Cathy collects carrots and cabbage from the root cellar and Peter gets a pork jowl from the elevated food cache and water from the creek. They make a pea soup and Peter gives a wee bit of history about the frugal habits of our ancestors.
Recipe:
About 2 cups of dried split peas boiled in about 4 cups of water until soft. You can add more water or less water, to taste. Then mush the peas.
Saute the onions with the pork jowls (substitute bacon or smoked ham) and add to the pot.
Chop about 4 carrots and a small cabbage and add to the pot.
Simmer until carrots are cooked.
Season with salt and pepper.

In my childhood it was not called being frugal, it was called being poor. It was not a badge of shame for everyone in that same time shared the same way of life. We wasted nothing but we wanted for little. Life was good.

@TheWoodlandEscape Год назад

We grew up relatively poor but, we never seemed to lack for anything.

@heru-deshet359 Год назад

My blessed grandmother was born and raised on a farm. She lived close to poverty until he late 30s and never wasted anything be it food, clothing, etc. She was already in her mid 60s when I used to visit her as a child (she passed at 103). I'm 69 now and remember how she always made the amazing dinners cooked over an open fire on in a hearth. We always looked forward to visiting her on Sundays. I was born and raised in the city, so visiting the country was like going back in time for me. Miss her and her cooking every day.

@Crosley3251 Год назад

I cherished every second I spent with my Gramma. We never saw her without her apron on. There is a little story tittled " The Apron " I will try to find it and post it here.

@dowdawg Год назад

@@Crosley3251 My grandmas sister always had a twist roll of backer (as she called it) in her apron and could still rip a piece of it with her teeth to chew. The days of sitting listening to stories and being fed rock candy have long been gone. But I still can remember so vividly sitting smelling the rock candy, backer and watching her spit in the garbage can. She was born in 1888 in Tennessee…

@TheWoodlandEscape Год назад

My Grandma Kelly was 3 months short of 100. Always in a apron except on Sunday morning at church. She was always cooking , knitting or working in the garden.

People lived frugally in Athens County Ohio in the late 18th century Ohio USA. The wife of Thomas Ewing took her pot with a hole in it to the local blacksmith. The blacksmith wired and brazed a coin onto the hole in the pot that the Mom brought to the blacksmith for repair which stopped the pot from leaking. People didn't just throw thing away, they were repaired and were continued to be used. This is frugality. Your soup looks YUM !!

I live in the UK, our cottage was built in 1805, the year of the Battle of Trafalgar, we have a small wood at the back of the cottage part of which was used as a midden, over the years I've found many interesting items whilst digging, most recently I found part of a very old toilet, made by 'Thomas Crapper', now we know where the term came from, love your videos.

@TheWoodlandEscape Год назад

Can’t beat living in a wee bit of history. As to Mr. Crapper, no one would have given his name a second thought prior to the toilet but, I’ll bet now that there are some of his descendants having a tough time in the school yard.

@jamesrussell8896 Год назад

We make something called "scrapel" I have never thought of throwing in the tail, but after the pig is butchered, all of the bones are boiled till the bits of meat fall off. Cornmeal is then cooked in the broth with the bits of meat, bones having been removed of course. Once cooled in bread pans it is cooled, sliced, and fried. Imagine a pork flavored hash brown made from corn. Very tasty with some kettle syrup and very filling. My neighbor even throws the kidneys in his, I'll have to ask him about the tail.

@TheWoodlandEscape Год назад

Oh my, my mouth is watering at the idea. That is something I’m definitely going to try! Thanks for sharing.

@victortuten4399 Год назад

Justine and Ron have a great channel! My wife and I rarely miss it. We enjoy their eat and chat as well. Frugality at times has been an issue here in the house. I am frugal...very frugal, and while we are not a day away from a store, we are at least 30 minutes away from any Walmart. Further than that from a Lowe's or Home Depot. As a result I try to keep spares of anything important. Pressure switch for the well etc.. My wife being brought up differently (from California) sees it as clutter. To her if we don't use it every so often or if it has set for a year and not been moved we don't need it. She used to grab it and toss it but 20 years of living so far away from an Urban center has taught her to ask before she tosses anything. Even when the submersible pump went out I pulled out the pipe to replace it...I don't mind paying a fair price for experience and training, but if I can do the work myself I will! For the record, I do NOT repair my pots or resole our shoes...but I DO have the tools to repair the shoes....

@TheWoodlandEscape Год назад

Your not just frugal, you’re resourceful Victor … both good traits . Justine and Ronnie are indeed wonderful people, we are hoping to make the trek to see them someday.

