Grid Down: Baking Bread
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 чер 2024
- If the grid goes down and stays down for a significant amount of time, how will we bake bread? This video provides two possible ways we could do that. Knowing how to make bread and having the equipment to bake it will be an absolute essential in difficult times.

I'm convinced that these people, such as Mrs. Rose Red, who teach us how to get through challenging times (power out, grid down, etc.) are the best. God must have sent them.
Amen. He has called many people for this time and given them particular skills to share.
Amen! I like watching her because she gives the science behind her reasoning and we see she has the expertise. Amazing God send she is.
Amen!
Definitely just threw up in my mouth there.....
❤️
Every time I watch one of your videos, I feel I've attended a master class. You are an excellent teacher. Thankyou.
Even though the sun over loaf is pale, in a grid down situation I think we would all appreciate just having a beautiful loaf of bread to eat. So many uses for a simple loaf of bread! And how comforting it would be.
The bread looks fantastic, I love homemade bread. One thing to remember is to not rely on electronics for your recipes. Have handwritten or print them out and have handy. There will be no youtubing or googling.
Thank you again!
Good comment for many things but Pam & her sister will be putting all this in their book...i can't wait
Yes, more than likely.
While I keep regular books, my daughter has multiple old tablets that contain an unbelievable amount of books. She buys them 2nd hand, wipes them, connects up to our network, downloads books, and then disables the wifi. She has a core set of about 20 books that she puts on each tablet, and then loads either pleasure, history, how to, whatever. All in protective cases and capable of being charged via solar. I think shes got 7 or 8 now.
@@christines2787 I have several of the book apps on my phones and a tablet. My nephew bought a printer and I'm thinking of printing out all of them so that if the grid goes down, I will have plenty to read. Also ordered books through the mail for future reading too. Thrift Books has millions of second hand books to read and on every subject. Your daughter is very smart.
@@christines2787 SD cards holds thousands of books. Small and inexpensive. A lot of tablets have ports to be able to use them also. Can also use USB cards to store the books in.
We've been going over our plans. We are planning on 3 levels: High Tech, Low Tech, No Tech. Example: High Tech is having full kitchen working so can make bread in the oven and with electric grinder. Low Tech is making bread with hand grinder and using camp stove/oven with propane. No Tech is hand grinder and using cast iron Dutch oven over camp fire. When I started looking at our preparedness this way, it really exposed lots of gaps we thought we had covered. I hope that helps someone. Thank you for all the work you are doing to help!💖
I love that idea you've decided to use for your book. Can't wait to get it.
I’m 80 and thanks to you I have entered into the wonderful world of canning
That is fantastic!
You’re amazing!! Your knowledge is priceless. When I start panicking about what’s happening in this world, your videos calm me down :) thank you so much for everything you do!
I’m so sorry I forgot to ask, can we use gluten free 1 to1 flour for this? I’ve never made bread and my family has gluten/wheat allergies.
Yes, Mrs Pam please advise if we can use gluten free 1 to 1 flour for this bread receipt.
Thanks in advance
You are so welcome.
You could try that to see if it works--come back and post about how it turns out.
@@RoseRedHomestead You could rotate the bread in the propane oven. If you have propane, wouldn't you have a propane-powered stove with an oven in it? Also, I wonder if you used oil instead of water if the bread baked in solar oven might brown better?
Another timely video!
We had a power outage at our summer cottage. We also had a huge party planned for that weekend, so... we did all of our cooking in the fireplace and on the charcoal grill. I made bread and butter tarts. The bread was cooked in a dutch oven in the fireplace. I turned the oven every 10 minutes or so. There was rather large area that was over cooked, but the bread was fantastic. The butter tarts were made using indirect heat in the charcoal grill. I wrapped a muffin pan in 2 layers of foil to keep out the smokey smell. They took forever, but they were great as well. I've been researching temporary solar systems, because we don't have any water pressure when the electric power goes out. Until I was 30-something, we were "off the grid." We had propane stove, fridge and hot water heater, a hand-start water pump (so we were always checking the water pressure), and oil lamps. We didn't get indoor plumbing until I was 16. The sink in the kitchen had a hand-crank water pump. And until I was 11, the fridge was cooled by 40 pound blocks of ice cut durning the winter and stored in the ice house between layers of sawdust. We felt so modern when we got the propane fridge! We only got electricity because my Dad's glaucoma got bad and he had problems with the oil lamps at night.
