What the creator captured

Mark Wiens joined third-generation fishers in Kaikoura to harvest crayfish directly from the ocean before cooking them in a traditional copper pot. He was stunned by the sweetness and juiciness of the meat, noting that the boiling process allows the crayfish to reabsorb its own flavorful head butter. He considered the experience the pinnacle of freshness, emphasizing the incredible depth of flavor found in the local New Zealand Red Lobsters.
