      Yes! In a hot dog bun, you can eat the sandwich without the filling squirting out the sides of the bun. Still messy but not nearly as much as sloppy joe on a hamburger bun.

I'm teaching my granddaughter what's important. Also, stroganoff, meatloaf, Swedish meatballs, shepherds pie, seafood chowder and goulash are all in the monthly meal rotation 😁. I'm creating a cookbook for her for when I die so her dad doesn't starve her, lol. I'm also teaching her the basics of cooking & baking. She loves learning.

    I think Sloppy Joes, Chicken Pot Pie, Beef Stroganoff, Chicken a la King, Salisbury Steak, Swedish Meatballs, Meatloaf, maybe Goulash, and Clam Chowder will all make a major revival because given the state of the current economy, the emphasis is on _comfort foods_ and all these fit that description. Interestingly, thanks to a company called IKEA, Swedish meatballs never completely went out of style, and meatballs have evolved with a modern version cooked in grape jelly, a common snack during the American football season.

      @tommissouri4871 4 місяці тому +5

      they lost out in the '80s because more families were on the go and fast food was far too convenient. Now that McDonald's, Wendy's, and others are the price of a sit down meal restaurant, I expect to find more cooking at home, and that is why these foods flourished 50 years ago. They could be readily prepared without a lot of work and then baked or set to slow cook in a pot while other things were done.
      Inflation is making the family of four cost $100 out eating and you can prepare any of these today for a third or less of that.

    • @heatherevert274
      @heatherevert274 2 місяці тому

      Are the meatballs cooked with only the grape jelly? No other ingredient in the sauce? If they are that sweet, my preference would be for Swedish style or with BBQ sauce.

  • @NightfallShadow

    Born in 85 so lets go down the list.
    1. I think my family had sloppy joes maybe once or twice.
    2. Lobster? HAHAHAHa...yeah, that and crab....I have never once in my entire childhood had either of those. I only ever got to try lobster tails maybe once or twice and crab like once or twice and one of those was the one and only one time we went to the one and only red lobster in the entire state.
    3. Only my mother ever liked green bell peppers enough to eat one of these, and because of my parents I had no idea anything other than a green pepper existed until well after many years after I was an adult.
    4. My parents never made pot pies, ever. We only had banquet pot pies the super cheap ones. Maybe sometimes if we had extra money marie calanders.
    5. I have only ever had scallop potatoes from a box. Never with ham.
    6. If Tuna Helper counts as Tuna noodle cassarole, then yes, I have had this plenty of times.
    7. I kind ofwanted to try this because of doug. Never had it though because my mum hates liver.
    8. My dad always use to make strogaoff but his looked nothing like this. His was a cream sauce with mushrooms.
    9. Never had this
    10. Only had salsbury steak in a t.v dinner.
    11. Pork chops and...what? First time hearing this.
    12. My parents never made these. I have only had them in t.v dinner.
    13. Had lots of pot roast. Never liked it as a kid because it had no flavor.
    14. meatloaf...yep. Many times.
    15. Chicken who?
    16. Shepphards pie is something I didn't even get to try until like 6 years ago. OH, and btw, if beef is used, that's a cottage pie.
    17. I hated ghoulosh.
    18. Clam Chowder is a poverty meal. My, my dad, and my mom would split a single can of clam chowder and a single can of tuna to make tuna fish sandwiches between the three of us for dinner. Also we were too poor to afford crackers.
    19. Never could do a fondue party. Parents never had the money to buy the cheese or the equipment for that.
    20...hmm...I missed one somewhere.

    • @timothylyon2208
      @timothylyon2208 3 місяці тому

      Disagree, as someone early 30s, a lot of these aren't that healthy (very few greens in some of these) and I used to eat a fair bit of them when I was a kid.
      A few problems come from a lot of vegetables in my area tending to be sold more in large packs for families and as someone single, that's a huge waste compared to just buying a healthy meal from a restaurant, especially if I'm buying large quantities that are just going to go to waste. Then for something like pot roast, that takes so much prep and cook time for quality that almost nobody has these days. Finally, beef is also in a lot of these and it in itself is fairly pricey nowadays.
      All said though, I'm glad I live in Texas where we have H-E-B and a couple of these are actually quality ready-made meals you can grab off the shelf for half the price of a restaurant meal.

