Salmon Patties and Octopus Dip
Background
The Kitchen did something a little different for this video and welcomed a couple
of special guests: Barney and Marvin "Big Shot" Mack, Elder brothers originally from
King Cove, Alaska. Melissa, the Kitchen's project manager, joined them as their sous
chef, helping them create delicious salmon patties and an octopus dip. Not only was
the food amazing, but the experience of creating this video was just as memorable.
We are so grateful to Barney and Marvin for sharing their knowledge, stories, and
traditional foods with us.
