I’m American and I can’t seem to stop watching these videos. I absolutely love them 😂😂
I thought that I was the only one.
So do I
Same. 🇺🇸
Same
Here here!!
AND THEN LESS THAN A MINUTE LATER?! There's that squirrel again! And she even takes the time to share a bit of cake with them! Adorable!
How precious are squirrels!!!😄
I'm American. I worked as a legal secretary for a large Houston insurance defense law firm years ago. The managing partner and all the attorneys had a luncheon for us and all of our bosses actually served us. It was a wonderful day and meant so much to me and all the staff. They said it was in appreciation for all of our hard work and overtime when we had a tight deadline. I'll never forget that day. The ladies serving the maids seems like a similar idea. I bet the maids had an amazing time!
Jesus Christ so fucking what
Sounds like a one time thing. More thought was put into it, than a nice thank-you note, to evoke loyalty and emotional binding. A touching gesture, they wouldn't necessarily have to repeat every time. Wouldn't it have been a real surprise to give you a little bonus or an extra day off for your work?
And for the maids? If they realy appreciated their hard work they shouldn't have let them work extra without payment during holidays, for when they have to use the rest room etc., It was all summed up and you'll have to work it off. Giving up a free day of your already sparse free time is not appeciating their work and they would have to take the day of for this invitation, too. Also their social standing,...non regulated working hours,... But back in the day, who wouldn't have gone to this event? The maids would have been thrilled for the privilege of such an invitation and their employers would have wanted for them to go.

These shows are so much fun to watch. I love the history along with the sense of humor and fun the host and chefs are having.
Can we chat on instagram please
Yeah and the chef must be a great guy
Hello how are you doing Denise
Right!!!! Why can't everything always be as lovely and fascinating as these episodes??
This chef is my favorite , his personality and sweet demeanor mesh nicely with Michael's appetite for grand food and interesting topics .
Who else comes here from Tasting History and Mrs Crocombe? Such a lovely series!
Im wondering when Mrs. Crocombe is going to kick them out of her kitchen
This is like the loyalist version of Townsends
Tasting History and Townsend right here !
Thank you for mentioning of these series
@@helena8999 Hello. How are you doing?
This is beautiful. Highest respect to all those hard-working men and women who invented and maintained the art of all those culinary creations and culture of the table. No matter of their social background.
I so agree! .... Food glorious, ... respected, served to the Queen! 💓
@@patricemarie2960 Hello. How are you doing?
One thing I like about the british- they document everything
Love you all.
Yeah! I envy them! I wish my country had more docs about the nice aspects of our culture, instead of just wall to wall wars & crimes.
Not just British it’s very German
I’m American, Irish and Catholic am I supposed to love this Queen? I don’t know, but I certainly do.
I think she is an extraordinary woman.
I do admire the Queen myself, but dislike the Monarchy in general
She sets a great example, which will turn into a grand legacy one day
You don't know much about her then. They are very evil people.
I'm from the same background and I feel the same way you do. The Queen is a remarkable woman. She has never put a foot wrong in upholding the dignity of the monarchy in her 70 years on the throne. She unexpectedly inherited the position as a young woman, and far from bemoaning her fate, she got on with what she had to do, with character and resilience. And then, in her final years, along comes shallow Meg and causes this level of grief. She is, in a calculated way, trying to damage the reputation of the RF and by extension, the monarch. With the apparent approval of Harry, who is reputed to be the Queen's favorite grandson. What a betrayal.
Well, considering there were wars fought over religion in England and still are in Northern Ireland....Protestant vs Catholic...
Love Eclairs or 'choux'! They are one of the easiest and impressive baking solutions. Boil a cup of milk and 1/4 pound of butter, then dump 1/3 pound of flour into the pan and quickly stir it into a ball of mash. Remove from the heat and mix in 4 eggs 'til smooth. Shape by spoonfuls into tiny buns, a wreath, or pipe into fingers, then pop in a hot oven until it smells baked and looks golden. Cool and cut open. Fill with sweetened berries and cream and sprinkle the tops with icing sugar. Or fill with cream and pour hot cream & melted chocolate sauce over them.
Thanks!!!
TYSM!!!
Thank you for the recipe. 🍰🌼♥️
My gosh you're making me drool 🤤
Michael just exudes warmth. He has such a merriment about him -- and he has a great laugh as well.
The host and the chef have such good chemistry!!!! They're having so much fun!
It is called 'acting'!
Hope they have a Royal themed restaurant with these recipes in the United States. Bet it would be a hit!!❤❤❤
Tea is one of the healthiest drinks known. As a forever tea lover I'm watching this with immense satisfaction ☕🍪😁
I am a tea drinker all of my life, but, tea can cause cancer of the esophagus. You should only drink tea in the morning or late in the evening with dessert. An occasional tea in the late evening if you must.
@@patbogost3832 with dessert? To add to the acidity? Doesnt make much sense.
Now I'm wanting a cup of tea,and a scone,or two!!!
Hahaha let me get it for you.
Hello how are you doing Donna and where are you from?
One lump or two?
Same here! 😍🤤
@@leannshort6078 Hello. How are you doing?
I love the tips on the Battenberg cake ❤
The pattern of the Battenberg Cake resembles the Battenberg Coat of Arms, hence the name.
Who’d a thunk it? Of course, Ninny! Think we’re stupid?
You are lucky to have your Queen and have such a long and extensive history, ..The Queen is a wonderful Lady and an Icon in word history...
I’m an American who just loves watching this. Very enjoyable
I love the patissier! You'd think he'd be over it by now, but he really adores pastry, he's so sincerely excited. Not afraid to toot hus own horn, either! 😂
i really loved batemburg cake when i was small my mum used to pack some in my school pack lunch box as my pudding
Such a handsome young Chef...And he cooks and bakes,too. WOW!!!
Hello Ethel
@@charlesbob2587: Are you the handsome young Chef who made the beautiful "Checkerboard Cake???" I should back to the beginning of the video to hear the introduction of the presentation to see if that name matches your greeting. 3/15/'22

