I could watch 100 videos on the row of you guys cooking, and I would be in one of my "happy places" every minute! Haha... Love them so much, keep them coming please!!!! xoxox
I agree, I can watch & watch, in my happy place. Inspires mee to cook 😋
Yes me too, always happy when there’s a new video!
The harvesting and cooking is my favorite but I really enjoy any video they put out😎👍🏼
Same, the cooking is my fave
@@civicracn Yeah, so do I, I love them all! But any time I see them cooking it just makes me extra happy 😂😊
Calling it first. Simple Living Alaska will be at 1 million subscribers by the end of 2022!
I hope your right!
@@karenh.7086 I'm also that will happen 👍❤️ they really do come across as a very genuine, caring and thoughtful married couple, and having a great deal of passion for the things that they enjoy doing. I have no idea if all UA-cam channels are monetized but the aren't they very well should be, and of all the channels that l subscribe theirs may one of very few having such a huge following that isn't trying to selling merch, promoting a sponsor and I have very rarely seen any ads during their video. But if there was I'd be more than willing to watch if it helps supporting this channel. They are so deserving!
Aaaaand now I’m hungry. It all looks so delish!
Will we be seeing some cooking on your channel when the build is finally finished ? :-)
@@shirleygraham9932 I hope so too.
I’m drooling 🤤
They all look delicious. That loaf of bread looked sooo good. I could of ate that right down. Like always look forward to your videos. Stay warm
Yeah I can’t watch one of their videos and not eat. It’s just cruel torture.
Your channel really is the best of everything. We have adventure, gardening, survival, fishing, cooking and all those beautiful views of wild Alaska. My favorite channel on UA-cam!
Absolutely love the cooking videos. Makes me hungry every time!
Same 🤤🤤
Another amazing episode of Simple Living Alaska: In the Kitchen with Eric and Arielle!
Though we have very different tastes in food, I love watching the process, the uniqueness of your recipes and the fabulous results of your creations! As I always say, "any of the lifestyle or cooking channels would be lucky to have you guys!" --Jessica from Florida 🌞
I love watching both of you two cook and bake!! Taking living off grid to a awesome level!! Bravo 👏👏 coming from a old country girl!!! Stay safe and warm!! 👍🫂❤️💙
I just dragged my husband in to watch him make the pastrami. We are going to make it this weekend, looks incredible. It's not moose but venison, so nice to see new recipes and give me ideas. ☺
I have some grass fed beef we're going to use to make pastrami this weekend!
I wanna try that too! Also might try the moose(beef) Wellington one when I get brave some day.
@@thecrankyoldretiredlady5237 didn't that look delicious, I want to try that as well, I love your name lol ☺😊
@@stephanieb.741 LOL thanks. The beauty of retirement! Time to cook. :)
Wow, that's all I can say. I enjoy the two of you showing everyone how you cook. I also like the fact that Eric helps with the cooking. You two are an awesome team. Thank you for the video's:)
I’ve got 3 kids under 5 and it’s the “witching hour” ‘round here. I’m counting the seconds til I can finally lay in bed and watch this new video. Thank you for providing sanity!!
That’s gotta be the easiest method for making puff pastry I’ve ever seen ! Definitely going to try it some day as it looked fab 👌 have you ever had stew and dumplings? Think it would be great for the moose meat too! Dumplings are really easy - basically half weight of fat to flour ratio. You can use any type of fat you like - some tallow and butter would be awesome. Season the flour with salt, pepper and herbs. Add the fat/s and work it in lightly until it forms a crumbly mixture. Add just enough cold water to bind everything together into a dough and form ping pong ball sized pieces from the dough. Drop the dough balls (dumplings we call them) in the stew and leave it all for about an hour. It’s awesome because as the dough cooks it absorbs the cooking liquids and flavors. Stew is normally any kind of beef or game meat in Scotland with seasonal veggies - it’s a hearty winter warmer dish 👌 I like to make a big batch and eat it for a few days normally 😅
I love your cooking videos. You both seem like huge foodies!! You’re both awesome cooks. I’d really like to see a video talking about your pets. Like, how and when you got them, ages, stuff they like/don’t like. I really like seeing the dogs and as a cat person, love when Pepper makes an appearance.