@larryreese6146 Год назад

Yes, Peter, I have eaten pigs tail, pigs feet, hogs head souse, and everything except the squeal. I've never found anything I couldn't eat, if properly cooked except for one thing, cows tongue. I once found three of them on a platter. I'll have to admit the sight wasn't that appetizing but I sat down and set to. It was tender enough and the taste wasn't unpleasant but the texture is very much like a person's own tongue and I began to imagine I was hurting it. Then I began to wonder if I was tasting it or it was tasting me. Side note: deer horns sawn off for the appropriate size, drilled and polished, make very fine and attractive buttons.

@TheWoodlandEscape Год назад

My first laugh of the day, Larry, thank you. We ate tongue a lot growing up on the farm as it was an affordable meal and also liver once a week. I have made buttons from deer antlers and they are quite pretty.

I really miss having a root cellar to keep my veggies. Just a tip, if you're interested. Save the roots of the cabbage inside the root cellar, and plant them in Spring. My grandmother did, to produce second-growth heads, which she cut into cross-cuts on top, so they would produce seeds. It doesn't always work with every variety of cabbages, but "waste not, want not".

Great tip and thanks for sharing, I’ll be giving that a try.

Grandpa born in 1897 held to many of the older ways but did change with the times also. Was retired when I knew him as a youngster. One skill he had was putting up food stores…apples in large bins packed in leaves (Winesap apples in their own leaves) kept well fall to spring…hams cured and hanging…etc One of the most interesting and guarded and most requested recipes was brined pork which was all the neck shoulder and back bones ears snoot feet hocks odd bits and the TAIL packed in a crock with pickling spice salt sugar and strong vinegar. Lasted from butchering until used up. Was eaten by boiling the brined meat and bone until tender thicken the gravy and serve over buckwheat pancakes. The tail was not prized or special but was good, the bones were soft and edible with the hide and meat… was savory and ever so mildly sweet and spicy. Old time way, never got the recipe in time it was abandoned to modern conveniences and fell to a novelty.

Peter, many years ago I helped my Dad make pigs' feet a few times, I would hold the feet while he split the foot to let the marrow come out, I guess. He would put the feet in aluminum pie pans and pour gelatin over the feet and put them out in the cold garage for the gelatin to thicken. They were delicious. The hocks I get from the store in glass bottles are all fat. Nice video, I enjoyed watching it and learning something interesting about the past, thanks again.

A lot of the food we eat today was once poor folks food. A good example is dressing. Hardly anyone serves a Christmas dinner without dressing. Like you said in those times people couldn't afford to throw anything away if it could still be used. If bread got too hard to eat, they would crumble it up and pour broth over it to soften it up. then after it soaked for a while, it could be fluffed up with a fork and served as a side dish at the next meal.

Also My Mother used "Mendit's" brand patches to fix small holes in things like a dish pan. They were small little metal patches to patch holes with. She never threw away anything as she was raised during the Great Depression and that was the way people lived back them. She was born in 1908 and lived for 93 years and I was raised with the values from back then. She also saved buttons from a shirt when it was completely worn out to use on the next one.

First your soup looks absolutely yummy. We live in a disposable society now and it hits me to see so much tossed away. My grandparents lived through the Great Depression and was very creative on making things and bartering. I have never been one to toss anything out that can be reused and repurposed. I have had same winter coats for many years and won’t toss any clothing until it falls off. As things wear out they become barn clothing for chores. I watched my grandpa straighten nails out to reuse. He had a piece of train rail and wound use to pound the nails out. I still have the rail section today. I reuse nails and screws even today. Thank you for the great history story.

@TheWoodlandEscape Год назад

Soup looks tastey..! Some info for you... Pigs don't mind and actually thrive in cold weather environments. My son raises a few pigs in Eastern Montana (The land of ice and snow) with winter Temps reaching -40F for weeks on end. They have a small shelter lined with hay and live outside year round with no issues. Alberta has wild pigs (both wild boar and domestics) running loose on the prairies and in the forests living quite well in the winter environment. There is also a bounty out on them. As long as pigs have a short amount of time to acclimate, there is no problem with pigs and cold winter weather. Thanks for the video...

The Homestead is looking fantastic...very homey indeed with the hearty aroma of pork & pea soup. Loved the highlight on frugality... "need taught him wit".

Thanks Dan. Your spot on about the aroma, I could smell it cooking from my blacksmith shop.

Hello there my friend,my mom used to put pig tails in turnip greens to season them for my dad mostly but I've ate them but it was a long time ago, they're not too bad mostly fat. Until next time take care my friend. The soup looks pretty darn good my friend

@TheWoodlandEscape Год назад

The soup was indeed tasty. Funny how we all had to eat what our dads liked, lol.

Wow makes me want to go straight home and cook. I love pickled pork hocks when I can find them. Really enjoyed wee bit of history. Loved the little water keg.

