you can get milk in bags in America as well, but it is primarily used in food service. They come in 5 gallon bags for use in refrigerated milk dispenser machines in both regular and chocolate.
Iirc, it's not uncommon in the EU. I also think he was adding warm milk (at least the second bag) to the hot concoction, and that wouldn't help the folding issue.
Didn’t turn out right because you needed to chill the jello/milk mixture so it would thicken enough that you could successfully fold in the whipped heavy cream. I’m guessing that the recipe left out this step.
Having some experience with old recipes, I would suggest that there are a few obvious things that need to be done with this recipe. I say obvious because with this style of recipe the author assumes the person preparing it knows to fill in the gaps ( how could they not right?) but 80+ years later people aren’t cooking much at home and haven’t been taught how to cook in general. So what is “understood” in this recipe is that you first fully dissolve the jello powder in the boiling water, then you fully dissolve the sugar. Then add the milk and let the jello set. You were on to this in the video when you didn’t feel right folding whipped cream into a liquid. The mixture has to be set befor you fold the whipped cream in, then you freeze. If you do it this way you should get a much creamier result. Good luck!
I was actually scrolling down the comments where it could be fixed bc this recipe actually seems quite handy, and tbh what you say makes a lot of sense. Thanks a bunch for your reply!
Exactly what you say is correct. Most women HAD to know how to cook in the past, thus it was assumed they would have some common sense about cooking. Alas, though, common sense, in general, is lost in the current era.
Common sense maybe but if you asked young people today how they made gelatin dishes 150 years ago before you had the convenience of buy jello...how many would know that it comes from animal hooves and bones ....
I only just found this vid and only found this PDF a few days ago: msuspcsbs_jell_geneseepur55.pdf (7923) "The Greater Jell-O Recipe Book" (c) 1931 G. F. Corp. Nearly every recipe says 'Chill. When slightly thickened, fold in...' I didn't know that some of my favorite recipes dated back that far, like Under-the-sea (pear) salad.
Way better actually. Cheaper and easier to store in the fridge... I actually thought it was mad when I found out it was only an Ontario thing and not done by everyone lol
I grew up on Jello Ice Cream and loved it. My grandmum & mum made this every Sunday. The packages of Jello must be smaller now because I remember my mum using a full box. I'm so happy to see you making this. Also, ours was very creamy but my mum used to refrigerate the jello mix before folding in the whipped heavy cream.
I remember when my family was poor and got cans of evaporated milk..which makes me kinda steer away from all milk when I grown up it made me gag from the taste
When I've made ice cream without a churn, I still needed to take it out of the freezer a couple times and whip it up before it fully set. Otherwise, it was very icy and dense.
Even as a Canadian myself, I can say this channel is absurdly Canadian. From the tone, to the Leafs jersey, to the bagged milk, to the obsession with butter tarts, to all the videos off-handedly peppered with Canadian history facts/references. I was happily taken by surprise by an off-handed reference to The King's Daughters on the last video of theirs I watched. I've never even heard mention of it outside of a single Canadian documentary I watched. It's a nice break from all the American content that tends to dominate the English-speaking internet. Edit: Just noticed the denim apron. Although I've never seen or heard of one before, it also seems right at home in the land of the Canadian tuxedo.
Ah, it’s a real treat to see this recipe! My family still makes this for every party. We never claimed that it was “ice cream,” however. We all just said it was the “secret family Jell-o recipe” that was passed down through generations.
I’m an Aussie .. I made what they call Flummery here in the 1970’s . It had jelly crystals and evaporated milk . Kids used to love it 😊 You dissolved the jelly crystals in boiling water then added the evaporated milk and beat it till really frothy . Put in fridge and there you have it ! A light fluffy desert.
Hey Glen, I just started watching your videos and I wanted to say that your videos and your candor have really lifted my spirits. Thank you and I hope you keep making videos!
Lol same here! I randomly found this video on how to make cola. Then randomly other interesting videos of this guy started showing up and now I subscribed. Love it.
My grandmother was born in 1928, she made this recipe all the time. It became a favorite at our large family meals. Later in her life she skipped the milk, and added a softened half gallon of vanilla ice cream directly to the set jello and whipped them together with her mixer. Then put it back in the freezer to let it set. I still make it that way today when I want a nostalgic recipe to remind me of her.
