One of the things you should absolutely try making is Clotted Cream. It is an English delicacy and really hard to get in the US because it isnt made commercially and it is expensive to import. It is made with raw milk and it is SO good. People get it confused with whipped cream, but it isnt the same thing and it tastes very different. It can absolutely be used in savoury dishes, but the best things to have it with are fresh strawberries, or with a cream tea (fresh scones, jam, and clotted cream). It can take a long time to make because it is all about the separation and a slow cooling process, but it is so worth it. There are methods on the internet of how to make it. Love the video by the way. Would love to see more kitchen videos, even if it is just you making dinner
Yum clotted cream on scone with jam.🙂
Clotted cream is sooo lovely
I second.. or maybe fourth this suggestion! Hahaha As an American we are definitely missing out!!
Great suggestion! I’d love to try! Or maybe I should just take a trip and enjoy the fine dining other places have to offer! I would literally just travel to experience the food!
My sister has made clotted cream and scones (like a biscuit but sweet) and raspberry jam! It’s TO DIE FOR! So delicious! I could eat the clotted cream alone with a spoon 😂.
Definitely give it a try. Oh and she adds crasins in the scones which add a wonderful bit of tartness to counterbalance the sweet jam. 👌🏻👍🏻🫶🏻
I have 13 children and we go through milk like crazy…your living my dream life there in your little farm with your sweet animals 😊
I love homemade yogurt too! Congratulations on finishing the cleanse, I pray God blesses y’all abundantly ❤️
I love raw milk and I love that you explain EVERYTHING from what to make with it, to what to do with what's spoiled. You guys are awesome! Would love to see more kitchen videos!! 🤗
💯 enjoyed that too!
@@mikaf8516 Feel free to check out some cooking on my lifestyle and freedom channel 😊 in Poland 🇵🇱!
Thank you for the video. I started my garden this year and my plan was to make everything I possibly can at home from scratch. I recently found a local dairy farmer that sells raw milk and now I can also make my own dairy products. I’m so excited and needed tips thank you.
Hello Alex, I would love it if you did a full walk through from picking your wheat berries, grinding, and making the different recipes using your sourdough starter, including your everyday bread. ❤
Alex I LOVE all of the homemade stuff you make at home. Could you please add the recipe to your vlog or do a recipe book with all that you make with tips for seasons?? Also, with what you get from leftovers from recipes like buttermilk and clabber. Love to you and Phil and your family!!!❤❤
I love this idea. Yes. We would absolutely love to make a recipe book. We just need to find the time to put it all together
A cookbook is a great idea.. it could pay for your ivf treatments.
I would love to see more on the grain process, where to start on my own mill and the best grain to get etc. I have been raised on a farm with so many of these things as a part of my life but not the grain side.
I love this, Alex. Would love to see more recipes and processes so we get the details, as there is much I would love to try making.
Wow, you are so inspiring, Alex!! I believe I said a version of this last time. It's so true, thanks so much, God Bless you all
You should get a cream separator machine. Since you get so much milk, it will save you a lot of time. Also, with hard-cheeses, 1g of milk equals roughly 1 lb of cheese. I make 3lb cheese wheels. I use an Amish press with a gallon jug of water for the weights. Just make sure you're using stainless steel pots to heat the milk and add rennet. I used a beverage(wine) fridge and set the temp to the highest setting, which is around 52 degrees, the ideal temp to age your hard and semi-hard cheeses. Just find one that doesn't have the wine racks and just has the wire grills. The pigs and chickens will LOVE the remaining whey, even after you make ricotta from left over whey. It's so delicious! Also, to keep your butter longer, get a butter dish that inverts into a pool of water, so air doesn't get to it. It will last so much longer! Also, make some squeaky cheese for the kids. My kids went nuts for it!.
I recently used the buttermilk from when I made butter for a mac and cheese sauce (the recipe is on Pinterest). It was SO good and our kiddos devoured it.
I’m so glad I found your channel! What a beautiful life you live. I grew up Amish, this reminds me so much of home!!