Hello, I really miss afternoon tea with my aunts. We had some good discussions and I really miss those dialogues and support. It made my life complete and happy. Happy memories of afternoon tea at home with my aunts! Stay blessed!!!!!
Michael Buerk and Paul Ainsworth are simply wonderful to watch. Their cooking and baking segments are easily the best in this series.
I love how enthusiastic Paul talks about food and how genuinely polite he is!
I think Mike is a bit of an azz.

Tea time is the best time of day.
Hello Alison Bonar. How are you doing?
Michael! I just adore you! You are such a pleasant person, your eyes sparkle when you talk about any dishes, complicated or simple. You love the kitchen and those who create it. And I love you! Thank you!
British culture is absolutely beautiful. Such a lovely balance between productivity, elegance, luxury, and simplicity.
I started watching these British cooking shows as soon as the live funeral coverage ended. I am an American but I enjoy their humor, their mystery shows and I admire the Queen and Prince Phillip.
lol ew
Which funeral was that?
Hi Sharon,how are you doing and your family,how is the weather condition over there?
I love these videos that I never tire of watching.
Paul is truly a passionate: A culinary "GOLDSMITH".
I am also an American anglophile....I think the Queen is a wonderful leader who sets the standard for other world leaders to follow....and I love the tradition of afternoon tea. What could be better than combining these two concepts, to learn what recipes our World's Best Role Model of a leader prefers for her own afternoon tea?
She can have everything.Anytime any day .Every day of her life.24/7 . She is looked after and cosseted. Dressed .Need not do anything she does not want to do. Her family can always take over. Its her choice all the time.Her own cars train aircraft to go anywhere. What a wonderful way to live.
We had a British family - friends, & having "tea" was having the 4:00pm evening meal with them... lovely hospitable caring ❤ 💕 💖 😘 people...
Yes, that is often high tea which may be the last meal of the day, particularly for children, or a light meal. Afternoon tea is quite different and usually includes light sandwiches, scones, and small cakes. Afternoon tea is quite formal in terms of etiquette while "tea" is relaxed.
HI RUTH
Glad to see Scones being done Proper Cornish. It’s always jam with cream on top. Reversing it is simply wrong.
Makes proper sense really 😌👌it just seems quit wrong in the reverse. Cream ALWAYS goes on top, no matter what it is. Btw I’m American, a non-practicing Jew as is my Mother, but my DNA is also 60% Scottish, English and Welsh combined. When I found that out the very un-Jewish things I’ve always enjoyed and loved, such as scones, hot tea, room temperature water, being in the mountains and highlands (I feel so at home in high, lush mountainsides like in no other place), clotted cream, Welsh rarebit, and the way I’ve always spoken in proper English even as a very small child, made so much more sense 😂 maybe some things really are “in the blood”.
I’ve tried both ways and I have no preference, just doing one side the Cornish way and the other side the Devonshire way. Jam then cream is neater while cream then jam looks messy but interesting since it’s almost mixed together.
My way is a compromise between the two versions since they still taste the same, just the order is different.
Good to know
But many do.
@@kathleenmuchka2559 Hello. How are you doing?