Man please update the recipe, maybe with sweetened condensed milk instead of sugar and full heavy whipping cream instead of milk. Definitely want to see the results🍨🍨
Yeah it'd be interesting to use full cream and no milk. If the gelatin supposedly makes it more creamy, then imagine normal ice cream ingredients with gelatin added in too, it'd be double creamy. I like experiments like that. It's like the whole using frozen carbon dioxide crystals to flash freeze ice cream, supposedly making it way more creamy than normal ice cream as the ice crystals have no time to grow big so they're smaller than even normal ice cream. Imagine that carbon dioxide method with full cream AND gelatin, for a triple whammy. You may get the creamiest ice cream on earth
My family makes something likes this quite often. I wouldn’t call it ice cream. Seems more sorbet like. We use while jello pack, freeze so it’s stiff, shred with fork. Then fold in cool whip.
See, I would try the recipe again but this time waiting for the gelatine to thicken a bit first. A lot of jell-o salad recipes and gelatine recipes of the period you have to wait for the right point of thickness otherwise it's too slack for the other ingredients which either float or drop to the bottom. It's not necessarily the recipe, but a loss of the then common knowledge.
I was shocked when I moved to Germany in the mid 70s & milk came in quart boxes on the shelf, no refrigeration. Now we have it here in the U.S. soooo I am never surprised at anything.👀🙃 I love snow ice cream but snow is too polluted now.😝
My grandma said they used to take it out halfway through the freezing time, beat it through with an egg beater then stick it back in to finish freezing. Said it helped a lot with reducing the ice crystal formation.
My Mum used to make a dessert using a packet of jelly desoved in 250ml boiling water and adding a tin of frozen evaporated milk and would wish into a beaten cream state then refrigerate. It was delicious
My aunt used to make something like this. She didn’t freeze it and I believe she just used whipped cream and jello and it was very well combined. It was called fluff and she grew up during the depression. It was fantastic!
The cream would have been hand whipped and the temperature in the house is probably higher than what it would have been. I have no idea why he didn't think to give the jello way more time to rest
Bagged milk!! He's a Canadian! I've been fooled again. Ding dang, I can't believe his kindness didn't tip me off. Ah, yep.. that maple leaf sweater would have helped too.
Hey, back then you appreciated that among other fast easy meals with beans and rice etc. They didn't have what we have now. Miss my grandmother's cheesecake.
This stuff is great .try all the flavors. I use a large jello packet and i use 3/4 cup of hot water.Use the best vanilla ice you like .( dont skimp) pour hot water in jello dust and stir while your microwaving the ice cream down to a liquid.now pour together in a large glass pyrex rectangular dish. Put in freezer for about a hour to 1 1/2 hours. You can also add marshmallows or real fruit
I’m obsessed with vintage Jell-O recipes, so I have to try this. I’ll see if I have this in any of my vintage Jell-O cookbooks, I have quite a few. I’m gonna make this, raspberries are so delicious.
2 things- 1) even though they used more milk than cream, the milk they did use was probably full fat, rather than the reduced fat you used. 2) you might have had better luck folding the jello mix into the whipped cream in a very thin stream. The break down/over liquid saturation would have been slowed. But, also I'm surprised the directions didn't suggest the jello mix be cold. It isn't ideal to have such large contrast of temperatures when mixing a "whipped" anything. ✌🏾
Oh my god. This brought me back.... when my grandmother was still alive, she would make this, and i haven't found it since. I can still taste it, and i can now, once again.....
My mom made this in the 70s with cherry or lime jello and vanilla ice cream and it was DELICIOUS!!!! She basically made jello and while it was still liquid stirred in scoops of ice cream. i’ve been meaning to try it again.
I made this yesterday with cherry flovored Jello and waited a little bit for the mix to cool down before I put in the whipped cream and mine turned out really creamy, a good recipe for the summer time
Every question about milk in a bag Our milk came out of a real live cow, several dozen of them. Had to go out and milk them by hand not machine like they do today
Did you just imply that fake cows exist? Also last I checked when I milk goats I don't bag the milk, we just milk it straight into bottles for the babies or into whatever were gonna keep it in before it's pasteurized. Idk maybe cows are different, maybe real cows come with their own plastic bags for milking. Unlike goats that apparantley don't have built in plastic milk bags.
try letting your jello set for half an hour to an hour before you fold in the whipped cream. it should stay fluffier and have a better texture. it would be similar to a pink fluff.