      Easier said than done. Even the "reprints" of classic Betty Crocker cookbooks have been "updated" to be more "healthy" and "modern". The only legitimate recipes "from the past" that I have literally date from that era. People who have never cooked these dishes in their original forms would not even be able to select an authentic version from the many recipes available on-line. They don't taste the same, because they are not the same.

      I make Lobster/Seafood Thermidor and/or Lobster/Seafood Newburgh all the time - Both are great dishes to show off when you bring something for Pot Luck -- ANd I make Swedish Meatballs almost every week. Pot Roast made in the Pressure cooker(not an instant pot) is a regular too. And I have bought Rotisserie chickens to make Chicken Pot Pie. And Meatloaf is still a staple today - it never went out of style. About the only thing I do not regularly make is Salisbury steak - because we never made that -we made what we called Meatloaf Mix Hamburgers instead.

    Very much the traditional meals of families with stay-at-home moms who read Family Circle and Woman's Day. Brisket was a staple in my home (born in the early 50s), my sister and I were given individual frozen pot pies several times a year and corned beef sandwiches were somewhat common. By contrast, I don't think I ever saw half of these dishes as a child.

    I consider myself to be a Sloppy Jo aficionado. Nothing beats a GOOD scratch recipe, but on those occasions when you need to use a canned sauce, I personally recommend DEL GROSSO JOE JOE’S sloppy Joe sauce. I like to dress it up with chopped onion and green pepper if I have that option. I prefer using a lightly toasted Brioche bun and a couple slices of Sechler’s bread and butter pickles to top it all off. It goes well with Chateau Potatoes, grilled asparagus and a lusty red wine.

    You won't see any dishes from my heritage in this channel's videos. The English are often considered bad cooks and my bloodline is mostly Scots. Haggis or even the ingredients to make it are illegal in the US. So unless I marry a woman who can afford for us to go to the UK (I am disabled) I am unlikely to ever get a chance to try it. ALL the dishes here are ones I either grew up with or ate in college.

    I never cared for the goulash. The macaroni got too soft and mushy, and it was like Italian food minus everything that made Italian food good.
    Maybe I'll try making the sauce and pasta separately, that might really help. And use a pasta better suited for a thick sauce like that.
    And really let the sauce reduce and simmer and get nice and thick.
    Yes, this could be good. I'm trying this.

    • @leahrowe847
      @leahrowe847 4 місяці тому

      You just cook sauce however long you want, then add the pasta & cook only long enough for it to be done b4 removing from heat... the trick is knowing how much liquid/sauce ratio to have, as that's where the soggy noodles comes from, bc the pasta will continue to absorb the liquid. My Mom & grandmothers all made this all the time growing up, & never overcooked/had too much liquid in it.
      Another version of goulash is to cook a pound or so of bacon cut into 1/2" pieces to the crispy point, boil pasta however you prefer (we always had elbow maccaroni bc it was cheap~ LOL), combine those in large bowl & add ketchup, salt, & pepper to taste/preference (some people like lots of ketchup, some like just a little)... IDK why or what exactly happens, but the flavors just explode when combined. My Mom would make this as a treat, & even my kids loved this growing up when Grandma would make it. Sometimes, she'd add an onion when frying the bacon, if she had it in the pantry at the time too.

    Most (not all) of these dishes are just taken right out of typical (West) German cuisine at the time. I mean, pork with apple sauce? Of course not. That's gross. But stuffed bell peppers? As German as it gets. Liver with onions and mash? Add some apple slices, and it's "Berlin style". Chicken à la King looks a lot like Hühnerfrikassée. Salisbury steak is a Bulette, the main difference being that a Bulette is pork and beef mixed.
    And the orange phone next to the TV? That looks pretty German too. Did you have those in the US?
    Pot roast? Just a strange names for a Braten. Granted, Germans will use pork rather than beef. Meat loaf is of course just Falscher Hase in disguise. Or not even.
    And fondue? It's of course Swiss, not German, but the classic variation is hot oil with meat cubes. Yes, the cheese variety is kinda sorta popular as well. But you dunk break into the cheese. Bread. Nothing else. Bread. Not broccoli. Bread. (Don't get me started on choc fondue.)
