Hard to make but easy to eat. Watch us eat this here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mOAvt-nQE9M.html Also, Ron is lactose intolerant and he refuses to accept it...
@@rebeccarorie313 You could use vanilla. Chocolate ice cream was more common than vanilla in this period but vanilla ice cream was a thing among the wealthy. Vanilla beans are still to this day expensive. Thomas Jefferson in the 18th century recorded down a vanilla ice cream recipet and was said to have been obsessed with ice cream in general.
@@Lulu-il6mr when did they bring up feminism? Saying that both being a wife and being alive are the hardest things they've done isn't "bringing in feminist opinions" tf is wrong with ppl
@@Lulu-il6mr LMAO what "Being a wife is the hardest thing I've ever done" is something you could hear in a 50s cartoon. And of course they were SUPER into feminism back then.
I am laughing so HARD right now!!!! The music..YOUR face, Justine!!!! Too funny!!!! And then Ron doesnt disappoint...and rips a big one!!! This made my night!!!!! Keep 'em coming!!!!!
I thought I heard that frightful noise of an 18th century fart at the end. Was that priceless or what ? He old 18th century way of letting it rip.....men can be worse than the horses......
Used to make ice cream by hand as a kid. The trick I used to not end up getting sore wrists was that I would put the container in my backpack and go for a couple mile hike. By the time you get back, it's all done and ready to eat, and no sore arms!
I believe those large blocks of ice were cut and harvested from frozen lakes in the winter. They were then stored underground through the summer until a purchase was made.
I don’t think that a lot of the pioneer men realized how difficult and painstaking many of the pioneer women’s chores really were! As a young child in the 1950’s and early 1960’s we didn’t have very many modern conveniences and I remember how hard a lot of the jobs were!😳 My grandmother used to tell my sister and me about her life as a child and that was even worse. We should be so thankful for the conveniences we have now.
On the contrary. Men knew exactly how hard the work was. They saw their mothers and other female people do it all their lives. That’s part of the reason why marriage was pushed early on. Both people toiled to make it every day. Add child rearing and it ups the ante. Big families made for more hands but ultimately more ‘women’s’s work’.
I am a Sri Lankan and I have read lots of books about those years who lived with very difficulties. But I think those days were good than now. Our ancient people had hard times with living but their lives are very simple and beautiful with the nature. Nature has blessed them with giving healthy foods and so much. They didn't destroy the nature. They loved it. But nowadays because of our limit less living neediest we destroy everything's. Not only nature with our bonds with loved ones. So far now nature not blessing us.. we are now experiencing it.
Hahahahha I notice that , they said screw it’s we showed them how folks use to do but now we need some more ice and I’m not about to do that all over again !! 😂 let’s use some ice cubes!
Her pauses and look on her face is priceless! So happy to have found this channel! Don't ever change your genius stories, and good, clean storylines! Love them !
That expression on Justine after Ron walked off….. was Priceless….I know how she feels the ole vacuum for your birthday gift. I really laughed out loud.
I got an ice chest for camping for an anniversary one year, lol. Yes, being a wife (or a husband, I imagine) is one of the hardest things you will ever do. Blessings, TeresaSue
I got a food processor from one boyfriend. I didn't want it when we broke up I got rid of it. Then my current boyfriend got me the SAME EXACT FOOD PROCESSOR. Like dude🙄
Your expressions were priceless! I laughed through the whole video! I received a vacuum cleaner for a wedding present from my husband. He was very pleased with himself. I think I had the same expression as yours! Thanks and keep ‘em coming. 😂😍!
while I do enjoy these and seeing how food was made over 100 years ago it makes it all the clearer how FAR we have come. We can buy ice cream for very little money and have machines that do all the work for us which in contrast is so rad.
