Dude as a young cook I really enjoy foraging for ingredients to make my specials, and the fact that you just do this for your enjoyment at home is so cool. It really makes it worthwhile knowing people are attacked to that natural flavor.
I appreciate your mellow editing style. The camera angle choices and where you place cuts are cool, without having that unceasing tempo of most youtube videos.
“If anyone asks you what you’re doing when you’re out harvesting Douglas Fir needles, just tell them you follow a weirdo on the internet”😂🤣😂 Justin, you are my spirit animal.
Powdered sugar is just blended sugar, so you are good. Also, you should make a chúng from the needles and use the syrup, I bet that would be good. Basically just put equal amounts by weight the tips and the sugar and it’ll make a syrup that’s really good
After following here for the last year or so, I bought my first lathe this week, and turned a Douglas fir vase (turned out shockingly well!). Oh boy was I ever excited when I found a bit of chatoyancy on one side!! 😅
Absolutely love the fun facts about trees and their uses, the woodworking, and the foraging of such ingredients to use with a project. This channel is very entertaining and I’m always coming back for more
Hey Justin, any chance you could make a Welsh Lovespoon out of some appropriate wood (possibly Sessile Oak)? I’ve been commenting on your shorts to try get you to see this! Guys.. help me out
on the one hand, here for the handcrafts and tree facts. on the other hand, also here for the randomly wandering the woods in a snowstorm eating fir needles directly off the branch like a madman.
Hello, I don't know if you read comments that often but I think it would be really interesting to watch you sharpen your tools. It's a pretty weird request but I feel that process gets skipped over a lot I get that it's not the most interesting thing for some people but I find it's the most important part of projects and deserves some love too.
I'm still building my background on Justin's life story as I'm marathoning all of his videos, but from what I gather - at the beginning of the video he has asked and directed his partner (or a dear friend) who he has invited with him on a winter hike during thick snows to film him biting trees while he screams into the sky... and I think that's really special.
itd be really fun if you did a meet and greet sometime, im sure me and my fellow utahns would love that they dont have to travel like 2+ states for once lmao
I had a guy up in Alaska who was a tour guide give me and my wife a free tour experience because we worked with his girlfriend. Fresh spruce tips are amazing! Also goose weed(?) great stuff. Grows by the shore and picks up the salts nicely and makes a great addition to salads!
I used this sugar technique to make some Eastern White Pine sugar cookies. The flavor is very subtle so they’re great if it’s your first foray into the conifer needle flavor, but I imagine you could also make a pine needle pesto. Considering pesto already has pine nuts in it, I think it’s fitting. I don’t intend to do this myself, but you can also buy pine nut oil (it’s pretty expensive though) and you could use that to replace the olive oil used in pesto for a 100% pine pesto.
By the way, you are giving me brad Leone vibes a little! I feel like your videos would work amazing with some graphic editing (maybe not quite its alive style but something similar)
Wooden ice pick stabber stick. And they quietly sent you away from the store, you say?? :P Also, the weirdo comment, LoL, wanna say oh well, you're our weirdo, hahaah Love it, and all you do. You have the best job ever, making all this stuff, and making it interesting, enriching our lives with all your knowledge and expertise from over there in your lovely home... And we appreciate it Very fine workmanship on the big (giants) toothpick
I like the idea of the poker. But maybe make one that will cut and poke at the same time or poke multiple holes at the same time. 😂 I'm not sure how to engineer that. Just a thought.
They do make rollers for poking multiple holes at a time, if you Google pastry docker you can see what those look like. I haven't seen something to cut and poke holes at the same time though so there is definitely room for innovation 😀
Im planning on making some pine cone syrup come spring, but I'm not sure what kind of pines we have in our yard. Are all seed bearing pinecones safe to make syrup with?
If you don’t mind me asking, what oil do you put on the wood when your done? Is it food safe? I’m trying to find something I can use because I want to hand carve bowls and platters for my little brother (he loves making sushi)
hey dude, i watched a video of yours where you featured an ashtray you made out of mountian mahogany. do you know where a guy could buy/harvest a good sized piece of this stuff? it seems like it would be really good for a fingerboard on a guitar. or a neck for that matter. it looks sweet and i bet if you cut a long thin piece, hung it from a string and rang it with a stick, it would ring like a bell.
I love the hybridization of cooking channel meets woodworking. It's fantastic, and creative.