It looks beautiful to me. I gonna do this. Thank you for the inspiration ❤ Also, the milk in the bag brings back wonderful memories of my time spent in Canada as a child. ❤❤❤
Everyone calls it jello salad, but that is just jello and whipped cream and whatever else you add either fruit or marshmallows(yuck). But this is definitely not jello salad, instead of adding cold water you add milk and stick it in the freezer instead of the fridge. Sounds good though, I will be trying this.
What a neat milk bag holder, we have creamers in bags here in the States. This is one of those recipes that probably can’t be rushed, I do agree it does leave out some needed information. The Jello Ice cream still looks good. Thank you for sharing
One summer as a teen, I babysat three kids all day. One day I found this recipe in a cookbook (no whipped cream though) and decided to make it as a treat. But the baby cried upstairs and my attention was diverted. I left it going in the stand mixer while I went up to see her. When I went back to the kitchen there were mounds of whipped gelatin in the bowl and falling out onto the counter. But the kids loved it. I think I use lime jello. It was either a Betty Crocker or a Good Housekeeping cookbook - in the late 50's.
@@WilliamMurphy-wp79 I thought the same, then remembered about British Imperial measurements. 1 cup [US] = 0.8327 cup [imperial] 1 cup [US] = 0.9464 cup [metric]
let me just grab a bag of liquid. weeeiiird also, i think maybe the real recipe would call for more jello so that the mixture isn't so loose and watery
I had a recipe similar to this but with lime jello, lemon juice, no cream but milk instead, and frozen, stirring every 3 hours to lighten abit. Put that frozen stuff into some 7-up soda and it is really good- a slushy drink. We loved that as kids in rural Alberta. Fastest way to get brain freeze!!
My Great Grandmother had a recipe for peach ice cream that used peach jello in the recipe. However, it had to be churned. It also used canned as well as fresh peaches (if available). I remember having it as a kid of about 9 other 10. It was creamy, sweet, nice and heavy on the tongue, and had a very pronounced peach flavor, more so than any peach ice cream I've tasted before or since. I've tried and tried to find that recipe without success. Some have even questioned me when I tell them it had jello in it. Almost like they didn't believe me. This proves that jello works in an ice cream recipe. This summer, I think I'll set out to recreate her recipe as close as I can.
I've only been watching your channel for about a week, and I only just noticed you were Canadian! I'm from Guelph, so the references to Stayner and Elmvale got me feeling nostalgic.
late night stroll through youtube. Hey the stayner sun, thats right close to where i grew up in Avening. Went down a food rabbit hole and wont be getting much sleep
*Sees milk in plastic bag* Me: Oh, Oh, Oh. Oh god. *Toronto Mapleleafs Shirt* Me: Oh, Oh, Oh. It’s all coming together now................... *Sudden realization* Me: HES IN CANADA!!! HOW COULD I HAVE NOT GUESSED???????!!!
I don't quite go back to 1938 (born in 1937), but in early 40s in rural Indiana, Grandpa made ice cream in a hand cranked bucket with ice and salt. Almost nobody back then had a freezer big enough for a tub of frozen anything. The other Grandma still had an ice box for a refrigerator.
We used to have bag milk in kaitaia, it was very handy and cheaper than plastic or tetra oak, also I've seen cafes in Wellington with bag milk in recent times
WE actually do a jell-o recipe that uses these exact same ingredients, except we use all milk, no whipping cream, and put it in a blender and blend until VERY foamy. Then chill in the fridge as normal. It tastes like a creamier version of jell-o... but all the blending infuses air bubbles that stay intact while it sets, and those bubble explode in your mouth while you eat it. Pretty fantastic.
i live in Kentucky and this is what we call Pink Salad except we don't freeze it. I tend to use either Strawberry jello with real strawberries mixed in or i will use a tropical jello with pineapples and cherries mixed in. You definitely want the jello to setup a bit more before folding in the whipped cream. also we add cottage cheese to add a bit more texture to it, some people add pecans,i usually forego those.
