Conceptually it reminds me of modern Cobb Salads. Large party salads where a base of greens is topped heavily with multicolored and strongly flavored ingredients like blue cheese, grilled chicken, tomatoes, seasoned croutons, bacon, boiled eggs, etc. Especially in the presentation focus, and making things look large. Cobb salads commonly are served on platters that can just barely hold them for the same effect as the heaping over a bowl described in the recipe in the video.

Interestingly, "green" salads are one of the older foods we know about thanks to them being literally noteworthy. One would only have some weeks each year to have a true green salad of fresh greens with other fresh vegetables and fruits before they had to be preserved or eaten, so people from ancient Romans to Frankish kings considered them special enough to mention even if there are not many elaborate recipes on the scale of Salamagundy here.

In defense of pirate Salamagundy: pirates liked to live above their means and play act rich men, and from what I've heard this was a sort of celebration food for them. Adding to that, a lot of pirate captains were or had been if not gentlemen associates of gentlemen and were aware of the place of grand salad, that also made a good impression on the crew as a colorful communal dish.

What a beautiful dish for something like Thanksgiving. I feel like it'd be great in the early fall too because so much of this is cold. Where I live, it's VERY HOT until October most years, meaning that a salad like this could actually be a bad idea due to the meats going off in the humid heat. But imagine this in the middle of a table with plenty of nice bread, or crackers, and maybe some switchel or cider! Maybe not grand in the way the folks back then would have thought, but grand enough for me!

This is similar to a "chef's salad." I've had this type of dish all my life so I don't think it's ever been forgotten but did get renamed and slightly modified. The biggest problem is the amount of time required to make it. Roughly 45 minutes to an hour of chopping and slicing and dicing and arranging of a wide variety of ingredients. I also add a couple of types of cheese. It can be an entire meal on its own but it pairs best with freshly baked bread and some butter.
@homesteadgal4143
@homesteadgal4143 2 месяца назад
It really is similar to a Chef's Salad, isn't it? Yes, it does take time to slice-n-dice each ingredients, but I always enjoy doing that since everything is so colorful. We eat salads most every day at lunch. The only item I never seem to use is pickles or the small gherkins -- a great idea! And I tend to use fresh grated beets (raw), not pickled beets. Our salad today was with roasted chicken and a side of freshly baked Jalapeno Cheddar Bread, a quick bread made from homegrown Jalapenos. Several years ago, during the early phase of the lockdown, I substituted celery with homegrown Mizuna using the stalks as the celery. Then fresh Mizuna and fresh lettuces from the garden were the greens. Worked so well!

This is obviously a dish for days when the women of the house weren't able to cook anything for supper, whether because it was just too hot to light the fire, or they were out of firewood, or the day had been too long and busy for them. I'm talking about the more prosaic version of the dish mentioned in the recipes, not the fancy one for banquets. Nowadays many people just order takeout on these kinds of days. In my experience, this kind of cold salad-and-pickles dish is often made for a quick lunch by people who avoid takeout and cook a lot of their own food. Pickled and leftover foods are brought out and everybody can assemble what they want out of it. Great way to use up leftovers as well as last year's pickled foods. Fascinating to see that people back then had the same issues - some days you're just too tired to cook, or it's too hot to turn on the stove, and using up leftovers and last year's canned goods was a priority.

I found salamagundy similar to a salad I prepare for larger gatherings, mostly family. 2-3 kinds of greens topped with several fresh veggies and ham with shredded cheese, hard boiled egg slices and the pickled veggies including pickled cucumbers and beets and any others I have and top it with a mound of fresh peas. Serve with your favorite dressing and it will provide a great course for multi course meals or it can be the whole meal. If you choose it to be the whole meal make more to fill you up. This is my own concoction, but like this salad from the 1800s, it seems the prerequisite to the modern day “Salad Bar”. Great video, as always! Would like more outdoor/ cabin projects please! Thanxz

Good one. I've made lots of various mixed chopped salads and love a good Cobb salad. So, this is right up my alley.

Interesting, as in the Atlantic Provinces of Canada, we have a pickled herring/onions called Solomon Gundy, which derives from this old English word you refer to. In Jamaica they have a smoked herring spread of same name.

Hearing you mention samphire is *great*. I never had it growing up, but in the last decade, one of the markets near us, for a short while, had samphire at their olive bar. I fell in love with it, and can totally understand why for hundreds, perhaps thousands of years, it's been a vegetable in areas that had salt marshes. Thanks!

Looks delicious! Growing up on a Pa. Dutch farm my foster home, My foster mother Anne made something like this, I can't remember what she called it but looks very much the same! I love it! So many different salads today I try to look and get a feel for the ingredients and sauces used, I think I am partial to bacon dressings and the like!

I hope you had fun making this, because it got me chuckling a few times. How many takes did it take to get all the "pickled this and pickled that" without Jon's tongue getting twisted into a knot? Bravo on producing a shot with no twists 😅 But seriously, this looks like an excellent summertime recipe for a picnic or cookout. I don't know if it could be transported any distance, but it would be beautiful on the patio table on the deck.

I actually cooked this back in high school! This was when the "Pirates of the caribbean" movies first came out and became really popular. I was a huge fan and wanted to know everything about pirates. Eventually I found a kid's book about pirates, full with history, recipes, crafts and so on at the bookstore. When we learned how to cook at school, the teachers let us bring our own recipes to try out, and this is what I brought. It ended up as a sort of chicken salad, very delicious. I need to look if I still have that book somewhere.

This is a chopped, chef's, or pub lunch salad, in particular a New England-ish style one that includes beets and carrots. I see pickled beets in salads somewhat here in the Midwest, but they're a bit more common over east and in the British isles.

It reminds me a bit of antipasto. The kinda I’ve seen in fancier restaurants. You usually put it together yourself but it’s all presented in individual plates to pick from.

TIL I’ve been eating salamagundy about once a month for the last decade. I tend to make a lot of quick pickles and then have to get rid of them all at once in a fridge clean out before they go off, this is a great way to do it. It’s almost like an early salad Niçoise

I work at a wholesale meat market in a majority African American city in the south that serves to a mostly underprivileged people and the most popular thing we sell is sliced pickled soused *hog head*. You’ll sometimes find teeth in it. while not common ive heard of people eating turtles, squirrels, racoons, opossums… the socio-economic situation of these people i believe has caused it to preserve Native American/slave culinary traditions in cooking. I willing to bet this occurs in other unprivileged parts of the world.

I've heard of Salamagundy but didn't know what went into it. Almost sounds like a forerunner to today's Chef's Salad with meats, veggies and egg yolks minus the cheese! Or a version of Charcuterie with different meats, pickles and again cheeses! I'm surprised they didn't add cubes of cheeses as well since they made their own homemade cheeses back then. I have a cookbook with recipes from the 1700s, the Williamsburg Cookbook and the Mystic Seaport Cookbook that has all old receipts what they called recipes back then and because my forebears have been here since 1648, 1721 and 1738 on both sides of my family and fought in the Revolutionary War, three of them generals and in the Civil War. per family history and genealogists and from the Pennsylvania Dutch on my father's side and Yankee New England on my mother's side both famous for their cooking/baking. So thanks for the clarification.