@@Shenanigan1720 You should make fruit smoothies instead for cold dessert treats. Very yummy and MUCH healthier for you. They can also be so filling that it can be considered a meal and will keep you full for many hours. If you have a good blender, it can be thrown together so fast. My typical smoothie has a bunch of frozen berries (either just raspberries, or a mix of raspberries, blackberries, and either blueberries or strawberries), frozen sliced banana, either frozen yogurt or regular yogurt (unflavored or if that isn’t available, use vanilla), some vegan protein powder, sometimes an avocado if I have one (and/or some apple), some chia seeds and flax seeds (super duper healthy for us, and tasteless), sometimes a bit of honey or Agave (an all natural vegan substitute for honey, and healthier for you), and sometimes a bit of Naked brand “Berry Blast” fruit juice (or a comparable brand/flavor) if needed to make it more liquid and less stiff (if you’re using regular yogurt instead of frozen yogurt, you might be able to go without adding the juice). I’ve even added some frozen kale some times, and I’m NOT a fan of kale at all - you simply can’t taste it when consumed this way though and it’s so good for us. The main ingredients are simply the frozen berries, banana, frozen or regular yogurt, and the fruit juice if you want to make it as simple and quick as possible, but you can see by adding extra stuff that you can truly make it into a filling and mega healthy meal. I never eat ice cream. I’m 47 now and I’ve never been overweight, or had and health issues from my diet (but I also don’t eat meat).
OH MY GOSH! I laughed so hard im crying! This was by far your funniest episode yet! Justine you should be on TV you are HILLARIOUS! the faces, the sad music, laying on the ground hahahaha all of it was screaming funny!
It was exceptional, the looks and timing of delivery! I've told her before she's going to be a household name from her acting. The different expression's from one to another those aren't easy to do. She could do a play no problem!
The look she gave Ron reminded me of the time a good fishing buddy of mine gave his wife a new Tackle Box for their Anniversary.. She didn't fish, but the super-human effort on her part to look pleased was noteworthy...
@@cremebrulee4759 and this is why y'all marriages will never work. It's not always about one side or the other. She prob forced the smile because she wanted him to feel appreciated despite not liking it. She can just hint for something better next time rather than getting in a buge argument over a dumb gift. So freaking materialistic.
@@epic7224 Why is she not supposed to expect him to clue into her desires if she is always accommodating his and that of any family? That's exactly why marriages were mostly drudgery back in those days and left women miserable. Nothing kills the sexual relationship faster than feeling exhausted . That leads to an unhappy home and then men want out. I know I've seen it. Women have always been expected to be the one to tolerate that kind of personal usery . In today's world women are expected to work outside the home and men need to smarten up and figure out that the women need something more from life than the drudgery of meeting everyone else's needs. Yes, I'm married, well over fifty years and worked outside my home also, but my husband figured that out very quickly. No one wants to go anywhere when the relationship is balanced. A gift for a special occasion should be something that gives pleasure, not more work. I don't give him tools and a job to do for his birthday. Acknowledge that both are working and need something more than work to be happy,
This is fascinating. I volunteer at my local historical society, and last weekend was our annual ice cream social event. I got to docent for the first time since I started volunteering back in 2020, and both before and during the event I got to learn a lot about one of our exhibits: a hand-cranked ice cream freezer (undated). Having done some research on how important the 1846 invention of the hand-cranked ice cream freezer made ice-cream making much more accessible and less labor intensive for American households, I now find myself looking for information on how ice cream was made before the onset of hand-cranked ice cream freezer. So far, this video here has been one of THE BEST visual explanations as to how incredibly difficult making ice cream used to be. Thank you so much for making this!!!
Isn’t it amazing that 200 years has realized we would never survive without niceties versus necessities. Making a convenient snack we have now compared to a pleasure you got maybe once in your lifetime then is a sobering thought.
Well, in 75 years I have had home made ice cream once. That was when my hosts made all the preparations and the guests were “allowed” to take turns cranking!
@@reginaromsey that’s so great! My mother in law got one of those mixing buckets one year 😂 you just snap it on the top and it churns itself. I’m not a sweets person but it made some great recipes!
@Spirit love your spirit! Did dishes to an extent as a kid, only because I wasn’t allowed to touch the dish washer or the laundry (because they were easy jobs, instead I was on base board duty 😭) but I washed dishes by hand for almost 6 years…. But I also don’t have kids so I wanted the torture to end! Also I would LOVE a flame grill in the house, used a fine 1967 hot point stove for 5 years and lemme tell you… you learn your cook top and when it breaks, you FEEL it!! Drop some recipes you do over a flame for me, I love a good chargrille texture! 💕
I had the worst week. Hell it’s not even over. I sat down with a glass of wine and choose to watch one of my favorite wind down channels. I laughed the whole time! You guys are great. Thank you for this! Well done!
