A silly mistake did I make. In one of the quotes, I said “miffing” when it should be “missing”. Of course it’s because I read those 18th century s’s as f’s. I did a whole video on that letter in old fonts, yet here we are 😂
At least you didn't miff that one!
On a serious note, love your work! Always makes my morning :)
I just thought you suddenly developed a lisp! ;)
@@LindseyLouWho 😂
Ahhh yes, the infamous s's that look life f's
@@TastingHistory I, too, get piffed off when old fonts trip me up.
Tasting History might be one of the few channels Ill pause my recent binge of Star Trek for!
What a good idea. Time to start a binge after this video
@@patricktorres4226 I just got Paramount+ through a family member so I *finally* get to watch The Lower Decks, Discovery, Picard, and Brave New Worlds.
Im gonna watch them in that exact order and Im on season two of Discovery. Lower Decks was a rip roaring good time. 🐨
Ive got my criticisms of Discovery but I think its pretty true to what Trek is supposed to mean to me according to how I interpret Roddenberry's vision. Just hope it doesnt sour itself in later seasons.
After that its time for the obligatory full series rewatch. I gotta ask whos your favorite captain? Heres a dead giveaway for mine. ⚾️
Qapla!
Exactly. Except I don't binge Star Trek.
@@beowulfsrevenge4369 Qapla'!
I LOVE when you talk about Jane Austen!!!
"Ditto."
In the past, we made a batch of rout cakes for an informal tea party. Not being a fan of the floral flavors, we changed the recipe using the zest from lemons. Also, instead of raisins, we used dried cranberries that were soaked for a while in the brandy before adding to the flour mix. This version was greatly appreciated and we've made it on occasion. We have made scones with the cranberries and lemon zest before so we already knew that this flavor combination would go well in the rout cakes.
Ooh, lemon sounds like a good version!
I just wanted to say, I couldn't help but read this in Max's "reading post-medieval English texts" voice. It fits so perfectly.
The cranberries sound good compared to currants.
It's a good day when Max Miller posts
Max, I saw you comment that these are very like rock cakes. Rock cakes/rock buns were the very first thing I was taught to make in cookery class in High School in Somerset in the UK - in 1971 😂
These videos with old and mostly forgotten foods and recipes are my favorite episodes. I still enjoy the episodes that do stuff like try to guess what ancient Egyptians possibly ate etc. But I just find it much more interesting when it's actual historical foods and recipes.
So regency era high school or frat house parties were called 'routs', lol. So fun to hear some things never really change more than their names
“No conversation, cards, no music”? Great party!
My all time favorite 1 star book review was on Pride and Prejudice:
"Just a bunch of people going to each other's houses"
-mr carlton b morgan of the United Kingdom
I...I hate the fact that he's right...
These look exactly the same as some small cakes my mum used to make quite often except without the alcohol and rose water. She called them rock cakes so maybe the word has changed a little bit over time.
They’re very similar to rock cakes!
I ate a rock cake just before watching this video! :)
These videos are always perfect for my lunch breaks in between college classes when I need I break. They carried me through my first year of college in the dining hall. Thank you so much!!
THE WAY I PAUSED STUDYING FOR MY EXAM TOMORROW 🥳 I LOVE THIS CHANNEL
Breaks are fine and can be beneficial,
But videos can wait. The exam won't.
If you need to study, don't let the distractions keep you from your future.
Education is important.
Cheers ✌️
Good luck in your intellectual endeavors!
Max you give me something to look forward to every tuesday.
as an australian, this video was posted at 1 am for me.... definitely says something about my sleep schedule, considering im watching this at 1:22....
Right there with you. In Saipan.
I live in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania and it’s 11am here. Almost lunchtime.
Oh boy! What an era! Looks like a yummy treat!
Oh, man. These parties sound like my worst nightmare. I'll just make the cakes myself and be unfashionable in my own house.
Max does the best commercials
@@stargazer5073 he does! I watch all of them every time 🙂❤️ I really want to try the coffee
Oh this already sounds delicious! I'm watching and I already know I HAVE to make it one day.
Sounds like the floral and alcohol flavours really help set off the currants and the butteriness!