Very smart improvising! Thanks for sharing.
If you want to see someone using a small solar setup to run their well pump, check out the Simple Living Alaska channel, because that's what they do.
@@anonymousanonymous7304 if you gave trouble finding the correct video, let me know and I'll see if I can find it. I'm in the garden at the moment.
@@RoseRedHomestead I would love to make bread but I don’t have a bread
@@patti6194 Thank you! The #1 question I've been pondering is how much solar it would take to pump water from the well.
To help some of you with costs, you can make your own solar oven. Use a box bigger than your pans. Line the inside of the box with aluminum foil . Keep the sides and bottom closed, but open up the top flaps wide enough to reflect the sunlight into the oven. Position it for best sunlight and adjust as needed. Use a piece of glass or plastic wrap to cover the oven’s top. Brace the box so it doesn’t blow around. For cold or windy weather, wrap your oven with a blanket and put it into a wider box for added insulation. Make sure to heat your oven up first before you start to bake. You can find some DIY videos on Utube on how to do this.
@Jenifer - I have tried this with a car sun shade but couldn't get it to heat up enough. I'm motivated to try again! Were you successful at baking in yours?
Interesting. I'd think that the plastic wrap would melt long before the box got hot enough to cook, but I'm just guessing.
Tried this with my son a few years ago and it failed...
Do you know how toxic aluminum is even when it doesn’t come in contact with food.
@@ReformedFamilyWorship Yes, I do know; It isn't. That silly claim has been disproven time and time again. If you're not comfortable with it, don't do it. There, problem solved.
I’ve been putting a recipe for fry bread up for friends that think they can not make bread. It’s been successful.
God bless you for sharing your wisdom Mrs. Rose Red
I need to start making bread. I need people to help eat it lol yours good wonderful!!!
Age give away... I grew up hearing "if the bomb hits" as well. I am from a survivalist/prepper family, so, we are prepared for, 🤔, pretty much every case scenario. But... if you 2 write a book, I will buy it. I will a few, and, gift them, to somebody that needs it. I support a book, like that, so much, that I would buy it just to support your writing it. You are such a fantastic teacher. It's a Wonderful idea. So, I'll take 3 when you have them ready. 😁👍🏻
Me too
Ditto.
Yes please write a book. Even if it’s a pdf I will print the recipes for grid down. Thank you. You don’t know how many lives you may save 💗
Yeah. I used to laugh at them in high school: hide under your desk. I told people they wouldn't have to worry about fall-out because our school was across a field from a SAC base (Strategic Air Command Air Force base). They would be a target so we wouldn't be around to worry about it. Hide under your desk. Even some high school students aren't that gullible.
Another Ditto! And would buy a few for gifts, especially for those who can’t boil water 😉
"Prepare for the worst and hope for the best."
I’m practicing my apocalyptic cooking now, because we cook for some people now who are old, sick, and poor. I love taking hot tastier foods to people. My hubby is the delivery guy, people love him lol.
A big oval crock pot is your friend. I put a whole chicken or roast in the center. Surround it by veggies and season. Personally, I love Italian seasoning in everything, so for the first round that is what I use.
Cover the veggies and roast (but not the whole chicken) and cook on low overnight or high until tender. I slice and eat the chicken or roast with those veggies. Then I push the carcass down or leave the rest of the roast and fill the crock pot up again with more veggies to make soup. Add water as needed.
