Watch a Sea Urchin Diver in Action

Check out this great video from the new Munchies series, Hunter and Gathereter, in which we see into the world of a sea urchin diver.

The video shows Stephanie Mutz from California as she heads below the waves in search of wonderfully fresh urchins.

The 15 minute clip is a real insight into the world of diving for the prized food that’s loved by chefs the world over.

Mutz explains the process in detail, how a decision to dive is dictated by the weather and how the taste of the catch is a hit and miss process.