I feel Michael would be an amazing grandfather, idk just some of his gestures seem so warm...
Right? Ive seen other people describe hom as "super creepy bordering on harassing" so weird.. but I guess some people just want to hate on men in general.
@@TeylaDex He's okay in this, but on episodes with the younger female chef he comes across so creepy 😳
@@wickandde if YOU think so. I don't.
@@TeylaDex do you hear some of the creepy stuff he says with that chef? Would not say that with the male chef, few instances where the female chef raises her eyebrows in discomfort. Just because he says it with a British accent does not mean its not creepy.
@@wickandde if you think so. You have to accept though that jot everyone is of your opinion or your oversensitive generation.
I am addicted to this series. The chefs are fabulous!
I have had afternoon at the Empress Hotel in Victoria on Vancouver Island, Canada. It was amazing!
I did too, last year at the Windsor Arms Hotel in Toronto, Ontario.
It was quite pricey though. 😀
@@pppmanly Mine was part of my Christmas gift from my daughter. We got all dressed up and had a wonderful time! I am sure it was pretty expensive!
Same here!
For me, it happened about 40 years ago but I remember it well. Victoria BC is SO fun to visit.
@@dannsherstone1037 Last year the tea was $85 a person at the Empress and $118 if you had a glass of champagne. My husband and I decided to skip the afternoon tea and instead went to a wonderful seafood restaurant for dinner. The meal of salmon, shrimps and scallops with veggies and such, plus dessert, was actually less expensive than the tea. For the tea you obviously pay for the grand experience, rather than the value of the food.
@@bonnieralston1706 This adventure was a gift from my daughter. We had a sleepover, watched Harry's wedding live, dressed up and drove to Victoria for High Tea! It is a memory I will cherish forever! The food, tea and service were amazing!
13:38 Squirrel dances through the shot - don't blink - you can just glimpse him on the right side of the screen, midway up the side. Then 13:48 another little friend tries his luck! YES!! Finally, 14:21 - our small entertainers get their yummy reward for superior choreography - yum! All throughout this video, we can see our little friends & furry performers. Royal Squirrels!
I would love to see the queen preparing one of her favorite dishes now that would be a show
I believe I need to bake a cake now for my teatime with my friend on Thursday! I think lemon, chocolate with raspberry in between sounds just right. I’m inspired, by both recipe and the history!

When he used the knife to cut the scone in two, I can almost hear my grandmum tell me scones are broken at the hands, not with a knife. However, he's in a kitchen not at an afternoon tea.
I LOVE THE WAY MICHAEL BUERK PRESENTS THIS AND ANNA AND PAUL
Hello Jeni Hansen. How are you doing?
I live in America, Delaware actually. Ordered some Wilkin & Sons Tiptree Farm (the preserves shoppe shown in this video) strawberry and champaign preserves (it’s my very favorite preserve and very difficult to find in my state in person and on line in general), tangerine and orange marmalade and morello cherry preserves on Amazon, made and shipped direct from the Essex store and farm. THEY ARE ALL INCREDIBLE. So delicious. And actually reasonably priced even converted to American dollars. Cannot recommend their preserves and marmalades enough. They are Fabulous. Had no idea they are the Queen’s favorite!! But I can sure see why 👍
They are very delicious combine together
Hello how are you doing Rebecca

"Smells like beer"
"Oh yes it does... quite exciting"
One of the most British interactions I've ever heard. lol
there are literally dozens of countries where beer is equally or more popular ;)
Dominik Różewicz holy shit! I had no idea! Thank you so much for informing me.
TheOA99 yes..I understand the German people are quite fond of beer as well...😄😄.
Are the actual recipes available to today's viewers.
I love the Brits!! They have such wonderful way of doing things....like high tea...I’d love to eat mid afternoon..all those little tiny sandwiches & little cakes...yum
Yes having a snack is so sophisticated.
last Koresh you think it’s sophisticated to have a snack?? Lol. I know a lot of sophisticated people then. Now if you have finger sandwiches on a tiered dish...and hot tea...well that actually IS sophisticated compared to grabbing something out a bag or box and stuffing it in your mouth.
It's all presented so refined, and beautiful! 🥰
They call it Ceilon or Shri Lanka produced tea on a box. But only packed in England or France. I have a friend who owns tea business he said the best green 🍵tea is from Ch!na
I adore British recipes, and these videos are awesome!
I love how they're talking about Mildred. I bet she'd get a kick out of knowing she was being remembered and talked about 100 or so years on.
Loved this video. I am American, but my daughters and I love tea time!
Hi Katrina,how are you doing and your family,how is the weather condition over there?