You look like you have so much fun while making all this stuff! Really makes me want to start making stuff from scratch!
Butter tastes so much better homemade
Remember you can flavor your butter too. Garlic. Herbs. Sweet butter.
You can freeze it and bring it to friends houses or as gifts.
When I had opportunity to get raw milk from the farm it was the best. My grandma had a cow long time ago back in Russia and that milk and home made butter on fresh bread with homemade jam on top and full glass of milk was sooo good! I usually make ricotta cheese from the extra milk I get and freeze it if I have a lot. Then there's so many recipes that you can use it with homemade ricotta cheese. I like it better homemade then store bought.
Yes please more videos about how you nourish your fertility and all the homestead content you can come up with I will watch.
Awe thank you Jessica for your love and support! I hope to continue to share!
@Jessica, blessings from Poland 🇵🇱 and my little channel!
I have found that if you let your cream come to room temperature, ( I will use the stove to warm it up quickly,) it will form the butter alot faster.
I love learning from you. Homesteading is what we want to eventually. We would love to be self-sufficient.
I love this video Alex 😊❤ please share more of this kind of info on milk and jersey cows ❤
You can use the buttermilk after you make butter to make tortillas as a replacement for water, or even naan. It makes for a soft supple dough and really moist and light naan. ❤your family and all you guys share!!!
I love this idea! Phillip makes naan so I’ll see if he’ll try this. Great suggestion!
You can use buttermilk to soak your chicken pcs too overnight. It makes them better.
Thank you for the discount code! I so needed a suggestion for pre/pro biotics. ❤
Buttermilk can be used for milk substitute in xooking. They suggest adding baking soda. Since your milk is raw is it not naturally fermented?
I'm really empressed. My husband's grandma would make her own cottage at first it freaked me out. But your right a lot of our generation has lost a huge fundamental cooking lessons or to be honest, turned their nose up and belly ached about the work it takes or the process in which said products are made. The great quote should be 'if they only knew'.
I would love the recipes for your bread. Do you have them somewhere? ❤😊❤😊
Thank you
Mr & Mrs. James Bond.
Hubby loves your videos too
You can always make a ton of butter and then when ready, make ghee and can it.
Hi there! Just wondering why you don’t use a cream separator? I hear they work wonders!
When is the rest of the video coming...interesting in the other products from milk. Doing butter already, but want to make other stuff. Thanks
Welcome back ❤
I absolutely love watching your videos. You guys are such a beautiful family. You make me feel good.
Do you have to do anything with the milk to "purify" it prior to drinking it? Sorry. Brand new with all this. Thank you so much for sharing!!
love the in the kitchen vlog!!!! please do more!!
You can also make cuajada or fresh cheese that they make in central America. If you have rennet you just add rennet to freah out of the cow milk and let it set up. After its set you cut it and let it separate from the whey awhile. Then you strain out the whey. My sister in law dumps it into a cheesecloth bag and hangs it up so the whey drains. After the whey is out you salt it and put into a container/mold and refrigerate. Slice and serve with rice and beans and fresh tortillas 🤤🤤🤤
what an inspiration you are! so fun to watch this... i have an honest question, what does the calf get to eat when you take all this milk? why does the cow produce so much milk?
you would probably love a freeze dryer you can freeze dray so many things that you grow and when you are wanting for you cow to freshen you can drink freeze dried milk it’s awesome we love ours!
This was very interesting, but how do you consume all that dairy produce? Do you sell it?
I just found your you tube video. I am wanting to make a cheese press like yours. Could you please post detailed plans for how to make one. Thank you so much.
I remember watching a video of Alex making bone broth in the condo. I'd love a homestead updated version of bone broth, but specifically how to get it to gel? I never get that part correctly.