Typically, I do white or red potatoes, carrots, bell peppers, onion, garlic the first round. Then, when I make soup I'll use cubes of butternut squash or sweet potatoes instead. Or add curry powder to make curried soup. If there is meat or chicken left, I might then cook lentils and rice in with it. Or use lentils and rice instead of veggies for the soup.
By doing this, I cook once and make many different-tasting meals. Great for individuals or small families or to share with your friends.
Great video, we all need to learn how to live without electricity!
Loved It!! I have a Sun Oven as well as a Solar Pot. I haven't used them for a couple of years but I was just talking about getting it out the other night with my neighbor. He has one also. My bread turned out much like yours did. It was a little pale but delicious! You might not be aware of this but your Sun Oven can blow over if a breeze gets it just right. My neighbor built me a frame to go around mine out of 2 X 4's. They surround the oven on three sides and the oven slides in it. Then on the 3 sides of the wood is a metal bracket that acts as a foot and keeps it balanced. A Solar Pot is fun as well. I think I baked a round loaf of bread in that as well. Keep up the good work. You are my conscience reminding me of things I need to do again and I appreciate it!
That is good to know, Susan. Thank you! We get strong winds up here.
Ooh I didn't know about the solar pot! Better look that up. I have the sun oven and I love it, especially in the oppressive Oklahoma summer heat when turning the oven on is out of the question.
That's such a good idea about the frame. Using rocks and bricks can be a pain. Thanks for the idea!
A rocket stove would be a good thing to check in to also since you can make one easily with cement blocks or other materials.
@@lisakukla459 where did you purchase your oven?
@@sweett4rt Yes, I definitely agree with that! It's far safer to use fire rated bricks, and it would be very wise to go that little extra step while we have the ability to prepare properly.
But in a disaster situation, do what you gotta do.
Oh, this just reminded me - I remember seeing a video on how to do a concealed, nearly smokeless fire by basically digging a rocket stove shape into the ground. Might come in handy one day.
This granny of 6 loves your videos and is very excited about the book. Most days I feel like I'm prepping for my entire family, they all think I'm crazy, so it can be a bit lonely and scary. Thanks for your upbeat and skill filled advice! !
While I’ve viewed several of your videos more than once, I heard you give the ingredient amounts to make bread for a year. Thanks again!
Pam, you may or may not ever need to use any of your prepping BUT because you have been preparing (assuming most of your life) you have been able to help, many many others learn the skill. For than we all thank you!
Thank you.
Great video. I also sorely underestimated the amount of flour I need in my pantry. 😔
Pam, this was great! My husband is the bread maker and will enjoy watching this episode. We are planning on getting a solar oven and take advantage of our Arizona sun. Thanks to you we are on our way to becoming Preppers! Mandy from Tucson🌵
Hi fellow Arizonan! We are in Pearce 100% off grid
I have an All-American Sun Oven it is awesome for making bread
That is what mine is as well.
That is great to hear, Mandy. Love Tucson! I was there several years ago learning astronomy at the top of Mt. Lemon with those fantastic telescopes!
Just watched. It's been about 25 years since I baked bread. This was so informative. I love your teaching style. This looks delicious.
Glad it was helpful!
I’m so grateful for your wisdom, tips and presence in this community!!
In the military they say "When the balloon goes up" A hold over from WWI.
Thank you for spreading your knowledge as that is power 💚
Have you checked out no knead bread ? The gluten develops with minimal kneading 🍞
The "caterpillar"! Makes complete sense and I've never seen the technique before. I'm 54banf still learning. God bless you for sharing your knowledge.
I’ve baked bread by hand for years ,though it’s time consuming it’s actually easy. Being a single person I rarely eat bread now. I lived for several years in an area here the electric was always going down, one winter it was down 10 days, I cooked on the BBQ, ran a generator for the fridge you have to have milk and eggs even butter.
dried pasta, rice and beans are good enough. Bread is nice, but not a necessity.