My grandfather was born in Yorkshire area England. He and my great grand parents came here in 1886. I enjoy watching all these videos. It brings me closer to my British side of the family.
Three minutes in … Mouth watering over this incredible culinary art😋
Thank you for this video. Love to see and hear of the history of these teas.
Ahhh these are so endearing. Absolutely enjoy Royal Recipes!! ❤️
I totally agree! This group of videos certainly not only teaches us about history and how food changes with time, while staying similar and more healthy! I adore we get to see the d recipes from the palace in England
It was absolutely lovely to hear about Prince Philip, my great great Grandmother is related to Prince Philip!
My third great grandfather was a Lyon related to the queen mother
Quali-tea vid. Tea-rrific stuff! ☕
This is wonderful!! Thank you very much for sharing this with all of us!! What a treat! Isn't tea everyone's favorite meal? I know it's mine!!
This the first I saw one of these video's of Royals cooking. This is amazing learning the history and making the old recipes. Im from Pennsylvania, US, and it would be wonderful to have this here. It is so fastening watching you do this, anthing Royal I ❤ watching.
As a American I loved the background on that cake. Truly thankful for the history I’m a sucker for great story’s.
Oh wow, decadent and delicious! Love the afternoon tea!
Can we chat on instagram please
Do you really have an edible garden? I live in the high desert, and the sun just sucks the life out of everything here. Once I put my 2 year old avocado seedling tree in the after noon sun for on the north side (away from the hun and sheltered by the house, four hours and the leaves crumbled like dust, as if they had been put in liquid nitrogen!
The chef is brilliant.
This video is awesome.
Hello Kay Wallace. How are you doing?
I live in the USA. My mother and I have always been fascinated with all things about the Queen. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for sharing these recipes with all of us. ❤
I’m also an American & I love all of the videos, too. I love seeing how the Queen & her family live. I’ve watched Prince William & Harry formally known as Prince grow up, marry & have beautiful children of their own. It’s all so interesting. 💕🐞👑🧁
Such a great show. Enjoy the recipes and love the content.
Are the recipes available to the current viewer? If, so, where?

Throughly enjoyable! Thank you 🙏🏻
greetings mona, how are you doing today?
Yeah and I hope to have them again
Hello how are you doing Mona
hello mona
I love that red white and blue striped cake w the rose on top. However, the lovely leaves turned into a shiny green mush in front of our eyes. That recipe needs a lil tweeking....
I thought the same thing. It was sad to see the details in the leaves just go away
It was probably caused by the heat generated by the TV lights.
I was watching this lovely prigramme and then realised I was salivating!!!
As a Kiwi i remember afternoon tea in NZ with great nostalgia. The recent passing of HM the Queen, there is a poignant aspect to these recipes.
Well done!
I loves how the Queen treats her staff and she appreciate them and all the hard work they do
she's a Wonderful employer to work for.
What wonderful tips! I love this!
do you know how to bake
Watching from the Philippines. Its really interesting and so delicious to watch.
Elvis Presley & Priscilla’s wedding cake was a yellow sponge cake with Apricot marmalade & marzipan or fondant. So it was very similar. I wonder if that was a common cake back in the early to mid 1900’s?
Everything looking AMAZING!!!!
Eclairs are called Liebesknochen in Germany, what translates to love-bones. And they really looked like bones laying on the table before coated in chocolate.
LOVE BONES!! That's too cute! German is a fun language ❤
Chef is adorable and those pastries look amazing! In fact, all these wonderful pastry chefs are so talented. Such beauty. (I love that fruitcake too!) Love our English cousins. God Save the Queen

I'm a Yank & I love them too !!! queen Elizabeth will always be on the throne to me !!!
When we were stationed in the United Kingdom I loved scones and clotted cream. And all the cakes and pastries, also the fresh baked bread, and their shrimp cocktails with small Northsea shrimp.
Everybody thinks the food in the United Kingdom is awful but it's not their food is a wonderful mix of all the foods of Europe India original kebab foods from all over the world.
Bird bones in a dish of broth
The most popular dish named by Brits is Chicken Tikka Masala.
The fruitcake: Treacle - I had to look it up. It's molasses.
No it’s a separate product. Similar but not the same.
They are similar but different yet both look like liquid sugar death. 😂
www.ragus.co.uk/molasses-treacle-differences/
Treacle is typically a lighter product with less sucrose extracted, and as such is slightly sweeter than molasses, though still features mild bitterness. Significantly, treacle is produced at varying strengths. Treacle is similar to molasses due to its high molasses content, however, the lightest black treacle is actually closer to golden syrup, containing as much as 50% refiners syrup.
The same sugar refining process is followed as molasses, with treacle another by-product of the crystallisation of raw juice. However, the resulting syrup is removed from the boiling process earlier than molasses, affecting how much more sugar remains in the syrup, changing the sweetness, bitterness and viscosity. Treacle is the syrup removed earlier in the process, after the first or second boil, and is then sweetened further with refiners syrup if producing black treacle.