I love all your content but the cooking/recipe videos are just *chef kisses* - literally! Wish I could taste your happy creations. (P.S: I no longer buy paper towels because everytime I see them at the store, I just think of Ariel saying how it makes her sad using them and then throwing them away. Making an impact from one Alaskan to a Texan!)
Awe 😊💚
Puff pastry is no joke, looks like all your moose meals turned out! I love pozole but never once thought to use moose meat. Guess that’s going to happen this week ;) Fun and amazing vid as always, loved seeing your critters chilling out! At least the wind finally stopped!
My fave is when you share cooking videos! You’re videos are entertaining but also incredibly informative.
I love your videos and I’ve been keeping a journal of your recipes and every single one I have made and I love them all. Last night I made your enchiladas and I used chicken and it was so amazing. Thank you so much for making my day with your video today 🥰
That Moose meat has such a beautiful deep color. These are certainly some 5 star recipes. I enjoy seeing you both and your ingredient swaps to make it work. Thank you for sharing.
I look forward to every episode you guys put out. The cooking is great!!! I love to see how you gather and harvest your food, from the garden and the forest to fishing and hunting. Thank you for letting us go with you on this journey. My favorite may just be the trips to the cabins.
Love how Eric is wearing the same shirt three days later lol that sandwich looked awesome!
He wears them for weeks, we both do! Too busy making food to do laundry 😁
You two are so good at filming your cooking adventures, not to mention cooking it. Everything looks wonderful and tasty, and give just enough prep airtime to allow a viewer to get how it’s done. Fantastic!
Oh yum. Rustic cooking at its best. I love how easy you guys make it all look. How many is wonderfully delicious when paired with the right ingredients. Kudos to you Eric .
That homemade kefir cheese 😍 Been debating if I wanted to start that adventure but you sold me today!
So worth it 🙂 we've been making kefir for 5 plus years when a coworker in Oregon gifted me the grains. You can "put it on hold" too.
Definitely need to put together your recipes to create a SLA Cookbook.
I was thinking the same thing for off grid homestead living!
Honey child Eric, your cooking is great and amazing all you know, as for Arielle What enthusiasm I love she puts into her baking. You are truly both great mastering all sorts of dishes half of which I never even tried them, I will have to come and be your guest for dinner. 😘👍😘
I can’t believe you posted this... I was just out at our juniper bush wondering what could I do with my juniper berries??? I have deer and I need to make pastrami!!! Thanks guys!!! ❤️ y’all, Kristy in Missouri zone 6b 😃🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I’m so happy when watching your videos. Good job ^_^ From Bangkok, Thailand :)
Love all your content, but mostly the cooking, preserving and eating!
I absolutely love your cooking videos!!! Thank you for sharing your lives with us!❤
YES....I WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT YA. TKS FOR VIDEO AND HAVE A GREAT WEEK. LOVE FROM NORTH CAROLINA.
Love to watch your videos. You guys know your way around the kitchen. Y’all are such a lovely couple. Eric, you are pleasing to the eyes. Hubby and I are already looking forward to the next adventure.
I love the way you use everything, even snow.
As a chef, puff and Remoulade
Were the toughest items for me. I make a decent loaf of bread but Ariel's baking always awe's me. Stay safe n warm. Chef Scott
That was awesome, love watching you guys. No matter what, ya always have fun.
Thanks
Every time I watch your videos I have a huge smile on my face! Thank you for lifting my spirits early in the week as my 20 year old cat had to be put to sleep this past Saturday. I'm sad but smiling because of Arielle and Eric!
Those dishes are all so beautiful! 👍🏻
Two of the most amazing and real cooks on UA-cam. Your passion for good food and how attainable you make recipes I have always considered beyond my capabilities has been an inspiration.
'Real' is the best word. No acting for the camera.
I love the cooking and scenery episodes , Thankyou,you guys are doing a fine thing.
