A trick with the cornstarch; put the cornstarch in a small bowl, add some of the strawberry juice from the pot, stir until it's about the consistency of ketchup, then pour it back into the pot of strawberries and it shouldn't clump. 😊
Make a slurry with your corn starch. Mix the corn starch with a little bit of cold water and stir it into the boiling liquid. Flour makes a roux and corn starch makes a slurry. The trick is adding cold slurry to boiling liquid, it will thicken quickly with no lumps.
I received my family order within a week.Everything was as advertised. Everything turned out to meet the standards and more. I gave them to my two sons. One is a former fire fighter in our community. THE others went to my other son and my sister and gifts for others and of course we kept one,.We hung it on the metal door in the kitchen which goes into our garage. This makes it available if needed in the kitchen or garage.Thank you and I'm glad it keeps showing up on Facebook. Keep spreading your information .I know my family will.
This time of year would be the perfect time of year to clear more stuff around the pond. I just realized when Julia was close to the camera that she has epicanthal folds like I do. :)
Mel, when thickening any liquid with cornstarch, you are suppose to dissolve the cornstarch in a bit of water to make a milk consistency. Then stir that into your liquid (strawberries). You do this with anything you want to thicken. No cornstarch lumps.
Happy Birthday Abraham and Julia. ... If you're only going to be driving on normal maintained roads, you won't need the tire chains. I've lived in the snowy north my whole life until 2021 and never knew anyone who had tire chains.
Oh my gosh what a beautiful intro and the birds singing took me back to a memory of my mom. I miss her and this peacefulness just took me back to her and her love of early bird singers. Thanks! Enjoy y'alls pond for me, it's really beautiful.
Glorious day for fishing and a birthday! Looks like it was a nice party. Happy Birthday to both kiddos! All three seemed to have a blast either way mud fights! I make a slurry with water and corn starch and never have lumps! When I make orange chicken I don’t bread it just cut it into chunks then add an orange glaze.
Truly enjoyed spending the day with y'all. The kids had fun on the bikes and swimming. Mel you are such a good cook. Gary is such a great bike put together. Thanks as was fun. Love y'all
Happy Birthday, Julia. I t looks like you had a fun special day with great presents, great dinner, great dessert and most of all great family. Mel just mix your cornstarch in a bowl with a little water. Great for thickening sauces and gravy without the lumps.
I had no idea it has been that long that I've been watching your vlogs. I actually recognized 90% of your birthday montage, well since you left Vegas. Mel,...My grandma kept corn starch from lumping in sauces and gravy by always using a bit of cold water to mix it in BEFORE adding it to what she was cooking. And there was never lumps! I do miss her ..... cooking. She would also cut and cube her raw chicken into desired sized pieces before cooking to minimize tearing or shredding the chicken meat. Takes a little longer to prepare but well worth it. And the chicken meat will cook faster too! You have given me joy watching your family grow so I have given you a couple of my grandmas cooking tips n tricks. Happy Birthday Mealtime Eats!! Me southern AZ.
That video of the children from babies to now, I love love loved it so much. What beautiful people you are. An amazing family. God bless you all and Thankyou so much for sharing your family times with us. We so love you.
Thanks for bringing this video to us Mel, LOVED IT. Just a normal family day with a great family. Stay safe on the 41.36 and hopefully I should be back to moderating lives soon. These pain meds ARE GREAT lol
Happy birthday young lady. Mel love your sunglasses mom and dad thanks for teaching the kiddos God, Family, Country and hard work pays off stay safe my friends thanks for sharing with us
Happy Birthday Julia what a wonderful day . The dinner and cheesecake looked delicious. I live in North Utah we have had a light February a lot of rain. If you are taking I-15 you should be good. Chains to have on hand just in case in the high country. We have been in the high 40s and low '50s degree.
Happy Birthday 🎉🎂❤❤... Haha kids will swim no matter what the temp is 😂😂... Mel the beginning of the video was beautiful and so sweet, I'm positive you were in tears, because I was 🤗
You cook like I cook! My Mom taught me all of her recipes, but I can’t tell anyone how to make any of them!! It is a little of this, some of that! Etc!!!! I keep telling my kids, if that want to learn anything that is your favorite meal!!! You had better get over here and learn it!!! I don’t have much more time on earth!!!
Beautiful moments showing the kiddos. So precious. Love it. Cherish each moment Mel & Gary. ❤ Time sure flies...yesterday my kids were still small now I have grandchildren & great grandchildren. Can't believe how time has flown. 😮
When you are adding corn starch to anything resolve it in a little water to get all the lumps out before adding it into your dish it works so much better. One teaspoon to about a fourth cup of water works well to thicken anything up.
If you dissolve the cornstarch in COLD water, you can then pour it SLOWLY into the boiling liquid while stirring. This has 2 advantages... 1) never any lumps... 2) you always end up with the exact consistency that you want.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Julia and Abe since I missed his. It looks like you had a great Birthday Party with your friends at the park. And now a family birthday celebration. Julia you are like my youngest son he loves cheesecake of all flavors, but I don't. He doesn't like cake. Hope you both had a great day and a wonderful meal that mom made just for you.
Happy birthday, Julia. Your birthday dinner is making me hungry. Lol. This video is why I love this channel it's life with SLR family. So much more than just one thing is being part of the family. Lots of love from your crazy friend in ohio 😊