Missing the Ditto plushie instead of the flabébé ;)
Ive got no experience with florals as a flavor, but Ive always wanted to give them a shot. This does indeed seem like a great way to start! Ive been needing an excuse to pick up baking again and this just might be it.
I get paid tomorrow actually I thought it was still monday, dang night shift confuses me. I am 100% gonna make these for me and my family!! Thanks so much for brightening every tuesday and the occasional friday!🎉❤🎉
I love all the quotes directly from Emma! I'm going to make these cakes and have an Austen Appreciation party sometime. Thanks for the awesome video and for bringing so much joy to this recipe, Max! 🌷🌻🌹🌸🌼🌺💛
Party like it's 1806 😂 Just love your rhetoric Max. I would have loved to experienced just 1 day in those times especially with the current times. Happy Tuesday all!
Thank you 😊
This is exactly what I needed today. Thank you Max!
Woohoo! Caught it at 48 seconds. I love this channel so much.
so, party menu in the paper. Pictures of food on social media. Have we changed?? Don't think so! LOL
When studying English Literature in college my friend who sat next to me would always pronounce with her broad Hampshire (UK) accent the author's name as "General Sin". 😊
WAKE UP BABE TASTING HISTORY POSTED!
I wish you’d do a short video on how you do your research for them (and where you get your ideas)
2:46 Effortless transition as always max! You never dissapoint! Huge fan! Hearth please ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I drive a lot for work, so I’m glad that these are the kind of videos that you don’t really need to watch but listen to, but I watch them anyways, don’t tell anybody
You always make My day max! Tuesdays are awesome thanks to you! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Reminds me of the cakes in Leland's Aradia, Gospel of the Witches, except it uses olive oil..and yes, I'll read anything if it has a recipe or food description in it. I had a Wicca friend who used try to make things like this for Halloween. The ones made with Marsala weren't too bad.
Missed opportunity to have a Ditto plushie in the background...
😂😂
But aside from being a Pokémon, what is a ditto? Is it a unit of measurement, or is she saying “the same quantity as the other thing”?
@@TeaReesa26 So, when I heard it first, I thought it meant a unit of measurement, but I suppose it just means "like quantity."
This is so cool. I love Jane Austen’s works and I always wanted to try the food in her stories 🥰
That satirical art plate at 8:05 is wild, she's just got them right out in the open 😂
The Biscuit book looks like something I'd enjoy - thanks!
As great as max uploading is anyone starting a count down till cookbook number 2
Rock cakes in England.
My mum didn't put alcohol in - that I knew of.
As kids we called them cowpats.
The currants were the flies
The cowpats didn't last long once put in a tin and placed on a high shelf.
Chairs and sitting on older brothers shoulders soon emptied the tin. 😂
A rout could be a devastating military victory of sorts. After all, it depends on which side you're talking about.
I would love a video on recommendations of books on food history! You do so much research for these videos you must have gathered a ton of expertise on finding good sources in the field.
As always, wonderful video!
I remember a cakey/cookie my mother used to make that had currants soaked in sherry.
Interesting episode, thank you. I grew up on scones & rock cakes usually being kept in a biscuit tin for you to have a rummel about in if you were peckish. Must say I prefer plump raisins over currants in them as the latter can be gritty or go hard once baked. Though a quick pre-soak in rum or sherry can fill out their wrinkly appearance. The rout cakes live in a little scone adjacent family with Fat Rascals, Splits, the Yorkshire Quarters & the best of the bunch Fattie Cutties from Orkney. 😋 (Wonder if any of them make it into your Biscuit book?)
That's not "miffing," it's "missing." They call the letter a "long s."
Omg I can’t believe I did that! Especially since I did a whole video on exactly that 😂
Wow, managed to catch this exactly at 11!
Eyyy my country back on the channel!
Yayy, just got my coffee! Can’t wait to watch 🎉❤☕️
The only "biscuit" in medieval recipes is "Digby's fine cakes". To get totally overwhelmed, look up "WELSH CAKES". every Welsh cook has a variation on Welsh cakes.
Awesome as always thanks ❤ love all your videos they are both interesting and entertaining!
9:39 I wonder if that’s where the term ‘fashionably late’ came from.
Kinda reminds me of Rock cakes, just with floral stuff added...
Watching now and I'm thinking that too, names are similar can't be a coincidence
Tuesday lunch break and Tasting History!
