What I especially like about you two is that you make no extra noise with your utensils and stuff, no clattering of pots and pans, but measured and meaningful movements and placements. It makes the watching possible for me (as very sound sensitive) without turning off the sound. Thank you and great way of working, with respect for your things. Love it.

The quality of your editing and camera angles for just 2 people, combined with the frequency you release videos, is just nuts. It is very obvious ya'll have put a ton of time into studying what makes a good video, regardless of actual content. I personally enjoy eating steak while watching you handle moose meat, imagining what it might taste like :D.

I've watched several of your blogs and they are out standing. God has blessed you beyond words, beautiful marriage, good health, beautiful surroundings, give God praise his love endures forever.I'm a organic gardener I only use worm castings & compost.Since my hip replacement I garden out of raised beds.About three years ago I had my neighbor build a 3 x 13 foot raised bed that will last for years.I make my own sausage I use pork instead of elk you are blessed.I started raising chickens almost four months ago.I only have five hens no rooster I don't live in the country.I keep them in a 13' x 10' enclosure all covered completely with chicken wire.The hens are range chickens so they can fly they haven't had their wings clipped.I'll enjoy watching more of your blogs.Put your faith and trust in Jesus he will never let you down.

Here's a tip I've seen you made hashbrowns a couple of times if you lay a thick piece of cheesecloth crossed your cutting board when you grind your potatoes you can just twist it and get the water out right into a bowl without dying your hands from all the great heritage variety potatoes that you guys cook up

Tip for cutting onions keep a soaking rag next the the cutting board. The acid in the onions is attracted to water so if some water source other than your eyes are present, it should make it easier:) love you videos

@arthurcortright2186 3 года назад

We were taught in chef school to keep the onions in water prior to cutting. The water has to evaporate before the acid in the onion ... No fumes
