Mrs Crocombe is making traditional mincemeat in the Victorian kitchens of Audley End House. She’s made enough to last the whole Christmas season and will be using it to make some mince pies today. If you would like to make some yourself, storing it in sterilised jars will make it last a very long time indeed!
INGREDIENTS
450g Ox Tongue
900g Raisins
900g Minced Apples
900g Suet (you can use shortening as a substitute)
1.1kg Currants
1.1kg Caster Sugar
450g Candied Peel
2 Lemons
Salt
2 Grated Nutmegs
1 tbsp Ginger
1tsp Pounded Mace
300ml Sherry (or Madeira)
300ml Brandy
METHOD
Combine the ox tongue, suet, raisins, currants, apples, candied peel, the rind and juice of boiled lemons, sugar, two pinches of salt, ginger, mace, nutmeg, sherry and brandy into a large container or bowl. Give it a good mix until all of the ingredients are combined. You can store your mincemeat in sterilised jars, or create some mince pies just like Mrs Crocombe.

@robertcorbell1006 7 лет назад

I enjoyed the curry episode as a big fan of the classic adventure stories set in and the actual history of the British Raj and British South Africa, as well as the outpost cities in China and Tunisia among other places, to say nothing of Australia and New Zealand and their history. Maybe an "abroad" episode with a few Sikh actors for the sepoys or some Zulus and an early "fusion dish" like pav bhaji (curried tomato soup with rolls Bombay-style) or another Anglo-Indian or Anglo-African dish from that setting. Something that would make a history buff and food lover like myself and others proud. :)

@Moriartart 6 лет назад

It’s like a more lemony lemon if that makes sense

@mandygreen9134 5 лет назад

Bubbles yields more juice? I don't understand, the lemon will have the same amount of juice it contains regardless of boiling it or not lemons don't magically have more juice just because you boiled them. It's the same amount either way. Now if it's used to loosen up more juice that's trapped to get more out then.

My mum's mum (she died before I was born), had trained as a cook in a large country house before she married my granddad. Mum said Nan always made her mincemeat (only for Christmas, of course) with meat. Nan was born in about 1884, in Suffolk. The legend is she worked for the Astor family, but I'm not sure that's true.

@Holyfiremolotov 6 лет назад

Back in medieval times where the mince pie comes from, they didn't really have desserts. Even pastry was discarded as it was just used to house and cook the filling and was often just made of flour and water. Mixing sweet and savoury was really common and it has evolved and what the Victorian's made was an evolution of the original mince pie. Sweetness came courtesy of honey or dried fruits as sugar was not widely available back in medieval times. Along with spices such as saffron and ginger, dried fruits such as figs and dates were the preserve of the wealthy as they had to be imported into the country. Liberally using spices in your food was one way to show your peers just how much money you had. Mince pies have just slowly evolved to include no meat, but they still include suet which is beef or mutton fat. It's nothing to do with poor people mixing scraps, since the poor would not be able to afford fruits, spices, honey etc. Mince pies were definitely something reserved for the wealthy. There may of been variations of the mince pie made by the poorer folk, but they'd be very unlikely to have fruit in them save for maybe some old apples and definitely no spices.

@waylin8585 6 лет назад

Holyfiremolotov it used to human mince meat pies

@KromeDragon 5 лет назад

Oh yes I've heard that since they didn't have resealable bags plastic bowls to store cooked meat and fruits they were put into pies. That's innovation! For the winter you could put the pies into a non insulated room as a freezer and just take one out and bake it, scoop out the meat

@PILOSOPAUL 7 лет назад

Peasants like mixing up (and recycling) scrap food, I guess (see the original recipes for pastas and pizzas, they used to be made out of scrap) here in our country (and a particular recipe in our city) we have a peculiar meatloaf made of ground beef or pork, raisins, carrots, hard boiled quail eggs, and beaten up chicken eggs

@ZimVader-0017 7 лет назад

We have a still well loved stew that is made using left overs called "Salcocho". The slaves and servants would take any food item left over from the master's last night's dinner and put it in the pot, that's why one stew can be different from another stew even if they have the same name.

@helloiamem 7 лет назад

The earliest pies were actually predominantly made with meat. It's the other way around than what you said. In actuality someone saw meat pies and decided to have a crack at it with fruit and see how they went. when we talk about 'pie' in Australia we are almost always talking about meat pies, anything else is referred to as 'Apple pie' or... huh... I can't think of another popular fruit pie in Australia, we just don't have them. Our pies have meat, and sometimes cheese, and it's a sin that you don't realise how amazing that is. I had a cheesy pie for lunch today, yum num

@helloiamem 7 лет назад

Although I should amend my other comment; our meat pies don't have lemon and candied shit and sugar in them, they're 100 percent savoury. Just beef mince and gravy, sometimes with bacon, sometimes with cheese.

A lot of people are adding bacon to desserts here in America. I think most people would be confused, but there's definitely a vocal minority. The saltiness plays well with sweet flavors, but I don't go out of my way to eat it. Emmymadeinjapan (RU-vidr) made beef fudge and it looked really good. I haven't tried it myself.

So, do "fashionable" folk just leave the meat _out_ of the recipe, or do they _replace_ it with extra fruit or cheese or vegetables or something?

Good question! More 'modern' recipes would leave out the meat and perhaps add extra fruit, like prunes. You can find out more here: goo.gl/MaK2v2

I´m from germany and have been to Scotland for half a year. There I started to love Mince pies. As I was watching this video I thought "What the hell is the ox tongue doing in this recipe?!" until I gathered, that that is where the name "mince" pies comes from :D That´s why I love this channel. You just learn a lot about history.

I had no idea that minced meat was meat...with fruit and sugar 😱

Claire Scott in victorian times was super common to mix sweet and savory, meat and fruit were often together in various recipes

Cerulean Sealpup when you just want to mention "vegans" lol I think the only person *trying* to throw shade or be relevant is you. The only meat pies i know today are shepherd pies & like she said they aren't as popular anymore.

Cerulean Sealpup meat doesn’t go in modern mince pies. I would know, I’m English.

Everyone is talking about separating the meat and fruit into separate pies but I wanna try it with both!

I read not long ago about Mince pies actually having meat in them. Then I saw a show where they did put meat in it and everyone was surprised. This is a great video because it shows more then what that other show did.
