I love that fact you use clips of Dame Maggie Smith. I can always see a little of Professer McConnell for Harry Potter.😅

Looking forward to your next video!!! Hope all is going well for you. Keep Calm and Carry On! 😊

Ah! I love love love pickled onions!!!! ❤❤❤

A tip (which I’m sure you’ve figured out!): unless you’re using it to make scramble, “dry egg” cooks and is used essentially the same as vegan “egg replacer” powder. Use that. :)

Love your videos - hope you post again soon x

You want the dough to be wetter with whole grain in particular. It will help a lot in the end.

EVOO is meant for salads.

For iron you need liver, red meat, egg yolks...

Giving up coffee is enough of an achievement!

You could have used chestnuts which grow wild in Britain...but then I suppose they're difficult to find in Oz

Salt also helps gluten develop, important for wholemeal flour which has less gluten-developing ability than white flour.

Mediterranean food in Britain didn't become popular until the 70s thanks to cheap air travel. It was American food that became popular in the 50s and 60s.

I hope you have fully recovered from the dreaded vegetable, and we will see you again soon.

You coffee savings cost is inaccurate. You neglected to deduct the cost of your replacements- the tea and the coffee substitute.

Quirky fun - love your work and character (hope that doesnt sound creepy). I was the opposite of you as a child i LOVED peas. The trick for me as a child was keeping them on the fork. My Dad used to recite some funny saying about peas along this line " I eat my peas with a knife and honey, makes them taste real funny but it keeps them on the knife" OF COURSE my Mum would just shake her head for the implication that i should be eating from the knife ! Good days They met at the start of WW2. She was a trainee nurse and he was in the British army. They didnt like to talk about it tho.

I've tried to make quick rolls, but the middle is always sticky😢

Hi, i will be in your city during most of November. Id love to meet up for a sandwich. I also think that Vomitrocious may be my new favourite word. Thanks

Thank you for tying your hair back. I couldn’t concentrate while waiting for your hair to catch fire or get caught in the milk. Lol.

loving your series! please please please AS YOU ARE ABLE do continue making vids <3

So glad I found this channel! I collect vintage cookbooks, but I rarely get around to actually cooking from them. Love this :)

You should try adding a little dried ginger and perhaps a very small amount of sugar to that soup - so good!

So glad I found you!!! I haven't eaten out or gotten takeaway in over 2.5 years (I drove across the USA to see my kiddo), so I'm always all about cooking once and eating for a week or more - it does get boring, so having something that is easily frozen is a big plus!!

Where are you? waiting so patiently for another mealtime...lolol

I'd be interested in knowing what kind of salad dressing you make with sauerkraut juice. Please do tell! We eat sauerkraut a few times a month & we always drain off the juice in the sink.

I did subscribe on my tablet but you disappeared. Now I will use this.

I more than like your tutorials. I live in the United States. During the war, my grandmother had to save fat drippings for making lye soap. I very much concur with your other viewer's comments. So very much is to be said. I, for one, believe that this topic should go on and be widespread. Many, MANY thanks.

I remember mum making mock tuna in the 70s and 80s. As a kid, I did not like it. It's definitely an acquired taste. I do remember it had tomato in. I'm 90 minutes south of the Adelaide CBD, on the Fleurieu Peninsula/South Coast. One leek in my local Coles, today, is $2.90 each. My son and I both want to go to The Queen Vic market but have to wait until November when we'll be there for the 21 Pilots concert at Rod Laver Arena.

Hope you did not toss the pea soup. Add potato, carrot, chick peas, roast pumpkin. (Flavour so much stronger...) Maybe a tiny bit of bacon or veg substitute. If you are trying to stick to rationing misery, you might only get one onion in a year, so can't add another. So lovely and warming! Oh - and barley! Great for that caramelising meat flavour - that vague umami flavour. I would love some of that soup now. But it is cold and I don't want to get out of bed. I could microwave something for 2 minutes, but my feet are voting to stay in bed... Just imagine having to go up on the roof, and fire watch, for four hours!

Yes, your back! I have enjoyed all your videos (some several times) and appreciate the time, effort, and fun you include. Thank you! ❤ NOW, when’s the next video? 😉 lol

I don't care for turnips, but I'm a huge lover of parsnips. I would replace it with that, if available. Parsnips aren't very popular in the U.S., mostly b/c I don't think they're very well known. I discovered them in England, roasted with carrots, potatoes and beef chuck roast for Sunday dinner. WOW! The sweetest veggie I've ever tasted. LOVE your channel. Your content is very educational, clever and entertaining!

Jake, I’m loving your videos - they’ve been fun :) My mom is a baker, and tries lots of different recipes - there is a type that rises slowly in a colder setting - I’m curious if that may have had an effect on - I think, the second loaf…although your note at the end reminded me that you had changed the flours used… These have been a lot of fun! And I like that you included a price breakdown, it’s interesting to see.. cheers! :)

Late to finding you and your wonderful series and challenge. I'd recommend wartime kitchen and garden. The stars are Ruth Mott and Harry Dodson who actually lived through the war

Have you watched this: The Wartime Kitchen and Garden

I am loving your videos. Very engaging and informative.

also sweety, nutella is made of BUT paste! so i would think if one had some nuts handy, you could mush then up and add to it

Guess I am far closer to being eighty than you, but I have always been frugal, as taught by my parents who survived and thrived through two World Wars. I eat a whole food plant-based diet, and yes until recently, I still had my mother's Ration Books, which were sadly stolen. I well remember going shopping with my mother as a child. In addition to taking along her shopping bags, we could walk to the store. She always took her housekeeping purse, and a hand made leather wallet containing her Ration Books. She shopped far more frequently than I do now. National Dried Milk, came in tall cans with blue printing on the side. I was born after the war, but my family had an small but highly productive garden with fruit bushes and trees, as well as veggies, and a chicken run at the bottom, for eggs. It produced enough food to share with neighbours and friends. We also had a greenhouse. Our daily salads took less than five minutes to go from garden to table, and there was a herb garden outside the kitchen window.

Oh Jakey Jakey Jake….A gill (is pronounced Jill) & is a 1/4 of a pint 😊

Conventionally grown Leeks are currently 2.49 USD in my local supermarket, it’s a bit more if you want organic (those are bundled so it’s not a straight comparison. According to the chart I got from the local farm a few years ago leeks will start being in season next month, so I’d expect the price to go down a bit as the weather cools off.

Loving the videos so much. I have experimented a couple of times in the past with rationing. I very much enjoy the make do and mend mentality when it comes to clothing too. 😹 not go to lie, I'm about 10 videos in now and I still giggle every time your subtitles say you're living off WW2 russians. I can't help it.

All we are saying, is give peas a chance!

Were there 80s style massive freezers? No! But there were certainly ice boxes. I loved your rant about people being too 'purist'. The aim is to recreate a modern version of wartime food and have fun. I really enjoyed this video, and your style!

Sounds like Dwarf Battle Bread (Discworld) xxx

Cheese with beans on toast - are you sure you aren’t British? 😂😂

Sending a super thanks because I am super thankful I found your delightful, hilarious channel! (And also to bribe you into uploading again soon 😜)

Thanks!

My Mum is 80 years old and she made a delicious apple crumble. Plus, through her, I inherited a hand carved rolling pin made from hardwood that my paternal Grandpa made.

Garlic and onions - in traditional Italian cooking, you cook with one or the other. Never both. Maybe that’s why garlic is hardly mentioned as onions were preferred 🤷🏻‍♀️