Jen you can get through this week and eventually it'll just be a memory. You can smash this just like how you've smashed every obstacle in your past to get to where you are now.
I wasn't expecting ice creaming making to be so grueling and melancholy until I saw Justine churn ice cream in sadness. The music had my rolling lol. It was worth the pain Justine. I hope you enjoyed the fruits of your hard labor
I’ve only had homemade ice cream once but it was such a treat! Brings back such good memories! My ex’s family would make it often growing up and I felt so special they shared that experience with me. My ex is gone now, died almost 4 years ago now, so remembering the taste of that ice cream is both comforting and bittersweet ❤
You, as always, well done! Nuances: 1) you need to break the ice wrapped up so that the fragments do not scatter around the house, because money has been spent on it. And also eye protection. 2) after use, put in the cellar the ice and store there, although it is problematic with salt - it melts. And so the ice in the cellar in wooden insulated tubs is like a refrigerator; 3) When Ron carried a block of ice, it was not necessary to carry it in his hands - he could get frostbite. He had to tie it in a knot and carry it like a bag; 4) it is necessary to beat the ice with a large wooden hammer, it is more efficient, and it does not crumble so finely.
Back in my country when I was very little we didn’t have refrigerators in every house, so most convenient stores would sell blocks of ice. They would break the ice with a wooden bat while keeping it in a sack.
Is Ron ever good with that hammer! He managed to chisel that ice down to what looks like molded ice cubes! I truly loved this episode!! You two are amazing! 👏 the dramatics were epic!
Justine reminds me of a scene in Gone with the Wind where Scarlet O'Hara vowed to God that she will never go hungry again. A moment of joy tasting the ice cream, a product of hours of labor. Let's hope that Ron doesn't ask Justine to make ice cream again until he can invent a contraption to automate it.
That talk about returning it had me like “awwww.” 🥺 I have never been this emotionally invested in one of your videos. It was like a movie! I laughed. I cried. I give it two 👍🏻 (ok. I didn’t actually cry but I was emotionally invested.) I’m happy that the ice cream was made. 🥹 You are a trooper for following through with this. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 🍨
Yup. Puts it in perspective when I watch stuff like this and realize that it was way harder back before technology got to where it is today. I'm not even talking smart phones, just stuff we take for granted like walking machines.
@@ThinWhiteAxe agreed. Like building a house back then. All done by hand and no chain saws for example. Just the amount of manual labor that goes into it. It amazes me.
@@jenniferjackson9022 even just daily chores like washing dishes was so much more difficult when you didn't have running water. I've done some of that myself while on camping trips where I had to walk to a central location on the campground to fetch water for washing dishes. It just makes everyday existence that much more annoying.
@@ThinWhiteAxe but I guess if that's all you've ever known, it doesn't seem like it's hard work. They never had running water to compare it to. Or electric tools for that matter. It was just the way it was.
Truly amazing that Ron was able to take that lowly hammer to that large block of ice, and beat that into almost perfectly molded round cubes, similar to what we find in the modern day in a big chest in clear bags at certain stores!!! 🙄🤭🤣🤣🤣
We put our block of ice 🧊 in a gunnysack and beat it with the flathead of an axe. Mom made it like a cooked custard, using our fresh cow cream, fresh eggs and brown sugar with a touch of vanilla. The trick is to separate the eggs and beat the egg whites separately. The boys churned it by hand. You alternate ice and rock salt and cover with a moist gunnysack. Adding salt and ice frequently.
@@demoniclily1892 Shipped from colder climates, kept cool usually by keeping in cellars. If you've seen Frozen, the intro scene where all the buff men are sawing cubes of ice, that's what they're doing - getting it ready to be sent off to warmer places that need it.
When I was a child in the 1950's my friends family owned a wooden barrel hand crank ice cream maker and they got us kids to do the work of cranking it. Lol Of course they bought crushed ice from the store.
@@EarlyAmerican I would put a stick or your wooden spoon through the handle and twist that way holding the stick with both hands. How long did it take?
So did my Parents too. My husband and I also used to make homemade ice cream with our wooden churn. It tasted so good on a hot day. The kids used argue over who could crank the churn.
This made me laugh so hard I cried! The facial expressions Justine! So awesome! What they did for their men is just absolutely unheard of today. Loads of respect for that era!