I wrote down a recipe for Bannock (camp) bread. You can cook it over stovetop or campfire.
@@DogsRGr8 Yes, but if things are very bad for a long time, you can grind local ingredients and bake bread from them. Acorns (processed correctly), other nuts, many plants that produce seed including lambs quarters, the beans off of Mesquite trees (if you're far enough south to have Mesquite), etc.
Thanks for this comment. I was wondering about using our Acorn (like an Egg) barbecue.
Many of us in my rural area still have wood stoves in the kitchens. Hot in summer, though!
I want your book and your sisters book as well. I love all your videos. Thank You for sharing your knowledge about cooking, preparing and all your tricks.
my grandmother was a great bread baker - she used to say kneed until its "smooth like a newborn baby's butt."
Love your channel!
LOL! Love that.
My mom said the same thing!
yup that is what I heard too, I am 73 years old "till feels like a baby's bottom"
😁
You may have just passed an invaluable bit of wisdom to this never baked a single loaf lady. My boys are grown and gone but I still remember all the time I spent bathing and diapering their bottoms. Both my sons are bread bakers. The oldest loves sour dough and naan bread. The youngest likes plain loaves. Neither one will teach me when they are back home visiting because they only want my casseroles. Won't they be shocked when I figure it out on my own. Bet your butts. Lol
Brilliant idea. Please complete the book ASAP . Times are very difficult and there is a strong possibility it will save lives. God bless you
This is exciting news! I have ernestly started my storage because of that video, not just extras here and there. I have started a calendar of purchase, where I have written all the non-food/paper/soap items I regularly purchase and spread them out over the year, and when I need to repurchase the things. When my FIL said to get an extra package of tp, because of stabilty, my husband finally understood my obsession with food storage, and not just home-processed tomatoes and peppers.
Adapting "if the bomb hits!" Move over "when the grid goes out!" 🥰
Excellent demonstration using these ovens. I have been eyeing the Camp Chef oven for a while now so it was nice to see an actual demonstration. I look forward to your sister collaboration book. I taught myself how to make bread as a young wife/mother. It is definitely a useful skill.
Look for my comment on this item!!! 😞
@@cindys.w.8566 Read your comment and appreciate you review. I've been on the fence with this oven and guess ill stay on it:)
Awesome video. I am really wanting more more grid down cooking demonstrations. Thank you so much.
Hello Ms.Rose, I thank you for all your ideas, videos, and sharing. I have been cooking like a prepped for good many years and baking bread for all 36 years we have been in the USA, came here as immigrants from them Czechoslovakia. I baked all our bread mainly because it was better and cheaper then buying, and with seven children it gradually meant two loaves a day! I had to laugh when you said the had to be soft as a marshmallow. Guess what, mine has to be as soft as a pillow. I am thankful to discover your blog and I have watched any episodes. All my children are gone on their own now but I keep on gardening, canning and baking, and sharing all of it. I am your kindred spirit in PA.
My grandmother was also from the Czech Republic near Brno. She baked the most wonderful bread and was a professional Baker. I am also from Pennsylvania.
I really like the idea of using grocery sacks to cover the bread. I have been saving sacks for a few years and I catch so much flack over it. Those sacks are a great resource but you have to keep them!
So do I, I have three bags of grocery bags. I have a medical problem that requires throwing away trash. So saving the grocery bags pays off when I'm in public. As long as there are no holes in them I save them all. It they're wet, I let them dry off, then roll them around my hand and put the end through the hole.
That’s so exciting! I can’t wait to see this book of yours! I also can’t wait to add it to my shelves! I always learn new things when I watch you. Thank you for helping me be a better steward from my family!
Wonderful news about the upcoming book! I neeeeeed a copy!!!
Can't wait to see cookbook. Thank you so much for all your videos. always anxious to see the next one
I'm excited to see your new book! I've been studying ways to bake and such without electricity. Thank you for sharing. Blessings.
