I started this journey with the insistence of my sister, who is also an influencer/gamer/cook. I started cooking at an early age, always wanting to know what my grandmother was doing in the kitchen. She would let me help with cooking while I was standing on the kitchen chair, while she gave instructions and told stories. I am trying to do that, but it has been over 40 years, and some of those stories faded into memory. My grandparents owned a cattle farm in the middle of the state of Missouri, and we always had food around. I learned to preserve what was grown, and from birth, I knew where food came from. I even had a pet cow named Molly! Now it is my turn to teach my grandchildren something. They do not live near me now, so I have my UA-cam channel to try to reach them, and the rest of our grandchildren. There is more to life in this world, and I hope I can show a little piece of it.
Beef Shank Burgundy Stew
It is getting closer to winter time, when the heavier foods become more popular. Stews and soups with fresh made bread. Pumpkin squash and turkey everything. This is my favorite time of the year.

Herbed Soup - Getting ready for cold and flu season

I have been struggling with this recipe for a while now. I do want to know what is in this. We all have that one dish that we obsess over at a restaurant, but I really do not want to pay another 50 dollars a person to eat it when I want to. I'm close. I know I'm close, but could use some help with this one. @jordan_the_stallion8

With winter approaching, we are going to prepare for when the power goes out. Canned meals are wonderful for storing food that does not need to be heated or cooked. These are also great for to go lunches. I do have a discord with some of the recipes that I have. My sister also has recipes there as well if you want to join. discord.gg/NvCcRV2Z
Ambrosia Salad and Pink Fluff
Переглядів 74Місяць тому
Pink fluff, also known as Pink Lady Salad or Pink Stuff, is a sweet, cold Southern dessert salad that's often served at family gatherings and other events. Ambrosia Salad is also a Southern and Midwestern dish that has stood the test of time. I do not know when it was created, but it is a family favorite in most Southern and Midwestern families.
Gourmet Crispy Treats

The older I get, the more nostalgic I become. We used to make all sorts of baked goods when I was a teenager. Back in the day, all these ingredients would be 5 dollars and I would be able to go to the store after school to grab them. Yes, we had the Krispy Treats in stores at that time and they were ok, but this brought that treat to a while new level.

Here are just 2 suggestions of what to do with these pears. I got these for free from a neighbor that has a tree, but doesn't eat many during the year. He makes preserves with them and gives them out for Christmas. I have my ideas for Christmas, but we are going to need to find Bambi for one of them. That....will be a later episode if we get 1, or 2, or 5 :)

Caution: the beef is cooked med-rare to rare and there is blood. If this makes you queasy, please do not watch the end. This is the ONLY way to cook this in my opinion. This cut of beef became popular in the 1950's by a butcher working for @SafewayInc and has been a staple recipe ever since. Where I moved to, it is not a popular cut of beef, but I'm hoping to change that. I do not cook like thi...

Nice one
Thank you
I made these! So good! More like a ranch style bean, which I love!
I am so glad you like it! This is a family favorite, especially at family functions.
Move to fast. Not close enough. I had to stop watching
Thank you for the feedback. If I go again, I will try to go a little slower.
OMG you had me at that tea set D: its so pretty
IKR! Like I've said...i've spent some money here LOL

I'm going to be trying the ice cream in a couple of weeks, thanks ❤
Let me know what you think. Like I said, its not like regular ice-cream, but it helps the cravings a bit.
Thanks for the great simple fast recipe! Noe go get cooled off and hydrated, you deserve it! Cheers!
Thank you. I dont know about any one else, but i'm ready to see the leaves turn!
HI! I'M A NEW SUBSCRIBER! GREAT VIDEO ON SWEET POTATOE VINES! HOW ABOUT A PEAR SALSA? GOD BLESS YOU! HUGS FROM MASSACHUSETTS. ENJOY LABOR DAY WEEKEND!
Welcome! Pear salsa sounds wonderful! I may do that when I get some tomatoes and make a batch of regular and pear.
Two requests one of the requests is for the pears, pear ice cream and if you can't have dairy that's fine the hubby can't either, he can have a little pear so I thought ice cream might be good. Second request something I have heard of a lot but never been able to try because there's no place that has it out here. Pickled watermelon rind. Have you made it, and is it good?
Can do....and pickled watermelon tast just like crunchy cucumbers, just a different texture. I've made them and they are fab. Will find a recipe.
Informative post! Thanks!
Thank you 🙂
Claire's birthday was on the 18th.❤️