I use a similar recipe; my grandmother didn't call it ice cream - she called it orange cream.. She made it with orange jello and followed the steps almost exactly except she let the jello sit for about 30 minutes in the refrigerator before folding in the whipped cream (which I know she used more cream) and she also folded in mandarin oranges. It was delicious.. I'm going to try to figure that one out! Thank for this video :)
First.....use the mixer on low to make sure the gelatin and sugar are COMPLETELY disolved in the hot water. Next, rather than 3 cups of milk, use 3 cups of COLD half and half, and again use the mixer to completely incorporate gelatin/water/sugar mixture with the half and half. Use the mixer on "fold" to incorporate the whipped cream into the remaining mixture. What you are doing is making sure none of it separates after it goes into the freezer. If it still does not give you a good mouth-feel when you try it, take that mixer and mix it to soft-serve consistency and give it another quick freeze. I grew up on this kind of ice cream . My "farm wife" gram and her "loggers wives" sisters in law (8 of them, even!), who raised families during the Depression and the rationing of WWII, were absolute masters of this recipe and variations (depending on the occasion).
We used a similar recipe, but we would take it out about a half hour or so and run it with the hand mixer until smooth and stick it back in several times. It helps the smoothness.
On the last video I watched, you made a lemon cream pie which sounds amazing. I wanted to share this but ...When I was a kid 17yrs old, (late 60's) my Mom who didn't drive, had me take her over the border, to a store in Ft. Erie where she'd buy Sheriff's or Shirriff's Lemon pudding With the Golden Nugget of flavor. It made a good pie filling.
Even growing up in rural Simcoe County myself, I would have loved this as a kid. We had no stores near by. Really enjoying your videos! Make me less homesick for Ontario during these times.
Between 1934 and 1942 The Jack Benny Show was sponsored by Jell-O, and starting around 1938-ish they started selling ice cream mix as well. The canonical "six delicious flavors" of Jell-O were Strawberry, Raspberry, Cherry, Orange, Lemon and Lime (in that exact order, don't ask me why). But in the late 30's they begin advertising a thing called Jell-O Freezing Mix, that could be used to make ice cream. The freezing mix was quickly replaced with something similar, but with a different name. But they only had four flavors (Chocolate, Vanilla, Strawberry, and Butterscotch, I think). Pudding came into the mix somewhere, and by the final season before they moved to Grape Nuts (1941-1942), the show was officially sponsored by "Jell-O and Jell-O Puddings".
I accadently made something similar a few days ago... Messed up an ambrosia fruit salad, so I seperated and froze the fruits, and refridgerated the cream/jello mixture, overnight it sepperated, and I spooned off the cream from the top and blended in with the frozen fruit, got a creamy smooth ice cream / sorbet mixture with a fresh tropic fruit taste. :P
As an American, bagged milk will never NOT be weird looking to me lol

I made this yesterday with cherry flovored Jello and waited a little bit for the mix to cool down before I put in the whipped cream and mine turned out really creamy, a good recipe for the summer time
My family actually owns the original jello factory in Le Roy Ny so it’s pretty neat to see what people made with it back then
That's pretty cool. How does it look like?

Every question about milk in a bag
Our milk came out of a real live cow, several dozen of them. Had to go out and milk them by hand not machine like they do today
Did you just imply that fake cows exist?
Also last I checked when I milk goats I don't bag the milk, we just milk it straight into bottles for the babies or into whatever were gonna keep it in before it's pasteurized.
Idk maybe cows are different, maybe real cows come with their own plastic bags for milking. Unlike goats that apparantley don't have built in plastic milk bags.
Pft you milked by hand? We use to just go out and suckle straight from the cow until the farmer shot at us.
We lived in a box car.
I milk a cow by hand.
try letting your jello set for half an hour to an hour before you fold in the whipped cream. it should stay fluffier and have a better texture. it would be similar to a pink fluff.
It looks beautiful to me. I gonna do this. Thank you for the inspiration ❤ Also, the milk in the bag brings back wonderful memories of my time spent in Canada as a child. ❤❤❤
In Iowa we just call that jello salad... should of let it cool before you mixed the two
We call it that in Ohio as well.
Mix strawberry’s cherry’s pineapple and marshmallows with it it’s the best
Everyone calls it jello salad, but that is just jello and whipped cream and whatever else you add either fruit or marshmallows(yuck).
But this is definitely not jello salad, instead of adding cold water you add milk and stick it in the freezer instead of the fridge.