Hi. We had a Jersey but found the milk just too creamy. She was old and became barren and eventually a non milking lawn mower. We now have a cross breed that gives us about 4 litres a day plus feeding the calf. I am thinking of making butter with the cream off the tubs of milk we have in the fridge. The oldest tub is about a week old. Smelling it you can tell it has lost its fresh sweet smell you get on warm just milked milk and smells more 'bland' and when you taste it you can taste the very very beginnings of a slightest yoghurt taste. I am wondering if that is still ok to skim off the cream for butter? I would use some of the skimmed off milk for yoghurt but that can come from the newer tubs.
What is the shelf-life for your dairy products with raw milk?
Alex, you are amazing! I love watching you and your family. ❤
I love love love this video. Thank you much for sharing
We let our cream get room temp then shake in a Mason jar then strain rinse add salt form pat dry put in fridge
Your bread!!!!!! Perfect that sound. I wish I had some.
The heavy cream probably makes the best Alfredo sauce which I love.
The butter on the bread is probably the bomb!
And I would love the buttermilk and yogurt from it also.
I wish I was your neighbor literally.
Definitely need to share but what a blessing
This was awesome. Loved it. Thanks Phil for helping so we could see :)
I was raised on raw milk I am turning 80 in a few months. I have been healthy and I think if more people drank raw milk there would be healthier people.
Hi Alex your skin looks magnificent brilliant job ever 💗💖💗💖 thanks heaps from Ronnie 👍😃👍😃 from Geelong VIC Australia.
You could send some of that homegrown and homemade goodness to me! You guys are such a sweet and wonderful family and I look for your videos first. LOVE and PRAYERS ALWAYS from Gainesville Florida.❤🙏😊🙏❤🐏🐖🐮🐕🐔🍓
I just love raw milk Kefir. It makes me sleep very deeply. I add a teaspoon of honey. It has so many health benefits. I envy your lifestyle. Thanks for the video.
Question! I can buy raw milk in my state. The Problem is I want to make cultured butter and one gal of raw milk only makes so much cream. Is it safe to buy "Heavy whipping cream" at Kroger's and combine it with the cream from the raw milk to make the cultured butter quantity I want?
I have a UA-cam video called "How to make Cultured Butter easily. "
I would so appreciate it if you would let me know if it's safe to culture raw cream and store bought pasteurized heavy whipping cream together. Do I need A culture of plain Greek Yogurt to add to this mixer of the two types of cream?
I love having raw milk to make my yogurt and cheeses. I like letting it sit out and sour for 24 hours and the strain it and add salt. It is a great homemade cottage cheese that is so delicious.
Can barter with extra milk
Oh my goodness that looks beautiful ❤. I wish I could find that in Canada
I love watching you make stuff in the kitchen it looks brilliant thank heaps from Ronnie 👍😃👍😃 from Geelong VIC Australia.
Yay! I’m glad you like it Ronnie!
@@PhilandAlex your welcome l love watching your videos you and Phil and the girls are magnificent family ever ❤️💗
@@PhilandAlex you have made my day answering my text thanks heaps 👍😃👍😃
Get a freeze dryer and start putting your milk , butter ect in there
Could you do a specific video on tips, tricks, etc on raising chickens? We have 24 3 week old chickens and are kind of learning as we go! Would love to know things to avoid and things helpful things you have learned along the way.
We would love to put together a professional class. It’s on our list this spring. We hope to get to it!
I’m interested if you have room for herd share. I’m in Middle TN also.
I really enjoyed content like this! Would love to see more ❤
Would love to hear your thoughts in a video of oils versus lard.
Seed oils need to leave our diet…but they’re in everything! We try to cook from scratch mainly to try and avoid the synthetic oils. We will have the occasional olive oil and avocado oil but even that we try to minimize.
Are you all on well water?
Excellent video! So much good information! 👏 👏 👏
Make ice cream! Lots of farms in Belgium make it and they sale a lot!
And butter too Sourdough. 😊
Thank you ❤
Thanks alex! You make it seem possible to do😍
Love info video!!!👍😊🙏🏼 I would love to see how you make kombucha !🙏🏼
Oh super easy! Yes I’ll try and do that
I want know how make yogurt?
My goodness this all looks amazing and all fresh from your beautiful Daisy,🙏💗💗💗💗💙
Sour milk is great for making cottage cheese or as we call it in Poland "twarog".
