@@Taylor_in_Southern_OregonIt works with repetition. When I was a kid, I used to fall asleep every night listening to an old school cassette audio adventure. My insomnia was particularly bad one night; I was up all night, and finally heard the whole thing. To my surprise, I already knew most of the dialogue. Even though I’d never been conscious to hear the last half. So it does technically work. But keep in mind, this way probably after 150+ times of listening to it.
I love that fireplace. The entire cabin-project is a wonderfully soothing and exciting journey that always touches me. Greetings from Northern Germany.
To those in the chat talking about 3D-printing wafer** irons; Make sure it is food-safe, binders for sintering can be toxic. Maybe lost wax casting would be a better option for producing an intricate shape without smithing skills.
@7:51 that is still the best way to make scrambled eggs on a stovetop. the gordon ramsay way, he shows the 21st century method but it's the same fundamentals. and it makes the b e s t eggs on toast.
With the first one having cheese in it. I have a question for you on that one. How would they store cheese in an area that gets really hot in the summer without refrigerator like AZ?
How do you keep from getting food on your cuffs? I am completely marveled at how you do this, for every time you cook, you have shirt/coat cuffs right down in there where you are working. I would be a mess if I didn't roll up my sleeves!
Wow. I just tried birria tacos for the first time a couple weeks ago and now i am absolutely going to make this one day. Thanks, man! Absolutely delicious!
@@hollydaugherty2620 That's nice to know!! I know I'm biased because I was born in the city where Colman's originated, but it really is the best mustard. 😊
I am fascinated by the episodes focusing on journey cakes and the like(corn dodgers, hard tack and the like). I live in the Sierras and it's a twenty minute drive just to get to the paved road.
I think this channel and especially these compilation videos are maybe the greatest escape from reality videos on RU-vid. If I feel fed up with the news and the other unpleasant trappings of modern life, these videos deliver all the homey, quaint and charming aspects of antiquated life without any of the negative aspects of said life.
10:58 well my Frisian grandmother did beat the egs in the pan, so you'd get clumps of egg, not an omelette like pancake of egg. just be gentle beating it in the pan for it easily spills over, but it id doable.. A friend of mine immigrated to Poland, I visited him, and I got introduced to his Polish in-laws, and her mother served bread with egs just like my grandmother did.
1:42:32 in Northern east part of Netherlands they are still made, in Groningen. and the rolled ones are eaten on oldyears eve, representing the past year rolled up, where the flat ones for new yearsday represent the new year spreaded out before you. In regulair Dutch there are mostly the rolled ones for sale, but in Groningen also the flat ones. But it is still a tradition to make them at home, instead of buying the factory ones.. "kniepertjes" old Groningen dialect for "squeezed ones" you might say.. they seem to be squeezed between two irons, and every family has their own version of the batter and ingredients.
I actually tried the chicken wings and they turn out great, with a clean earthy flavor. I have an awful electric stove instead of an open flame, so I had finish them off under a broiler. Else they would have turned out perfect
i eat a handfull of spinach after every meal. if i look far enough my ancestors was in wars there's no doubt townsends grand papa was there aswell. eating flour raw
That picture of bread making reminds me of a video that I saw here or somewhere where they got a handful of volunteers to make bread just like in the picture. They start about 10 pm so it will be ready to sell at breakfast time. They spent hours kneading by hand (and foot). Then they let it rest and the workers caught a couple of hours of sleep. Then they are up at 3 or 4 and start baking. The bread was delicious and fresh. The workers were exhausted! In the past that could be their life long job! Ugh.
I think many of the recipes where really for the upper class, things like sugar and nutmeg and spices where things the normal people could probably not afford. Another thing is that selling cookbooks for normal folks was probably not a very good business model, since books are very expensive and require someone to be able to read. I wonder what the normal people would eat, but its probably less spices and more herbs, meats where probably more like rabbit and chicken, i think steak would be way too costly.
They might not know how to read, but they could be told or shown how to cook the recipe by someone. Also, spices were sometimes not as expensive as we might think they were. They also differed much by region as to what was expensive or not.
Man he puts on a great show. Just awesome. I wish I lived in the 18th century. I think I’d be more at home out in the woods by a campfire/kitchen fire and working the land to live. No tech, more freedom and liberty’s. Sure it was hard back then but thats what makes it so appealing.
You're a cool dude. My dream is to have a time machine and travel back to the 18th century. Something about it was fascinating since I was a kid. I credit a teacher in 5th grade who taught us a lot about that time and took us to local battlegrounds (we have a lot of them in my area in NC). Today I hike and still visit them to walk.
Actually, I’m watching you make the pancakes, they would have used butter muscovado a.k.a. brown sugar and you would whip that together with basically crushed up berries Bring that to a slow summer to reduce it to make A fine jam or jam then you would just serve it with any kind of cream, sweet cream and that’s exactly what they did in the 1800s and even the 1700s it’s a very simple thing to make very extremely simple Plus, they also used honey, which was not uncommon on pancakes as well
I don’t know about beating them first….my dad always made scrambled eggs by putting butter in the cast iron pan and then putting the eggs directly in the butter and mixing them in the pan….
I just watched "The English Version of the New England Pancake." You have mentioned several times that there was no leavening until after the Civil War, did people use Barm in Pancakes at the time or were they like Crepes until the advent of leavening?
I always wanted to try flip. Charles Dickens mentions it in several of his novels including Dombey and Son, Great Expectations, and Little Dorrit. I'm sure Mr Dickens had more than his share of flip in his time! Looks delicious.💜
This channel has most definitely contributed to my weight gain. I watch it to go to sleep, and I always have to stuff my face after watching these and then pass out😂
ill be honest I dont watch your videos by choice, i put on jerma streams to sleep and i wake up to you. i think a part of it is that i watch so many cooking videos but i still enjoy the videos none the less
Actually, if you were fortunate enough to survive childhood the life expectancy was only somewhat shorter than today. The biggest killers were smallpox, yellow fever (malaria), typhoid fever (from polluted water) and "childhood" diseases such as measles and whooping cough.
I mean, imagine a COOKING livestream covering COOKING! 🤯😲😮 HOW CRAZY!!!! They do more than just cooking. Calm down or find another channel. Or better yet, do your homesteading yourself and video it. 🙄🙄🙄🙄 Or just find another channel that covers what you want to watch and take your odious personality somewhere else.
Click the “live” tab on their channel. They have tons of livestreams on 18th century culture, fashion, science, etc. They also have dedicated craft and homestead videos. Check their playlists.