130 pounds of flour, my eyes about popped out of my head, I was so pleased when I bought another 2 5 pound bags, I have a lot of work to do. LOL
I am so thankful for this video. My next major purchase is going to be a sun oven. So glad to know how to use it for bread baking not just cooking meats. Thank you so much for your excellent videos on being prepared and self sufficient.
My first time for baking bread.... coming up! Thank You Rose Red 🍒
Grid Down! would be a great title for the book that you and your sister are writing. I can hardly wait for it. Bless you both.
Or SHTF cooking
Pam, I appreciate your candor about practicing these skills!!
Wonderful tutorial! I'm looking forward to your continuing grid down videos and your cookbook!!
I love your precise, enlightening and practical videos! Thank you for your kindness.
Great idea! I look forward to this coming book.
So glad you did the comparison! Wondered about the solar oven. I’m tempted to try and make a solar oven. Thanks Rose!
Newbie here…I am loving your videos. It’s 3:44 am and I can’t stop watching
Love watching you work, Pam. The bread looks delicious.😋. Thank you for the off grid bread making video. Blessings. 💗
I love that oven stove! The sun oven is very cool too.
I just got a Coleman camp oven to try to make off grid bread. I finally got to where I love making bread, now it's time to take it to the next level! I enjoy your videos because you explain everything in detail. I like to know why I'm doing something while I'm doing it. Good video~
I just got one too. Haven't tried it yet though
Love your videos! What a blessing you are for such a time as this. North America is about to go into times of testing of biblical proportions and we all need to learn what your wisdom can teach us. It’s not if ,,,,,,it’s when we will be dealing with no power. Blessings to you. Hope you will ship to 🇨🇦👍🏻
I am very glad I found your channel when searching for plum jam. Been a subscriber for a few months. Looks forward to each video. I enjoy your explanations and science in the videos very educational. Thank you!
Such a wonderful, well thought out video. Thank you! The propane oven reminds me of the ovens in RVs. From having used one and talking to other campers, placing a floor tile (you may have to cut it) in the bottom of the oven seems to equalize the temperature. I do not think it matters whether or not the tile is glazed. This is the recipe that I use, but I am not a successful at getting the loaves, once shaped, to rise as high as yours. Maybe it is because I use fresh milled wheat flour. . Thank you again.
Looks sooooo delish!! The paler bread looks just fine to me! All ya need is a slather of butter & you`re good to go! I need to check into the solar ovens..I have a slight phobia with propane :( Great video as always!
Thank you so much for this video, and I am looking forward to the other grid down ones! I now have the All American Sun Oven, used it several times this summer - very happy to see you making bread in it! I will be trying this soon, and your directions are so clear and helpful - thank you again!
So excited to try this bread recipe. And will certainly take your advice and start using my outdoor cooking skills more often
I have been dabbling in baking bread. We have a bread maker, but as you said, "if the grid goes down". So Ive been looking for a way to do it, just in case we do lose power. Thank you so much! 🍞
Hi Pam,
Great job with the demo of each cooking method. I have the same sun oven as you. I have never used it, but was very concerned about the bread not browning, after I heard many people talk about their results. I am so glad the bread tested 200 degrees when it finished cooking. That other oven is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen, and it is multi-functional to boot! I have to get one of those. I was thinking that maybe you could have put the bread from the sun oven, into the Weber oven to brown up a bit, since the one loaf had already baked. That way both loaves would be brown. Maybe remove the sun oven bread at 190 degrees and place it into the Weber oven. Just a thought. However, this is the way to go and I thank you from the bottom of my heart, for showing both ovens. You are just the best. I know the book isn’t finished, but I absolutely LOVE the theme of the book and feel it is sorely-needed. Sign me up as I’m ready to get one now! My husband and I didn’t have a clue as to how much wheat to buy. It was our first and continued item we bought, and…continued to buy….consequently, let’s just say there’s a lot! We didn’t know what we were doing, but we knew we had to have wheat. We got off wheat and went to oats, then rice, but by then we knew a bit more than we did with the wheat, so we didn’t over purchase. I’m a little wiser than then, but we still have all that wheat, so we will be using your recipe to make lots of bread. I made an Ezekiel bread that was more like a batter bread, but very tasty. It was not easy to gather the ingredients and grind them, and it took several hours. That just isn’t an everyday bread. By the way, the caterpillar you made on the video today was terrific. It looked exactly like a caterpillar, from this end. Great job on everything, and thank you. Tell your sister hi!