Watching you both cook is just so comforting, the food always looks great and I love your enthusiasm for everything you do , you are both amazing and love that you always include the furry members of the family ❤️❤️
Oh my good cooking! My stomach is growling after watching this. I miss eating moose, but trust me, I was never as inventive as y'all are! Love the flashes of the furry kids! ☮️ Peace and love 💜 from Kimberly in South Dakota 💙❤️
We’re just gonna add a little more wine because well “why not!”
Well said, well done, perfecto! My mouth is watering. Were you two professional chefs in your past lives? You both work together so well and you do everything perfectly, I’m so jealous. You have such an incredibly beautiful life in the most beautiful place in America
YAY! My favorite kind of videos :) I could just watch you guys stream your lives I just find you guys so interesting!! Lol. Thank you for sharing and making my crappy day a little better :)
Cooking is my favorite part of your videos , gardening and preserving food are my second best . Thank you for all the knowledge and the entertainment .
We were taking notes. I love hearty easy meals like this. ☺
Omg the pastrami sandwich looks to die for
I really like how authentic this channel is. Real people, acting normally instead of performing for a camera. It's very easy to watch, without getting fatigued. And the content is amazing in every way. I would love to live in a cabin, instead of in a city. Fishing any time I want? Hell yes.
I’ve been binge watching this channel for two days straight and I’m obsessed. You guys are absolutely phenomenal in everything that you do!!
That pastrami looks amazing!! I would love if you guys did a video on making that mustard! I'm growing Japanese red giant mustard for the first time and want to make mustard with it🤞. Sending love to ya!(all your recipes look awesome!)
Everything looked so delicious !
I love when you do a video with a bunch of cooking! Everything always looks so tasty, and the fact that you make everything by hand makes it even better! ♥️
The editing makes it all look so easy! Like always! Which I've been watching for as long as you have been in Alaska or maybe just before your moving there, and you have always put out very well edited video. The two of you possess so many amazing skills/ talent's good practical knowledge. Until the next video which I am looking forward to seeing. Everyone do your best to stay healthy and safe. The two of you really are a blessing. 💓
I highly recommend radish sprouts for Mexican food. A little crunchiness still and the great heat of the radishes.
Could seriously watch you guys all day long! I’ve never eaten any wild game, but I think I would try it if y’all cooked it. Looks amazing! Take care and God bless ❤️
Oh my goodness this was a delicious 😋looking adventure! 💝🙏💝
😮 That looks delicious..
Thanks for sharing.
Have a great week you two..!!
What a amazing job y’all did using everything you have on hand. I can’t believe how lean moose meat is no grease at all. Y’all made 5 delicious meals for sure. Enjoy your videos so much y’all are an awesome couple. Stay warm and safe. Lol
Omg everything looks so delicious. This made me hungry, I’m going to go find something to munch on after watching your cooking video. Thank you for sharing.
Looks like they all taste delicioso! I love to see your cooking videos. Have a great week!
All your meals look delicious!
I love all you pictures and videos. You live a beautiful blessed life!
Would love to see you make some bread bowls for that stew, looks great :)
The lasange looks really good, raised on moose meat and its so strange that people dont know how it tastes 😁 great vid and thanks for your time you give us//SWEDEN
I don't know what moose meat tastes like because I live in Ohio. We don't have moose in this part of the country. I am curious about it and would like to try it. Does it have a gamey taste like white tail deer?
Hi! Fellow Swede here. Yes, but it is fairly accurate to describe moose meat as very close to beef and wouldn't describe it as gamey. I live in the South of Europe now and my husband hunts, but the gameyness that boar has here I never noticed in moose. Thinking about making pastrami from boar. I never thought about brining it for days like a Swedish Christmas ham, but it might actually be a very good solution using a brine like the one Eric made.
@@kaycampbell8532 I think I had deer once, but I don't remember what it was like. I bit ... sour, somehow? In my opinion moose isn't gamey. It is like beef but with a finer texture and since it's not fat like beef, it easily becomes very dry, almost crumbly.
No moose here in Australia 🦘
@@sandramarc4858 The "roos" better watch out though, lol , it'll put a spring in your step.