Sounds good though, I will be trying this.
My servants eat that

Depression Era?
Ahhh, good old student days.
Size of jello packets in 1900 was 3 1/4 oz, but was 3 oz by 1948. I found pictures of Jello packaging through the years to figure this one out ;)
I knew you were canadian when you had the superstore jell-o, but then when you whipped out the bagged milk I knew you were an Ontarian!
everyone's talking about the bagged milk
but I was like "he sounds Canadian" despite most Canadians living in Ontario have a very subtle accent
Also he mentioned that a Canadian cup was a different size back then
Greetings from Mexico, this content is Amazing! Cheers
What a neat milk bag holder, we have creamers in bags here in the States. This is one of those recipes that probably can’t be rushed, I do agree it does leave out some needed information. The Jello Ice cream still looks good. Thank you for sharing
One summer as a teen, I babysat three kids all day. One day I found this recipe in a cookbook (no whipped cream though) and decided to make it as a treat. But the baby cried upstairs and my attention was diverted. I left it going in the stand mixer while I went up to see her. When I went back to the kitchen there were mounds of whipped gelatin in the bowl and falling out onto the counter. But the kids loved it. I think I use lime jello. It was either a Betty Crocker or a Good Housekeeping cookbook - in the late 50's.
Bagged milk...
As an American, I am uncomfortable with that concept.
They sell bag milk even at the gas station like Kwik Star, at least they do in the Midwest.
I have lived all over the Midwest, no bags of milk
I'm more uncomfortable with the fact the cup has not been a consistent unit of measurement
@@WilliamMurphy-wp79 I thought the same, then remembered about British Imperial measurements.
1 cup [US] = 0.8327 cup [imperial]
1 cup [US] = 0.9464 cup [metric]
Its okay we are uncomfortable with having you guys as neighbors
let me just grab a bag of liquid. weeeiiird
also, i think maybe the real recipe would call for more jello so that the mixture isn't so loose and watery
I had a recipe similar to this but with lime jello, lemon juice, no cream but milk instead, and frozen, stirring every 3 hours to lighten abit. Put that frozen stuff into some 7-up soda and it is really good- a slushy drink. We loved that as kids in rural Alberta. Fastest way to get brain freeze!!
My Great Grandmother had a recipe for peach ice cream that used peach jello in the recipe. However, it had to be churned. It also used canned as well as fresh peaches (if available). I remember having it as a kid of about 9 other 10. It was creamy, sweet, nice and heavy on the tongue, and had a very pronounced peach flavor, more so than any peach ice cream I've tasted before or since. I've tried and tried to find that recipe without success. Some have even questioned me when I tell them it had jello in it. Almost like they didn't believe me. This proves that jello works in an ice cream recipe. This summer, I think I'll set out to recreate her recipe as close as I can.
I can only think of contra points when I hear the phrase "mouth feel" sorry...
Jacob Ockman we're everywhere
I've made sherbet using jello. Lime is delicious!
I've only been watching your channel for about a week, and I only just noticed you were Canadian! I'm from Guelph, so the references to Stayner and Elmvale got me feeling nostalgic.
late night stroll through youtube. Hey the stayner sun, thats right close to where i grew up in Avening. Went down a food rabbit hole and wont be getting much sleep
*Sees milk in plastic bag*
Me: Oh, Oh, Oh. Oh god.
*Toronto Mapleleafs Shirt*
Me: Oh, Oh, Oh. It’s all coming together now...................
*Sudden realization*
Me: HES IN CANADA!!! HOW COULD I HAVE NOT GUESSED???????!!!
Wait til you try these recipes from the Nu Depression Era.
Why is his voice so soothing and calm
I don't quite go back to 1938 (born in 1937), but in early 40s in rural Indiana, Grandpa made ice cream in a hand cranked bucket with ice and salt. Almost nobody back then had a freezer big enough for a tub of frozen anything. The other Grandma still had an ice box for a refrigerator.
This channel has grown over 6 thousand subs in the last 5 hours.