Excellent info... can't wait for the book!!! Off grid experience couldn't come at a better time thank you!!!
Thank you so much for all you do to share your knowledge and wisdom it is priceless. You always go the extra mile for us God Bless You!!!
This is something I have been researching myself! I am so excited to see you are collaborating with your sister on a book. I want to be one of the first to say I want one!!! I don't have the money to get either the propane oven or the sun oven but have been collecting different bread recipes that can be done on top of a small stove in a pan. So far I have had occasional success, lol. I am working on it though! Thank you for this new book and for your grid down cooking series! I need this!!!
We will also be showing how to bake bread in a Dutch oven over wood or charcoal.
Watch The Hillbilly Kitchen, Becky makes delicious bread in a cast iron skillet on the stove top. She makes all kinds of wonderful old recipes too.
What a great video! And thank you for the reminder to practice now. Since we’re in Alaska, and when things go wrong they go wrong in the middle of winter, I need to practice cooking outdoors in the snow and ice!!
And I finally got up the courage and used my pressure canner - nothing to it😆
I also tried to make ghee yesterday using four pounds of butter and burned it all. But “when at first you don’t succeed - try, try again”, right?
And even though we already had snow on the ground a few times I’m still harvesting kale! Want to dehydrate and powder some as well as can some.
You have been such a great source of information, thank again 🥰
I have used Pam's video 2 times now to make ghee. The first time, I was overly concerned about burning it and ended up with more of a clarified butter that I was still able to use. The 2nd time, I got ghee, but I also learned from another video, that some people prefer their ghee slightly darker brown for an even nuttier flavor. I hope you didn't throw yours away, because in that video, the professional chef showed how dark some people like their ghee to be and it was pretty darn brown. Having Pam around is great, I consider her a gift from God to me and every one else who is now making things they used to keeper on a "things to do" list.
I've now made ghee with Pam. I purchased and began using my Presto canner and I always cue up Pam's videos when I'm doing it. I've raw packed chicken and hot packed it, (both smell bad if you ask me, but taste fine after adding lots of spices. The chicken soup smells great and I look forward to making chicken dumplings with it.
@@omearica-rc6fp maybe I will keep some of the ghee! But I’m also already making more 😆
Good for you! That is a true triumph and I am celebrating for you!
Thank you so much for starting this series! I love your videos and teaching style and am itching to start getting into canning. My husband and I bought several acres here in AZ and we are aiming to be 100% off grid. We have a small solar setup that isn’t much but for charging things, no refrigerator and we haul water and we have propane. This series is exactly what I have been looking for. Can’t wait for the rest to come!
That's really COOL Pam! I always enjoy watching your shows.
Please hurry with the book as at the rate of inflation and Shrink-flation very few beginners will have the means to lay in the volume of supplies a family needs.
Enjoyed the video with your Sis and your dynamic !!! Sign me up for your book !! In the meantime I'll happily take in all the information your are sharing here.
You do realize there are lots of other books out there that are about how to start food storage, right? Not to mention many many UA-cam channels that can give you ideas and help? Don’t feel that y9u have to wait for their book to start food storage.