😢 fantastic memories of your beautiful family, you took me back to my memories my Daughter Sharon is 45 in March My son Ian will be 43 in May and my youngest son will 41 in October 😢we're has time gone plus I have 9 Grandchildren oldest Granddaughter is 27 in July and my youngest Grandson has just turned one on February 16th 😢😅😊❤I am the proudest Mum and Nan I could of Wished for ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😁🤗
cornstarch reacts to heat so you always want to dissolve it with a bit of cold water then pour it in, for that batch of strawberries a teaspoon and a half or a semi spoonful should be more than enough 👍
Mel the "trick". ...... always put corn starch into very small amount of cold water and mix until smooth before adding to any hot mixture. Never ever have lumps again!!!
I would comment on how unfairly adorable your children are growing up, but I’m sure there will be others before and after me able to find the proper words. I will say, however, that your strawberry cheesecake recipe is very similar to my mother’s with one difference that you might try one day. Add a small package of strawberry jello powder into the cream cheese mixture. My favorite is pineapple with the pineapple jello but strawberry ranks up there with it.
Your dinner Julia requested for her birthday looks amazing!! Very yummy! Great job Mel!!❤😊 Glad Julia was pleased with her birthday meal, bike, and ride. Also swim and mud bath! Family birthdays are the best! Happy Birthday Julia!🎉🎂🎈🎁😊❤
Mel thanks for sharing your cheesecake recipe. My GF makes No Bake, but it never tastes the same as what I grew up on. Happy Birthday Julia. Now Gary....Get back to work......lol

This is the same way I thicken gravy and sauces!!@Auntie Ann
❤❤❤❤❤
This method is called making a Slurry. Just make sure your Slurry has no lumps. Best to guarantee no lumps is to stir Slurry with a whisk.
What a fun family day enjoying Julia's 12th birthday 🎂 the meal looked delicious 😋 Julia cheesecake has always been my favorite dessert (I'm 76) 😉

The little pond looks great
if you mix the corn starch with a bit of cold water then no lumps
Mix the cornstarch with cold liquid, then pour it into the hot liquid, no clumping
If you dissolve the cornstarch in COLD water, you can then pour it SLOWLY into the boiling liquid while stirring. This has 2 advantages... 1) never any lumps... 2) you always end up with the exact consistency that you want.
Use a little water to mix the cornstarch into first, then add to strawberries or whatever you need thickening

Julia you are like my youngest son he loves cheesecake of all flavors, but I don't. He doesn't like cake.

Most cooks would dissolve the corn starch in some water before adding it to the cooking fluid. Just saying.

Southern way is to make a slury cold water and cornstarch mix with fork and pour into fruit .small amount at a time
Go girls &young man I remember thoughs days , have fun
To use cornstarch the best mix it with cold water stir to a thick past then add to your foods of choice cheers Aussie john
I always dissolve the cornstarch in water, then add to the sauce.
generally you add cornstarch to a cold liquid first not hot
Nice Video Guys...
Mel with the corn starch you have to make a slurry first
It's been an adventure for sure. I love watching the kids grow. You did an amazing job on dinner n dessert. My favorite you tubers for sure. Much love

Thanks for sharing!!! I didnt know that but absolutely WILL TRY it next time! Thank you for sharing with me
Mel that looked fantastic cheese cake yummy one of my favorites and Happy Birthday Miss Julia🥳❤️🇨🇦
Video of kids over the years was really a joy to watch. Thanks.
You can also use unflavored gelatin.
Use silicone or wooden tools in teflon coated pans so you don't gouge the teflon.
i love you sun glasses Mel. My birthday is the 4th of July so I love anything American flags.
Hey Mel, can you share how you pickle your eggs? They look good. I have always pickled mine with pickled beets juice adding few more ingredients.
thanks for sharing life with the children are good.😏

Thanks for sharing your precious moments! 😊❤❤❤❤❤🙏
A cheese cake in the UK dont go in the oven it goes in the fridge
Mal so that there are no lumps of the cornstarch filter it into the pen stew and then there are no lumps
That was the best watching your family grow! Loved the boy's pony's. Your daughters are just beautiful!
Is this your pond and have you ever stocked it.
Your dinner Julia requested for her birthday looks amazing!! Very yummy! Great job Mel!!❤😊 Glad Julia was pleased with her birthday meal, bike, and ride. Also swim and mud bath! Family birthdays are the best! Happy Birthday Julia!🎉🎂🎈🎁😊❤
This pond needs a airflow pump to get oxygen into the water
So much anxiety using a metal spatula on teflon pan.
All three of your kids have beautiful smiles. Happy birthday. Julia.
That was a beautiful video Mel
Happy birthday Julia.
Happy Birthday Julia. Have a wonderful day
Mix your corn starch with aa small amount of water before you add it.
stir corn starch in quarter cup of warm water stir then add it
We have the same discussion in our house. Why is cheese cake not considered a pie? We dont think it qualifies as a cake.
Happy Birthday Julia!
Happy Birthday 🎂🎁🎉🎊 Julia 🎉🥰
Mel thanks for sharing your cheesecake recipe. My GF makes No Bake, but it never tastes the same as what I grew up on. Happy Birthday Julia. Now Gary....Get back to work......lol

Hello Mel, I believe if you melt the corn starch in a cup of cold water before pouring it in the hot strawberries it will not have lumps.
That would be too much water it only takes very little .