This is hilarious! My family had a tradition of making ice cream from scratch for holiday meals and it was always left up to me. Even with an electric ice cream maker I feel your pain 😂
Brings back memories of making ice cream at my great-grandparent's house. They had a wooden bucket and a hand crank. The kids took turns turning the crank. No air conditioning then in most of the houses, so it was a real treat. They actually still used an ice box instead of a fridge, and had an outhouse in the early 1960s.
Yep my husband was born in 1977 and they had an outhouse when he was little. People tend to forget that rural areas took longer to get modern conveniences. Shoot we just were able to get internet last year. And it’s only a limited amount and alot of people I know still can’t get it.this is in the US.
this may be one of my favorite videos from you both,, Justine you were such a drama queen and Ron's fart at the end,, you two are a riot,, this was a fun video for sure. Oh and I think every husband has given their wife a present that made us scream inside our heads and wondering what on earth was he thinking giving me this moments, then smile on the outside because we know how tickled they get when they think they did good ;) 23 years and he still gives me those moments lol
I remember making ice cream like this when I was younger at a American Girl doll event that I went to with my friend. We had to make the ice cream just like that and it was a lot of hard work and time consuming, Tedious too. But the reward is that homemade ice cream tastes really good once you're done. So guess it pays off.
It’s not difficult to make with a modern ice cream maker. Even the kind that have ice and a motor are still a pain. Now you neither need ice nor manual labor; other than combining the ingredients.
sooo so interesting, and witty! i moved to dubai 6 months ago (from Somerset in England) and i love seeing all the nature that surrounds your home 😊 it reminds me of home! i appreciate all the time that goes into your videos (planning, script, camera angles, editing etc etc) and i also appreciate seeing all the green! xx
That look on Justine's face when Ron handed her the barrel was a true Kodak Moment. It was almost like "If looks could kill", lol. I couldn't stop laughing. At least Alfred understands.
I remember washing clothes in the first washing machine for our family, my hand got caught in the ringer while trying to feed one garment at a time to ring out the water, the only way to get your hand out was to reverse the process, it was bone crushing the first time, but to go through it a second time in reverse was crazy, my laundry days ended and the task was given to my oldest sister, the same thing happened to her, dangerous machine, lol. We still talk about it till this day with our children, this was in the early 60's.
Watching this makes me know how easy we have it today. By just going to the store if one wants ice cream. Great video, also I learned how ice cream was made over 200 years ago.
This is one of my comfort yt channels, love u guys! I'm from Ecuador and here we have a different traditional way of making ice cream. It's called ''Helado de Paila'' and even though it may be ''old fashion'' people here still make it that way, it's delicious and very refreshing.
I imagine the recipe arrived in the United States with the French immigrants, the word Posset is French anyway, it's originally refered to a hot drink then became a recipe for a dessert and and ice cream, which both involve dairy & lemon juice, or sometimes it's called sorbet, and I remember trying this ice cream in Southern France in childhood, they ironically sell it in a lemon shaped plastic container 😅 it wasn't my favourite though.
I was worried this was going to go side ways like when I brought home a vacume cleanner on my anniversity, it was no ones present we just needed a vacume cleanner. She got earrings, I dont remember what she got me, but I would have been happy with a vacume cleaner Alfred had that stop talking and make the carrot ice cream look on his face.
Ron was so excited about his gift for you and he was truly crestfallen to think he might have to return it 😍 that's true love, making ice cream ☺ loved this video x
I bought the "Ben and Jerry's" cookbook and made every flavor. But, that was in 1988. For what Justine went through she better get a two bedroom addition. Loved the video!!!
The face Justinine makes after Ron says, “how long do we wait…like five minutes” is priceless😂 I was laughing through the entire video. Y’all are hilarious!
I can't even Imagine how hot it must get for you in a cabin with a fire going inside in the summer months.. Your a good woman for sure.. I guess they did not have to use salt back then? I was cracking up when Ron lifted his behind to let off gas lol so funny he seemed so pleased with himself.. Ice cream looked so good..
@@RTCPhotoWork Salt is absolutely necessary. You will never get ice cream if you don't use salt in the ice bath. The solute induces freezing point depression in the solvent (water) and lowers the temperature of the brine bath to below the freezing point of pure water (and cream) such that the cream can be frozen. Without the salt the temperature of the ice will remain at 0C and never be able to freeze the cream.