nope 😂
NICE
Thank you 😁
I started growing sweet potato leaves for the leaves not the tubers. It will be nice to buy /get more vines from you for me to grow more sweet potato leaves please ❤
Thank you. I do not have any vines at the moment. I have other veggies planted there this year. Depending on where you are, I might be able to refer you to Baker Creek Seed Company, where the do have sweet potatoes on sale in the fall.
Looks delicious!
thank you 🧡
You mentioned a 1969 German cook book. Can you tell us the name of it?
The cookbook I found at an antique store is called "Recipes: The cooking of Germany" Foods of the world by Time Life Books.
@@grandmarebel Thank you so much!
@@drstorm you are very welcome!
Great work but hard work and time consuming. It is very tasty which makes me eat more. God blessings. The near nature my food the easier the healthier and less processing . I trade health for good taste meaning health is first micro biome second and taste last. Thanks for sharing this amazing recipe with us.
Thank you. It is well worth it.
also, if you can get a hold of JJ, see if he can use half your worm colony for his garden next year. He's going fallow for this year, but conditioning the soil.
if this trend of 100F weeks are gonna be a thing this season, I may resort to having salads for meal replacements. I'll be melted
What is the seasoning you used on the catfish and the oven temperature and for how long? Would like to try some here even if not fresh caught. ❤️
Its called Adobo all purpose seasoning made by Goya. I can find it in the Mexican section of the grocery store in my area, but if you can not, amazon has it.
Mine were prettier
I remember. But at least they are coming back into fashion.
Looks delicious! My Armenian friends have something very similar, i just can't remember the name right now.
Would love to know the name 🙂
@@grandmarebel It's called Dolma and there is a fried version called piroshki.
@@harsimran1 Nice! Thank you.

Don't try to take a picture of the eclipse with your phone it will fry it. Use the eclipse glasses over the lens first.
Already have the glasses for my cameras.