@@KellyS_77 Very, very true but I would assume she has come to trust Pam's judgement in things........great point though. Kinda like some of the YT videos on canning, I would assume some storage videos are the same, everyone jumping on the boat doesn't necessarily have the truth of how to do it correctly. But I applaud you for pointing that out to Dana M.
We are on it!
A solar oven can be constructed out of cardboard and aluminum foil for the reflecting panels.
Love what you showed us here. I’m sooo excited to see the book come out.
How wonderful and what a treasure the new book will be to so many of us.
Thank you.
Thank you so much!
You are so knowledgeable! I enjoy learning from you!!! Ty so much!
Loved seeing the use of the Sun Oven. I have one for emergencies that I have never taken out of the box. You have reminded me that I should work with it a bit! I do not think the paleness would bother me a bit since I was still eating well! However, I wondered if ,when spraying that water on it , if you made it sugar water, maybe the sugars would caramelize and brown it a bit more. It was an eye opener to hear how much of each item was needed to bake bread every week. I hope people are paying attention to the numbers!
Oh, you should! It's wonderful for homemade baked beans, soups and chowder.
Same the color doesn't bother me. I bake all of our bread in a Pullman loaf pan, so our normal bread doesn't have that dark brown color. Bread is bread I love pretty much all of it!
@@baillysmom- I have a sun oven and have cooked lots in it. But for some reason, bread turns out steamed, not baked. I have been practicing using a wood fired oven.
Were do u buy sun oven?
@@christines2787 I have been contemplating practicing Dutch oven bread with charcoal....
Do you have a wait list for you and your sisters book? Will it be available before Christmas?
Pam stated in a video the other day, she was looking to have it finished sometime in Feb. '22 if possible.
@@BrattyPatriot Thanks,I missed that. Just in time for my Birthday. Win win!
Looking for a publisher right now!
So excited that y’all will be doing a book!! And yes your idea is perfect.
Excellent demonstration and guidance. Thank you! When you cut through that 2nd crunchy loaf all I could think about was having a nice warm piece with a big chunk of butter on top. Oh, yeah. Looks delicious!
On the outside "browning" of the bread from the Sun Oven: Could you pull the bread OUT of the loaf pan (just after full baking) and then water mist it where you want it to "brown" on the outside crust, and then return it for a brief time to "brown" and then take it out, cool, and serve? That thought crossed my mind as a type of fix for the lack of outside crust brownness. Love your videos!
GOD Bless, Star
I make bread in the All-American Sun Oven as well. I find adding a little milk on the top will Brown it nicely.
I don't think most people can wrap their mind around how vulnerable the whole system is and how horrible things could get.
Totally agree. This lady has really opened my eyes. Just found her last weekend and I am going to learn how to make bread and store water. Also going to prepare a bug out bag. She is definitely forward thinking. I an going to start sharing her videos. We take so much for granted in this country. We are so blessed with an abundance of clean water and store bought food. 2020 was a wake up call that the preppers got years ago!!
@@jackiedaniels9764 Eating sprouts won’t last as a long term plan because you’ll eventually need more seeds. At some point you need to grow plants to replenish your seed stock.
I’m looking forward to your and cindys book!! Ty for your recipe and baking tips!
Appreciate you! This is the first video of yours I’ve watched. I’m probably about your age . My mother was born in 1925 and that’s her same bread recipe she passed to me. She always made homemade breads cinnamon rolls etc. The smell of baking bread brings back so many priceless cherished memories ❤️🙏🏻Good Bless you & May God Save & Bless the USA❤️🇺🇸✝️
Thanks for sharing!!
Both breads look yummy to me lol.😁
Where can I pre-order? I'M IN!!
I want to pre-order your book also.
I'm in!
Wow--love all this support! We are still in development mode and need to locate the best publisher! We will make an announcement as soon as we know something
What a wonderful experiment. Thank you!
Wow!! that is great news this was a great teaching lesson. Thanks for sharing and teaching. Stay safe, Blessings
DO NOT FORGET SIMPLE FLAT BREADS AS WELL.