You can make your ice cream I use an electric ice cream maker & I was a Tupperware dealer so I had pint, quart, 1/2 gal, 1 gal. Containers up the wahoo.
With time I realize that if I used ziplock or seal a meals to start storing foods that I used put in containers by laying the bags flat after all the air is squeezed all the air & seal. Once you have the recipe you like only thing you change are the vanilla, almond & all kinds of syrups. Then your fruits peach, banana with or with out chocolate, cookies & cream, peanut butter & chocolate, I used to use a marker & reuse most of the ziplock bags too. I made a cream pies & froze them after I pulled them out of the pie pans once that was done. I always made double batches of lasagna a freeze them. I learned how to make large batches of stuff peppers, stuff cabbage rolls I'd put 2 in a smaller bag & made a bunch of bags for a family meal. I buy turkey breast when on sale to make pot pies single serving size & family meal size.
You can freeze butter & cheese. Bread. Pudding to. I learned with kids your feeding or more friend at dinner. Or family friends call & you have invited come over. Meal & dessert in your freezer.
Tell us more about your different ball jars and why the lids are plastic and not metal!😊🙏🏼
I’m not sure. That is just how they come. I appreciate it though because they don’t rust
How do you make cottage cheese?
Can you dehydrate the milk and make your own powered milk?
A freeze dryer is best…it’s just a big purchase.
Loving this content!
Question- How long can you milk your cow for? Also do you need to rest her for a while before you get her with calf again. And if you do that, where will you get your milk? Sorry for all the questions!
R cows look more like Guernsey than Jersey. Are they a mixed breed?
Why do you wash the milk ? Xx
If that is hard cheese seal with paraffin wax. That should work to keep it air tight and will keep the bacteria out! And food safe! They use it on cheese anyways! You should be good to go! Just drop in the holes no problem l!
What were you 'cleanse'-ing??
I would love to see you tackle making Parmesan cheese, it takes about a year to cure it!
My question is how many gallons do you use for drinking?
Great question. Maybe a gallon. I use a lot on my coffee, we allow cereal for treats sometimes and then the kids will sometimes ask for milk to drink (but not every day)
You might consider posting someplace in the community and selling for animal consumption . Here some people are desperate to have a good source of raw milk that isn't 12.00 a gallon
Do zt have 😮😮p😢
You are awesome, I love love love watching all what you do. 💞🇬🇧💞
You can get yourself a freeze dryer make powdered milk and freeze dry cheese and yogurt for long term storage
Yes that would be a dream one day! That kind of big purchase will just have to wait for now.
Have you tried making cottage cheese?
Don’t try to make sourdough while making cheese. The curds won’t separate from the whey. Ask me how I know. 😂
Our jersey gives us about 15 gallons a week as well.
Can you sell any of the milk or products?
When you say buttercup is no longer in milk does that mean not living like passed away I didnt understand what that meant and you said it a couple tomes
Maybe since she wouldn’t be feeding her calf her milk supply will dry up like when a human mom stops breastfeeding her baby.
I have tried several times to make sour dough. Can't seem to stay up on it
You can make mozzarella cheese., so good.
You guys should make a pizza oven to use your mozza
Is there a possibility that you could have Celiac disease or gluten intolerance?
I’ve been tested and in the past I have come back very high with a gluten intolerance. However, with the research I’ve done, I’ve seen people heal from those intolerances. I no longer than the reactions I used to.
What about kifer milk.
I would eat pudding for breakfast, lunch and dinner
Don’t your neighbors need milk? Or do they all have cows of their own? Thanks for another great video.
I can buy raw milk right down the road from me from a farmer but I’m so afraid to for some reason!
The stuff you make from the milk you could make gift baskets and give them to your families. Bet they would love to get your food and other things as gifts. Or even make some baskets and give them to new mothers you know. Save them lots of money and it’s made with love.
Do you still have Wesley?
We do. We are getting ready to sell him though 😢
Start a small herd share!!