The funniest video you guys have made. I never want to eat ice cream again. I use to have an ice cream maker that needed the handle turned. I thought it would be more fun than having an electric one. Duh.. I made it a few times but it wasn't oh so fun!lol
I remember the first time I tried homemade ice cream at my friend's house when I was in elementary school. We all took turns cranking it for a long time and it was still soupy, but it was so worth it :)
I made it with my grandmother when I was in elementary school back in the early 1980s. Chocolate chip ice cream. It did take forever, but it was by far the best tasting ice cream I’ve had in my entire life to this day, and I will never forget it. There truly is something special about the homemade stuff!
From what I’ve heard, ice cream was considered mostly a wintertime treat in this era, because that’s when you could easily get snow and ice for making it. I recall reading about a very mild winter in early 19th c Germany where everyone was sad because there was no opportunity for ice cream that year.
Justine, I like how you talked to Alfred, ha,ha, this whole skit was PRICELESS and CLASSIC. Ron is so clueless as how you make it and he thinks you can shove that huge block of ice in that tiny space lolol I had to watch this three times This deserves an academy award.
This was a great episode! I laughed out loud the whole time! Justine you looked so bored. Poor Alfred didn't know what to say! Yep Ron I saw you on the bench lifting for that fart! Reminds me of all my boys!!
This is that episode of Adventure Time when Finn and Jake get caught in a giant web made by big spiders and the male spider brought a cool sword home to his mate as a gift to make up for a spat they had, that was clearly for him, but he claimed he wanted to mount it about the fireplace to cuddle.
the skit was so... idk... but it was amazing xD i know that exaaact feeling omg... i cringed... like when someone buys a gift for you in order to get something FROM you. like when someone buys you an art notebook and expects a free commissiom 😅
Justine your expressions were so funny! And the music, I had such a good laugh! I think we've all been there in some point in our lives. Speaking of ice cream, I thought the squid ink from Japan was one of the weirder flavors, but I was told there was a meat flavored one. It's cool you were born there!
I couldn't imagine having to make ice cream this way, even the hand crank churn would be better! Ron looked really satisfied, i was waiting for him to ask for more!
Anniversary gift to himself. Lol I can see my husband doing the same. I just stumbled across your channel and cannot stop watching. Thank you for clean, not creepy content.
Man... looking back at this video... this video prompted me to eventually buy my own Ice Cream bucket when I saw it on sale the other day. Thanks for the inspiration. I've made some Ice cream of my own already and it's been great so far.
This was so funny, The Whole video from the look on Justine’s face when Ron gave her the gift to kneeling on the grass, laying down on the grass while churning the ice cream 😂😂😂 And I thought I had problems, last night I just sat down and my husband said he felt like having ice cream sundae I said I just bought some when I went food shopping, he said can you make it for me, you put just the right amount of whipped cream and sprinkles… UGH…. The women back in the day must have all had carpel tunnel
Carpal tunnel but also you could get tendonitis, and cubital tunnel which is just like carpal tunnel but is where the nerves go through another smaller tunnel on the right bottom corner of the wrist (Left hand) and left bottom corner of the wrist (Right Hand) the pinky and fore finger are affected.
This is some of the most unique larping I've ever seen. However, it's interesting. I think the detail is really good and the storyline isn't bad, even a little funny at times. I will admit the acting is a tad stiff in the beginning but I think I'd definitely keep watching these. Thank you for your hard work and dedication
Hours to make and seconds to eat! 😆 I got a Baskin Robin's pink kiddie ice cream maker as a kid. I loved that thing, the crank sure is a wonderful design 😆 doing that by wrist is crazy! I love lemon blueberry ice-cream! Pretty much this receipt but with a drizzle of blueberry jam. So tasty! Happy anniversary to you guys too!
Oh Justine. You sacrificed for your beloved. Back then, ice cream was truly a luxury. I can't imagine the labor extended to make two goblets of the creamy goodness. I've made the hand cranked before, but your contraption doesn't even have a paddle inside to stir it around. Happy Anniversary, despite having to work for it!
I highly appreciate your work,because it was hard,i mean,all ice cream recipes and cozy atmosphere are not easy to show as real... Thank you! We love your vlogs❣