Bought and paid for $$$
I know....you hate black people
Omg I've never seen a bag of milk before lol. I'm from New Zealand :)
libblemao I guess it's a Canada 🇨🇦 thing. Never seen this in the United States either
We used to have bag milk in kaitaia, it was very handy and cheaper than plastic or tetra oak, also I've seen cafes in Wellington with bag milk in recent times
WE actually do a jell-o recipe that uses these exact same ingredients, except we use all milk, no whipping cream, and put it in a blender and blend until VERY foamy. Then chill in the fridge as normal. It tastes like a creamier version of jell-o... but all the blending infuses air bubbles that stay intact while it sets, and those bubble explode in your mouth while you eat it. Pretty fantastic.
i live in Kentucky and this is what we call Pink Salad except we don't freeze it. I tend to use either Strawberry jello with real strawberries mixed in or i will use a tropical jello with pineapples and cherries mixed in. You definitely want the jello to setup a bit more before folding in the whipped cream. also we add cottage cheese to add a bit more texture to it, some people add pecans,i usually forego those.
just found my favorite word: "GUESTIMATING!" XD
I’m the only person who can guesstimate my grandmother’s recipes because our hands are the same size. It used to drive my stepmom crazy!
Bagged milk. What are we gonna do next? Boxed chips?
Pringles?

I use a similar recipe; my grandmother didn't call it ice cream - she called it orange cream.. She made it with orange jello and followed the steps almost exactly except she let the jello sit for about 30 minutes in the refrigerator before folding in the whipped cream (which I know she used more cream) and she also folded in mandarin oranges. It was delicious.. I'm going to try to figure that one out! Thank for this video :)
First.....use the mixer on low to make sure the gelatin and sugar are COMPLETELY disolved in the hot water. Next, rather than 3 cups of milk, use 3 cups of COLD half and half, and again use the mixer to completely incorporate gelatin/water/sugar mixture with the half and half. Use the mixer on "fold" to incorporate the whipped cream into the remaining mixture. What you are doing is making sure none of it separates after it goes into the freezer. If it still does not give you a good mouth-feel when you try it, take that mixer and mix it to soft-serve consistency and give it another quick freeze. I grew up on this kind of ice cream . My "farm wife" gram and her "loggers wives" sisters in law (8 of them, even!), who raised families during the Depression and the rationing of WWII, were absolute masters of this recipe and variations (depending on the occasion).
AHHHHHHH! I FORGOT CANADIANS USED BAGGED MILK! AS AN AMERICAN THIS IS VERY UNSETTLING!!!!!
They had better ice cream in Goblin Slayer so 1938 shouldn’t have any excuses
We used a similar recipe, but we would take it out about a half hour or so and run it with the hand mixer until smooth and stick it back in several times. It helps the smoothness.
On the last video I watched, you made a lemon cream pie which sounds amazing. I wanted to share this but ...When I was a kid 17yrs old, (late 60's) my Mom who didn't drive, had me take her over the border, to a store in Ft. Erie where she'd buy Sheriff's or Shirriff's Lemon pudding With the Golden Nugget of flavor. It made a good pie filling.
You should have added the entire pack of Jell-O
Can you cook the first Meth-amphetamine on the 1919 recipe please
Even growing up in rural Simcoe County myself, I would have loved this as a kid. We had no stores near by. Really enjoying your videos! Make me less homesick for Ontario during these times.
Between 1934 and 1942 The Jack Benny Show was sponsored by Jell-O, and starting around 1938-ish they started selling ice cream mix as well. The canonical "six delicious flavors" of Jell-O were Strawberry, Raspberry, Cherry, Orange, Lemon and Lime (in that exact order, don't ask me why). But in the late 30's they begin advertising a thing called Jell-O Freezing Mix, that could be used to make ice cream. The freezing mix was quickly replaced with something similar, but with a different name. But they only had four flavors (Chocolate, Vanilla, Strawberry, and Butterscotch, I think). Pudding came into the mix somewhere, and by the final season before they moved to Grape Nuts (1941-1942), the show was officially sponsored by "Jell-O and Jell-O Puddings".
This guy looks and sounds like a liberal arts professor
Was it just me or was he showing off about having milk in a bag....
I accadently made something similar a few days ago... Messed up an ambrosia fruit salad, so I seperated and froze the fruits, and refridgerated the cream/jello mixture, overnight it sepperated, and I spooned off the cream from the top and blended in with the frozen fruit, got a creamy smooth ice cream / sorbet mixture with a fresh tropic fruit taste. :P
I really like your recipes you try from days gone by. But hey we may be in them again.