I watched the entire video and I love you guys... All great recipes and you guys are such wonderful, humble and loving couple.
I just love watching y’all cook. You are both great cooks and I love your recipes they look delicious! Another great video from SLA!!! 👍🏽
I did it again. Sent a comment before the video was done. Those meals look awesome. You two are great cooks and need to do a cookbook. Enjoy❤️
Now I'm hungry for dinner. Great video. Love how you manage to create fantastic dishes using the ingredients you have in your area. Also I enjoy your video production. You always manage to capture what it is you want your audience to be focused in on. Bravo!!
I absolutely love these cooking videos! Also side note, you guys have an amazing variety of content. Much love to you both!
Omgosh, that is awesome. Look at the juice flowing. The bread too, it is beautiful, I ❤️ bread.
Watching you guys while I'm hungry is torture 😂. That sandwich looked so dang good.
For those who are curious: Hominy is usually corn that has been nixtamalized with lime (slaked or pickling lime, a product of limestone, not citrus). Doing this releases the otherwise bound-up proteins & nutrients, especially niacin, that would otherwise not be digestible--if you don't get enough niacin in your diet, you get the disease pellagra. Corn "masa" as an ingredient usually means it has bee nixtamalized & is much more nutritious.
Lye (an alkaline precipitate of water through wood ashes) can also be used to nixtamalize corn, since it requires a strong alkaline solution to free up the nutrients in the corn. This was often done with the ashes from the fire used to parch the corn for long-term storage. The alkalinity would soften & cook the dried corn that was being rehydrated by indigenous nations across the Americas.
Of course, those that had access to limestone would use it as well. They would kiln (high-temperature cook) the limestone into quicklime, then slake it (rehydrate it with water--a very exothermic process that would naturally boil the water via chemical reactions) to make it safer to use. (This is the same lime that is used in making mortar, cement and concrete, btw, but done to food grade standards.)
Nixtamalized corn is a much more nutritious food product than raw corn, even if hominy corn tastes...different...from sweet corn cut fresh off the cob--you can still eat sweet corn, no problem, but for long-term storage, hominy or nixtamalized is healthier in the long run. One of the added benefits of nixtamalization is that the cornmeal or cornflour made from it actually holds together much better as a dough (which is where the term "masa" comes from) than if it isn't nixtamalized. And the dough made from freshly made hominy corn is the best in plasticity needed for shaping tortillas and so forth, since corn lacks the gluten that wheat, barley, rye, and so forth all have, the stuff that gives regular (wheat) flour its "stretch."
If you're going to make nixtamalized corn / hominy at home, please do your research thoroughly, and do the boiling in a very well-ventillated area, as the steam coming off the cooking pot will be caustic (alkaline) and not a pleasant thing to inhale or get in your eyes, to put it mildly.
Thank you for the interesting information, I'd never heard of hominy before
I love hominy! My Mother would cook it a lot when we were little.
Thank you but my Ancestors didn't use lime or lye in making our hominy. 🍀
@@OldWaysGardeningandPrepping True! Lime is simply the modern method most commonly used, and lye was second-most common in recent centuries, of all the methods that got recorded for widespread use & knowledge. I freely admit I'm not that familiar with other methods beyond those two. May I ask which methods your people used? I'd love to learn more!
Yumm! Love watching you two cook and the dishes look savory and delicious !!!
You two cooking is so awesome to watch! Thank you.
Yum!! I’m dying to make my own pastrami.
What the heck, no smell -o-vision? Looks delicious. Thank you for sharing this video. Looking forward to more videos. Stay safe.
So awesome guys. Thank you for the wonderful ideas. I’ve never made pastrami so that is definitely one for the near future. You guys rock!!🙂🙃😉
Wow, they all look so delicious! Thanks for sharing!
I love y'all.
Heading toward a mostly off-grid self sustaining existence in a MUCH warmer climate, it's great to see what you guys do with the limitations (AND ADVANTAGES) of where you live.
I REALLY like the cooking stuff, as a chef.