Same kind of food I love to cook and eat. I cure and smoke my own bacon, hocks, legs, sausages. Good eating! I did buy some BBQed pig tails once, and the dogs refused to eat them.

Good to know about the pig tails, Ed. So much for the old saying, you can eat every th but the squeal.

Hi Peter, I really enjoyed the presentation! Great choice for a delicious hearty meal. I enjoy the same with smoked ham from time to time. Perfect for this time of the year, I just may have a go at some this evening. Take care see ya on the next.

@ashleyanderson2859 Год назад

Appreciate your efforts and dedication! Looks delicious. Make do or do without! I know from visiting colonial Williamsburg and Jamestown many of the old abandoned wells were also used as trash pits. A lot of the items found were the household items you spoke of. Unfortunately today we are a through away society. I believe in the not so distant future we will have to return to a more frugal way of life. Thanks again and keep your powder dry!

@paddyosborne99 Год назад

We lived and still live frugally in Co. Wicklow Ireland. My Mother used the cheeks and tongue of thr pigs head.She fried them with cabbage and we ate them with boiled potatoes. The remainder of thr head was boiled for hours on thr open fire and the flesh and gelatine was mixed with boiled potatoes and vegetables like carrots and parsnips. It made a great warm feed. The killing and salting of the pig was a big important day in our district. Nothing went to waste. Anyway all the bèst from Paddy in Ireland.

@ashleyanderson2859 Год назад

@@paddyosborne99 yes, those that have been raised with the mindset and traditions of the past still live a frugal life. Have a great weekend!

@TheWoodlandEscape Год назад

Your prediction of the future is certainly trending that way and I find that pretty darned disturbing. Watch yer top knot!

@stevemeasles1143 Год назад

Don’t remember pig tail but have eaten ox tail and pig ears. We were rural and frugal , so pig tail was a definite possibility. Thanks for your channel, it’s a joy to watch.

@TheWoodlandEscape Год назад

Thanks Steve for your flattering compliment.

@marcelchrusciel8468 Год назад

great channel I subscribe to you for 3 months you can draw infinite inspiration from you. I live in Poland near Warsaw and I am interested in history from the 17th and 18th centuries when it comes to American history, especially Jamestown, the mayflower ship and the character of Thomas Jeferson, thanks to your pattern, I have already built a blacksmith shop

@TheWoodlandEscape Год назад

Hello Marcel, We certainly appreciate your interest and support. Congratulations on your blacksmith shop. I too find the history of North American history in that era, fasci.

@TheWoodlandEscape Год назад

@marieleopold1625 Год назад

Looks DEE-LISH !!! Methinks the 'labor' involved 4 a meal and the 'appreciation' for each ingredient used, would make the meal taste 'that much more' savory! Thanks 4 this 'homey' vid Catherine and Peter! I oft reflect on my ancestors from France who settled on; I'lle d-Orléans, I am trying 2 locate the exact tract of land settled and have found out through guides that anyone who purchases land is restricted from digging on their own property until inspected (archeologists). In other words 'Nary lift a shovel or you'll B in trouble.' The island is a wealth of history stored and 'treated like' one large 'midden'. Pigs have a lot to offer in the way of meat...perhaps it is one of the reasons they like to disguise themselves in mud and look less 'appealing' to us! LOL! Health and God Bless! :)

@TheWoodlandEscape Год назад

You never cease to amaze and amuse me Marie. I so look forward to your comments. It never crossed my mind that the hog was attempting to disgust us. Doesn’t seem to be working for him!

Pete, have you ever thought about a video where you highlight how much more comfortable common, 18th Century workman's clothing is to the clothing of today?

That’s a great idea, because they certainly are far more comfortable.

@markbir7979 Год назад

That soup looked delicious Peter. Here in South Carolina we eat hog jowels collard greens & black eyed peas on New Year's day. The greens represent dollar bills the black eyed peas represent silver coins that we hope for in the new year. I think we just eat the hog jowels because we like them. Just a wee bit of southern history. We have some jowels in the freezer now. Hmmmm... God bless you & kathy.

@TheWoodlandEscape Год назад

That sounds like a wonderful tradition … I love seasonal family traditions! Got a few jowels froze up as well.

@charleswilliams9647 Год назад

awesome! fantastic looking soup/chowder.

@jayejaycurry5485 Год назад

You do pea soup a little differently than we do. Jowls we use for bacon and eggs. For pea soup we prefer smoked ham hocks, or ham if we had that. While we cooked some carrot with the split green peas, we never used cabbage. I'm wondering how that tastes. Someday I might give it a go.

@TheWoodlandEscape Год назад

We also cook it with ham. I highly recommend a wee bit of cabbage, gives it a great flavor .
