  • Oh goodness this is good! 2 recipes from the 1820s brought back to life + a cabbage with bacon dish so old no one quite knows when it first started. Let's eat & give thanks to the many Irish immigrants that made up early America.

    All 3 recipes are translated into modern directions below. Thank you so much for watching and for being a friend 😭We are nearing 1 million subscribers thanks to you!
    An Irish Stew from 1822
    Ingredients:
    1 pound of mutton (I'm sure that you can sub this with beef or lamb and it'll still taste amazing)
    2 pounds of potatoes
    1 onion
    1 cup of broth, I used vegetable broth
    1 teaspoon of white pepper
    1 teaspoon of salt, or to taste
    Directions: Peel and cut into halves your potatoes. Also cut up an onion. In a deep pan or stewpot put down a layer of the potatoes, then meat, then onions, and again potatoes. Now separately mix up your white pepper and salt into vegetable broth. Pour the broth into the pan, cover well and allow to simmer for 2 hours. Be careful to not cook at anything higher than a gentle simmer.
    Irish Cabbage, flavored with bacon
    Ingredients:
    1 head of white cabbage
    3 slices of bacon
    1 teaspoon of peppercorns
    1 tablespoon of butter
    1 teaspoon of salt, or to taste
    Directions: Place 3 slices of bacon folded over in the middle of an outer cabbage leaf with 1 teaspoon of peppercorns. Fold the cabbage leaf inwards over the bacon and tie it off with some cooking twine that is suitable for boiling. Now cut your remaining cabbage and put it into a deep pot. Cover with water and add in your salt. Bring to a boil then simmer for 20-30 minutes or until tender. Drain the cabbage and return it to the pot. Discard the cabbage package. Add to it the butter and mix up till melted.
    Irish Pancakes, 1823
    Ingredients:
    4 egg yolks
    2 egg whites
    1 cup of cream, warmed
    1/4 cup of sugar
    Half a teaspoon of ground nutmeg
    1/4 cup butter, melted
    Half a cup of flour
    Directions: Whip together 4 egg yolks with 2 egg whites. Strain them into 1 cup of WARM cream. Straining the egg removes the membrane-like part of the egg whites. Add nutmeg, sugar and your liquid butter. Into this slowly add in half of a cup of flour while stirring. Now in a hot (but not too hot) skillet melt a bit of butter and then fry up the pancakes thin. Keep in mind that pancakes used to be thinner than they are today. Flip over once one side is golden. For me this took roughly 3-5 minutes per side.

      no sugar in Irish pancakes or indeed nutmeg. Hardly would put cream in there, if buttermilk was available and it always was. We never separated the yolk from the white back in the day tbh.

      It’s mainly timing. The longer it sits the hotter it’ll become and also the amount of coals. I can imagine also that you would need a roaring fire to have things boil.it would take a little practice especially for someone who doesn’t know how to properly cook things already stovetop or grill.

    We cook this dish in England also..Have done for decades..We add carrots and some times celery. I also like barley lamb stew. My mother used to cook these 2 dishes when I was a child 50 years ago and her mother before her. This dish goes way back,probably to the Tudor times...They are my favorite dishes to this day.

    I watch this and imagine how everything comes about. Just getting the water into the house was a big chore. Every time you needed water you would go out to the well and bring it in. Can you imagine how gleeful people were just to have a water pump in the kitchen. No more trudging through the snow or heat to have to carry several gallons of water at a time, multiple times a day. You just pump the water as needed into the sink or pail or pot.

    정말 흥미롭고 멋진 채널이네요.200년 전의 역사와 생활, 음식문화를 간접체험한다는건 대단한 기회지요. 멋진 비디오를 공유해 주셔서 감사합니다.