Electricity is a luxury not a necessity. Alarmist rationalizations aside, less than 100 years ago people were so resistant to paying for electric, electric companies were installing lights in ballparks for free to sell their product in the Midwest. 😊. My Weber grill has a thermometer. Fire is kept in one corner.
Thanks beloved! You are such a blessing for us all! Much love 🥰

Hi Pam, thank you for another amazing video!
How are you storing 130 lbs of flour? You won't care if the bread is pale if the grid is down. It'll be the best bread you ever made and tasted. You're a trouper!
Auguson Farms sells wheat in 40-lb pails, so just store 3-4 pails. You have to grind it, of course, but 5-7 cups a week is do-able.
If you are near an LDS Home Storage center, the LDS Church sells flour in #10 cans that will last for years. Also, whole wheat, white and red. Other long term storage foods are available, such as potato flakes and oatmeal, regular and instant. Check online to see if one is near you. The price is excellent since they make no profit. They did run out of food for a time during covid. They do not have some endless supply, but either grow it on the welfare farms or purchase it in the open market like everyone else. So keep that in mind.
You could do 125 pounds in 5 gallon buckets. 25 pounds each in mylar bags in each bucket with oxygen absorber.
Wow what a HUGE blessing you are! ♥️♥️♥️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
What a wonderful idea that you two are going to write a book together. This is a topic dear to my heart. I've been prepping for years and have a lot of the same equipment You do but I'm not nearly as organized as you and your sister. I'm sure there's a lot I can learn from the both of you. 🤗
I really enjoyed this. I learned so much. This was oh so valuable to my family. Now I'm interested in a sun oven😃Thank you for teaching us!!! We appreciate you!!
You are such a wonderful, beautiful lady. Thank you so much for all you do. You look so much like my mom in ways. She was a wonderful cook too. God bless you dear lady.
Love the grid down bread instructions! You never know!
Great book idea!I also liked the way you demonstrated the two baking methods. Your emphasis on practicing skills was so true and the one thing I lack...the practice of skills. Only when our power goes out do I use them and evaluate what works and what doesn't. You have inspired me. Thank you!
When I was young I learned to make bread, of course by hand. Our neighbors up the road had a Bosch bread mixer and I vowed that I would have a Bosch bread mixer one day (I really don't like the feel of mixing anything with my hands). Several years later I got married, we had a baby and about a year and a half after she was born we all went to the fair and guess what they were selling. Yep, I bought me a Bosch bread mixer. That was 36 years ago and I am still using it. I did have to replace the tired, over worked mixing bowl a few years ago but other than that the machine is still going strong. I can't tell you how much I love that old thing.
Thank you! This calms and encourages me to use my solar oven. That camp chef oven looks great.
I have no idea how much time, preparation and effort goes into making editing publishing and maintaining your channel. I'm confident it is great. Thank you so very much to both of you.
Oh I loved this video, the bread looks so good. Love the propane stove, worth checking into it, in case the grid goes down. Well let me say when it goes down. 😉 Thank You So Much !!! Blessings !!! ✝️💟
Very good video, I can't wait to watch more. This is a VERY important skill to have and learn. Thank you for giving us the year supply list for better food storage management and prep. We have an All American Sun Oven as well and can't wait to try this recipe in the oven. Regardless of preference, the All American Sun Oven will never ever require an energy source you have to store or buy. This is a big plus. We love our camp stoves, but acquiring propane could potentially be a problem in a worst-case scenario. You are Awesome for showing and taking the time to film both methods.
I love your videos so much. We don’t want to necessarily face the reality of a SHTF scenario, but the truth is it CAN and likely WILL happen at some point. It’s better to prepare for it and not need it then need it and not have it. We are grateful for all of your hard work on these videos. I recommend you print off some recipes you need for use if there is a grid down situation.