Made spruce tip syrup a bunch! Stay tuned for that this summer
most powdered sugar also contains cornstarch as an anti-caking agent. still probably wouldn’t have hurt it, though
Spruces are sharp, firs are friendly, pines like to party 😊
It is amazing how you can seem so wise and experienced while also completely clueless at the exact same time

I really enjoy how you incorporated cooking and wood working it's fun to see what you make and how you use them for the foods you bake
I know you get this a lot but I just want to tell you I absolutely love your videos in every way and you look amazing

Oh yeah, this is the wholesome content I need.
I’m tempted to take over my mum’s kitchen and make a thousand variations of tree shortbread, that looks amazing!😋💚
I love your videos and shorts. The looks, the humor, and the learning.
A docker, you made a docker
Your passion shines through in each and every one of your videos and it's so infectious 😊
Poking holes in a dough or crust to prevent rising and unwanted bubbles is called "docking" so you made a docker.
I love these adventures into cooking & woodworking. ❤
The snow we’ve gotten in SLC this year has been insane! Ready for the snowmelt to make its ways to the GSL!
Aren't these past several months breaking several records for snow here in utah? It's supposed to be spring why is there so much snow!
I'm still building my background on Justin's life story as I'm marathoning all of his videos, but from what I gather - at the beginning of the video he has asked and directed his partner (or a dear friend) who he has invited with him on a winter hike during thick snows to film him biting trees while he screams into the sky... and I think that's really special.
Going around eating trees in the snow casually
Delightful video, those cookies looked so good and literally made my mouthwater! Great channel and love the little pup in the last shot 🙂
i absolutely love your videos they are so calming
Your vids are just as entertaining as ur shorts! Had lots of fun watching your process x)
You should try making something with the paperbark tree of Australia, or the Melaleuca quinquenervia, anyhow, love the content ^^
I've never wished I could smell a video before now
I love this series so much.
Is it "Myles-friendly"... asking for our 4-lgged furbaby and fur friends

Yes
"Don't let anyone tell you that you can use a skewer or a toothpick..." Lmao
The way the mic peaked when you gagged sent me bro😂
Powdered sugar is actually blended granulated sugar, so I think your substitution is perfectly okay!
You’re thinking of castor sugar - powdered sugar is cut with corn starch or an equivalent.
@@diggysoze2897 Also called Confectioner's sugar.
@@athelonus yup yup.
Powdered = Confectioners
Castor = Granulated
I don't bake nor carve wood but here I am fascinated by your videos

The retching after the needle-tasting is highly meme-worthy!
My mom leaned over to see what I was watching and went: why did that man eat a TREE?!??!?!?!?!?
Bonus - if you've ever imprisoned in a coniferous forest you can make a shortbread stabber to use while settling beefs in the prison yard.
Now I'm on the look out for Douglas firs this spring. I don't have a lathe. Will have to settle for carving a chop stick.
Awesome. I would absolutely love to try this, but sadly we do not have trees like that where I am from, or at least I don’t think so.

I'm kind of curious now if you made a caramel from the douglas-fir sugar, would it taste good? Or rather, would it still taste...fir-y?
My man! Can u made a chessboard!!plssss!!!
Just here trying out your long form content!!

Foraging in that snow looked insane! That's a sacrifice
Nature will always let you know when enough is enough. In this case, a face full of snow is a pretty clear sign lmaoo
What if you infuse the butter instead?
Thank you for not doing april fools.
You could have put the Douglas Fir sugar in the spice mill to fully grind the needles.
Thanks for giving Utah a good name

Can you use what is sometimes called red cedar to eat? I believe it is a juniperus virginiana.