OMG when you cheered about the grapes i so glad i was alone XDE i cheered so loud lol
I was so tickled...still reeling about it!
i have been thinking about getting little window pots and starting a little window garden here at the apartment sense i been watching your videos
Go for it. Nothing like window sill herbs. You can even get one of those Aero Gardens and it provides its own light. I have one in my living room and I'm starting peppers in it. 💕
I had to Subscribe.. You're family, LOL!!
She's been here since the beginning LOL
Grandmother's canner lid hit the ceiling and left an impression when she was canning green beans. There was glass and beans everywhere.
Yep...pressure canning is not as safe as water bathing, but if done right, is quicker. That, and there are more safety features since then. Pressure canning didn't become popular until after WW2.
Your pupadoo in the background made this super cute! I've got much bigger dogs but they still have the exact same reactions when I'm cooking, especially meat lol! You made a really great point, too, that the cost of the ingredients together costs about the same as buying the same amount of pre-canned soups, but when you make it at home it's significantly healthier. It's always good to know what you're putting in your body, regardless of if we need to follow a special diet. So in my eyes, it's worth it to make it all by scratch, even when it's going to take longer.
Thank you. Aila is 3 months old right now and will be about 60-80lbs when full grown. She is not going to stay small for long.
Perfect video, sweet lady! I finally made it to the end lol. Again, I LOVE that you made this video, it's SO important that people don't forget the simple methods that kept - and still keep in some parts of the world - alive and thriving for new generations to grow strong. If the world really gets as bad as it's been heading towards, then we all might be forced to resort back to those simple methods anyway. People like you, my dear, are the exact ones that are going to help those clueless government-dependent people (dare I say fools? lol) get back on their feet when we all own nothing and are equally suffering.
You are EXACTLY right: water bath canning is nothing more than slow-build pressure canning. It's literally the same thing but at a more gradual build. And for THAT reason, it's also safer than pressure canning. (that's not to say that pressure canning can't be safe if you do it right; anything can be dangerous if you do it wrong).
For the water level, most rural dwellers in Europe and Asia who can (again, only water bath canning happens outside the US) put the water only up to the neck of the jar. I'm not sure what that method is called, but they successfully can like that all the time. But everyone is free to put the water at the level they feel more comfortable with.
I want to add that the Amish sometimes add about a teaspoon of vinegar (theirs are usually around 9%, though, unlike the ones sold in stores which are 3% to 6%) to cut down their waterbath canning times.
forgot about vinegar. Usually it is home made when it is that high. I can find 5% in the stores, but nothing higher. I do ferment my own.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE you for this. Pressure canning never worked out for me because when I started it, I lived at an elevation where the pressure canner I got - a gift from my favorite aunt because I couldn't afford one myself - could handle the elevation. I gave up for awhile, then I started watching wonderful Heidi and Rain Country, and I did my own research, and I learned exactly what you said: the US is the ONLY country where it is illegal to waterbath everything, and it all comes down to money. People would not buy pressure canners when literally every pioneer survived and thrived just fine on waterbath canning up until pressure canners were put in stores, so the USDA/FDA said it was "dangerous" to waterbath low-acid foods. The same with re-using lids, they said it was "dangerous", but if there is nothing wrong with the lid, then it is perfectly safe and cans just as well as most brand-new lids. So I learned to waterbath everything. And I have no regrets. Why "fix" something when it was never broken? If you do it right and don't skip the important steps, anyone can safely can any type of food.
Thank you! I've been water bathing since (almost) birth. This is the way my mom did it, and grandma did it. No one could afford a PC. I also reuse the lids, and store bought jars. Love pickle jars. you can can in them over and over and over with the same lid. WB and PC!
Did you say Ph strips? Use to test food?
She's referring to the acidity of foods. Like citrus foods are obviously higher acids, and veggies and meat are low to no acid. You don't need pH strips for that, you just need to understand which foods are acidic. Anything with tomatoes, lemons, and vinegar in it is an acidic food. BUT you don't need to pressure can only the low-acid foods.
Yes I did. They can be found on Amazon, or temp. This is where I typically purchase them from.
Can you water bath Homemade soups?
yes you can! You can waterbath everything.
Yes. If they have meat in them, it would be 3 hours. If it is something like squash soup, what I do is omit the cream, then wb for 1 hour.
Can you water bath spaghetti with a meat sauce?
Yes, but it's advised to cook the meat first because otherwise meat will clump together. It will cook, but you will end up with a single clump of meat. It's more a convenience to cook it first.
I know people who do it. but because of the acidity in the sauce, it will not be 3 hours. I would do 25min for pints, or 35 for quarts.
might need to invest in a puppy cam while you're doodling around in the kitchen for a bit.
Already looking for one 😁
I kept mine 8n tomato baskets and grew right out of them
and that worked? I know someone who is trying buckets and they get nothing. What do you fertalize with?
I think the chemical you’re thinking of is Ubiquinol, an active form of COQ10. Pine needles are truly a gift. Thanks for all this fabulous information!!!
Thank you. I truly could not remember the name.
Just pin the bay leaf to the onion with the. Cloves and cook as usual
Thank you
Excellent
Thank you ❤
Getting ready to harvest the sweet potatoes greens for this year. I think I love them more than the tubers.
So do I. I find I get more food from the greens than the tubers. I treat them as a bonus
Where did you find the dried elderberry? Can’t find it in grocery stores.
The Norns on 190 has it.
I live in CT. Finally found some at a local herb shop. None at big box stores.
@@christinaanderson4246 I AM SO SORRY! you and my manager have the same name
Do you find that by removing the leaves you are reducing the ability of the plant to make good tubers. I grow them more for the tubers than the leaves
I actually grow them for the leaves. I can propagate the vines so that I can have continuous plants and I get more food with the vines than I get with the tubers. It is all about what you want.