Just so ya know, pastrami has a specific type of salt in it. Not just kosher salt. It is typically one made for curing or a pink salt. This is what gives pastrami it’s pink interior color. Other than that, looks amazing
It’s called pink salt or curing salt, Prague powder #1. Also this isn’t pastrami, this is corned beef(moose), pastrami would be this, But smoked.
We don't use curing salt for short brines such as this one, we usually use kosher salt but yes 100% they are not the same 🙂
@@SimpleLivingAlaska try it smoked next time! Then it’s pastrami.
Corned beef, is what you made. But If you smoked it, and then steam it it becomes pastrami.
my family and I have enjoyed your lives your kitchen and garden. Thank you for sharing.
Brilliant video, everything looks delicious. Thank you both.
Don't leave us hangin - what was your favorite? Amazing cooking you guys!
They were all our favorites this time around 😄
Oh my goodness! Every dinner looked amazing! Have you ever made something you didn't like?
Maybe about five times ever, we aren't picky 🙂
Ohhh my all these dishes looks so amazing guys wow great job. GODBLESS you both
Great hardy recipes, meals. Love the way you clean the kitchen between shots, realy adds to video. Thanx, God bless.
How in the world do you two stay so trim? Well I already had my dinner earlier, but now after watching all that I’m hungry again. Great video guys, I do enjoy the cooking videos. Jimmy
You guys cook some great looking food but I've always found it odd that you eat standing up so often. After all that effort I'd definitely want to get comfy to enjoy it.
It’s a good way they stay thin. Hard work, home cooking versus microwaved no effort junk, burning calories constantly!
They probably just do it for the video because there's better lighting where they're at and they have all their equipment set up in there.
Im sure they take a few sample bites and then sit down at the table/couch or something… but I have definitely had this thought as well lol I could never eat standing up.
@@angelamarie4137 that's what I'm thinking. We've also see them sit at the other cabin or maybe it was a public use ...I don't remember
Pretty sure they don't have much room for chairs to sit
I used to help my grandmother make Montreal smoked meat and pastrami when I was a kid. Ive never attempted smoke meat because its a 2 weeks process AND I could find a zillion places that sell it in Toronto and Montreal. But now we are in a small city in canada that doesnt even have a deli..so i think im going to get a brisket and make that for my teenagers who I dont think have ever had it. Looked so easy
Oh my gosh I loved this, everything looks delish. Great job guys, hated to see it end.
Awesome looking meals....now I'm hungry and have to make dinner. You guys made my Monday. What a great way to start my week watching your video. Have a great rest of the week.
I love watching yall cook !!! Yall have the life that most people can only dream of !!!
You 2 outdid yourselves on this video. Thank you for sharing and stay safe
"Because...why not?!" LOL!!! Everything looks divine.
Wow, you can cook and look delicious 👍😊
I love watching your cooking videos. Thanks for sharing!
Amazing. As always. You guys always give me so many ideas for cooking. A lot of my inspiration to learn how to cook came from finding your channel about a year or two ago :) awesome y’all!
I love this channel! I found it a few months ago and have been totally binging it with my girlfriend.
We just feel so relaxed and at ease watching this channel. There's just truly something special about you guys.
Thank you so much, and I have so much respect for your guys' journey to Alaska. We want to do something like this, but we're scared ofc and don't have nearly the experience either. Idk if we ever will, but you guys continue to be a huge inspiration and a joy to watch. Thank you
I’ve so much respect and admiration for you both. I enjoyed the video. Thank you for sharing ❤️❤️
I really like these deep dive videos looking at one ingredient. Everything looks so good!
Wow that looks delicious. You are making me hungry. Enjoy👍
Everything you both fix, looks amazingly delicious. Sure do. I even watch you on You Tube on TV and fb on my phone.
I love watching you guys cook together yet apart. 😀 Your recipes are traditional with your twist. I love it! I’m so glad I subscribed. 🥰
That meat and sandwich looks sooo good !! Love watching your cooking talents !!
All the meals look delicious.. enjoy your video's.
Love these cooking videos. I ❤️ when I get notifications of my favorite people on UA-cam. Omg you basically made Beef Wellington yum! Never had Moose meat. If I'm ever in Alaska I hope to try it