Don’t know about where you are in California, but currants are far cheaper here in Canada than raisins. A good reason to make rout cakes.
Nice segue into the coffee ad.
🍪 These are good. Everyone that I shared them with also loved trying them. 👍
Rout cakes make a literary appearance in the second book of Patrick O'Brian's Aubrey-Maturin series. In fact the series is replete with interesting dishes.
You can use the leftover rose/orange water in your steam iron to make your clothes smell good.
Ow you captured me attention with Jane Austin. If a rout cake has enough brandy it must be acceptable.
I guess "rock cakes" is the modern evolution. Lost the florals and sweet wine, added a bunch of raising agents.
Lean on the alcohol, no truer words for a rout.
Were the currants dried Zante currants, which are more like grapes, or dried red currants, which were actual currants? I'm partial to red ones but have no idea what grew in England and was used in these recipes back then.
So much fun to watch your videos. Cindy 😊
ngl the rout sounds like a social gathering specifically designed to make me miserable. purposefully crowded to the point of constantly elbowing people? nowhere to sit? tons of people none of whom know each other? pickpockets??? starts past 6pm? count me out
Odd question but what were "Removes" in that Guildhall General Bill of Fare? Obviously all fowl but where were they served in the context of the meal?
Max, pausing the video on least time lol, but would you please do a segment on your least favorite foods? You seem to love EVERYTHING and are so open to trying new things. Would you share foods/drinks you don’t like pleeeeze? ❤
Could you substitute Grand Marnier for the brandy and orange water?
I bet those would taste good with the clotted cream
so far it sounds like a fancy pound cake, with the symmetrical ingredients.
Wow, talk about the idle rich and their peccadillos...
Max's ad transitions are getting good.
Wow, that Guild Hall menu by itself would keep your channel busy for a long, long time.
Flabébé spotted 😊
Your the best man keep the great vids up
I'm guessing the Floette in the background is a transformed Ditto. No way you missed that opportunity 😅
🎼🎵tonight we're gonna party like it's 1799.🎶
Reminds me of Hardee's cinnamon raisin biscuits.
From Northanger Abbey
"There is nothing I would not do for those who are really my friends. I have no notion of loving people by halves, it is not my nature"
Take my hand, dally dally
As we dance the night away, dally dally
The fine silk and demure cut of fabric
Shall draw the eye and raise a look, dally dally
The new to be wed drink tea and eat small cakes, dally dally
The sensitive sensible ones take up their pens, dally, dally
And for all the chirp of decent crowds
Found in Austen's words, dally dally
One step, becomes two dally dally
And my reserved love to you dally dally
Let the crumbs of our dalliance stay true, dally dally
At tonight's great ball
Hey dally dally dally
White soup and rout cakes! Bleaugh... I would have starved..
Gotta watch out for the next Kaiser Chiefs single, I Predict A Rout.
Floette ❤
Forgot to add Singing Hinnys to the list of scone/biscuit adjacent treats below.
cant wait for tasting history in 400 years when max grand grand grand grand grand child covers the famous diddy parties of 2000s
Should have included a ditto plush for all the dittos in the recipe.
EARLY! Love your content max! You're the Best 😊😊😊😊
It's a good day when you find the video 20 minutes after it posted.
I dropped a book of Christmas carols on my foot. It hurt like the dickens!
Not the Diddy of the british isles
Max, please create an afternoon tea party.
I love how hard Max is trying to pretend that British food before decolonisation wasn't absolutely terrible. There's a reason we dont eat these foods anymore: they were bad.
Considering alcohol doesn't "bake off" at such a short time, you might also get a little buzzed after 24 of them 😅
While on the topic of Regency Britain, has Max ever prepared White Soup?
From the thumbnail thought these looked like rock cakes, which you went on to mention. Which then made me think I don't think I've had a rock cake in about forty years. Which is a terrible shame
I was hoping that he used a ditto plushy to pour the "ditto ingredients"
You should do a video on chicken kiev. It's so delicious 😋
“Ditto!”
Looks to be similar to a scone recipe, just presented in a different way.
Holy hardtack I've never been this early on one of ur vids! Hi Max!!! :)
Sounds like the start of a US scone like from a coffee shop
But dittos won't be in season for months!
