone with chopsticks stronger
with passion this is exactly what i was
doing before
do you like how
[Music]
okay
[Music]
[Applause]
you guys take a look at this as you guys
can see we got some yule
gum and then uh this egg meeting right
the rice from the from the neighbor the
mom from the neighbor the soup from the
neighbor
so we kind of traded you guys i gave
them the eel
and then they gave us this in exchange
but we it wasn't planned to be a trade i
was just going to give them the eel as i
mentioned earlier in the video
but coincidentally they at lunch i know
so worked out quite well
and speaking of which i got some ratings
so there's two kids
one of the kids gave me a 10. the other
gave me an 8.5
and then my friend gave me a nine he
said wrong wow
but we have not yet tried it so um i'm
i'm very curious to try it first so num
nom oil okay i'll set the soup over here
going for the eel
i know i put extra chili maybe it's too
spicy for them i don't know
that's the bone that actually went
really well
actually good yeah
looks like cotton yeah though when
originally i caught them
um you guys can tell me in the comment
section because i don't
i don't i've never bought an eels at the
market
but i was told these might cost anywhere
between 100 000 vietnamese down
to 150 000 vietnamese down so um
i don't know how much again eels are per
kilo but
i'm really proud of myself and i got the
snake too do i eat this all together
yeah but how there's bones in the eel
i'm gonna pick another piece oh god okay
so let me eat the other stuff first so
super good
now for me i'd probably
[Music]
so for you guys this for me is probably
one of the most like
vietnamese meals like vietnamese
vietnamese meals that i've cooked on my
channel
i think so yeah yes and let me try some
of the soup
what's inside is
so we just changed position you guys i
don't remember what i was saying i think
there's something in the soup
but like yeah you do you like the soup
sometimes it's too watery i don't know
they're just like two vegetable-y
vegetables some of some of it is super
long some of it is just like again it's
just like
hey we have a bunch of boiled vegetables
and we have leftover stuff so we'll just
turn it into a soup
don't get me wrong there's nothing wrong
with that but some soups are just
you have to agree with me on that yeah
so next time in the next
um video dustin gonna cook some what's
the soup so we can share them on that
i'm trying to think of like a western
soup to eat though pumpkin
like a butternut squash soup but i have
to use a blender yeah
i don't know i don't know if you guys
really want me to i can okay try to
try the the mom mom
super successful over the last few days

before with trapping also super
successful and i got a snake

bit more left we are going to continue
eating this

breakfast time for you wherever you are
