  • Hello, everyone! In this episode I'm preparing an Autumn Afternoon Tea. Please join me as I light a fire, assemble sandwiches, and bake some delicious Gingersnap Cookies!

    Gingersnap Cookies
    Ingredients for about 45 2-inch-diameter cookies
    Make-ahead note: The cookie dough can be formed and frozen. Bake it off at your leisure!
    The dry ingredients:
    1 2/3 cups (236g) all-purpose flour
    1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    2 1/4 teaspoons ground ginger
    1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
    A pinch (about 1/4 teaspoon) black pepper
    The wet ingredients:
    1/2 cup (113g) salted or unsalted butter, melted
    1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
    1/4 cup (50g)
    The yolk from a large egg
    1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
    2 tablespoons unsulphured molasses
    2 tablespoons whole milk
    For coating the cookies:
    1/2 cup granulated sugar -- put this in a zip-lock bag
    Preheat the oven to 315°F (157°C).
    In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients.
    In a large bowl, beat together the wet ingredients with a spatula.
    Add half of the dry mixture to the wet, and stir with a spatula to combine. Then stir in the remaining dry mixture. The dough should be quite stiff.
    Form teaspoon-size cookies (a 1-inch-diameter cookie scoop is helpful here), roll them into balls, and put them, 6-7 at a time, in the bag of sugar. Shake the bag to insure the dough balls are coated. Then arrange the balls 2 inches apart on parchment-lined baking sheets (15 balls per baking sheet).
    Bake in the preheated oven until the balls of dough flatten, and their outer edge turns crisp -- 18-20 minutes. For cookies that are crisp throughout, bake for 20-22 minutes.
    Transfer the cookies to wire racks to cool. Cookies will continue to crisp as they cool to room temperature.

    I am new to your channel - came across it "by accident". I am so happy the algorithm found it for me. In this crazy world of vicious gossips and on line hatred, your channel brings peace and beauty to the everyday life. Thank you for creating this beautiful world for us. I am going to try your baking recipes - they are all elegant, yet not too complex for a lazy baker like me! Greetings from Alberta, 🇨🇦

    How absolutely lovely to 'share' your afternoon tea with your friends (meaning all of your viewers, etc).
    I so enjoyed this video with you.
    Right now, I'm in hospital recovering from abdominal surgery. For months, I've not been able to eat ANY food.
    So, I have to live through the eyes and taste buds of those, such as yourself, who can entertain me with all of the delicious things you make. And your ever pleasant personality.
    I 'will' be able to return to eating real food, once recovered, and believe me, I'll go home with plans to make many of your decadent recipes!
    You give me so much to look forward to!
    Thank you, Kevin, for all that you do. Maybe you, being of humble nature, don't realize how much it means to many people, who get so much pleasure from your videos!
    Thank you, again!
    Cheers,
    from Judy

    Well hello Kevin Lee. Thank you for inviting us in for an afternoon tea. Everything is a treat for the eyes. The recipe is much appreciated. The cardamom, ginger, and pepper has me in the mood for some masala chai. The very first day of fall in Ohio close to Lake Erie it went from 90 f for a high to highs in the low 60's the next day. This morning there was a bit of frost. The store you went to is an amazing place. I've never seen cranberries with sugar and pectin in a jar before (except for jelly & jam). I will be on the hunt for that. I wanted to taste everything in your presentation. My favorite color is blue (beautiful china). Nice touch lighting the fireplace. This video is perfection.

    I add a bit of dry curry powder to my egg salad and it’s delicious, my mother used to make this for us when we were children and l am now in my sixties and everyone now asks me to bring these sandwiches to social gatherings and work events.

      @@janettemasiello5560 it’s really to taste , for two eggs perhaps start with a 1/4 teaspoon, you could taste as you go and add more if you want a stronger taste. l use a brand called ‘ Clive of India’ it’s the same brand my mother used , it’s a nice mild curry powder and has a good savoury flavour. Hope you enjoy.

    OMG!! Kevin you have taken me back to my childhood! So cosy with your warm, glowing, roaring open fire! All my relatives of that era have passed, but you have brought them back to life again as I watched you preparing this delicious afternoon, Autumn Tea. I remember making sandwiches and preparing other delights, like Trifle, Jelly, savoury nibbles etc. It was great fun as a child. It's so healing watching you and being in your company 💞!
    I am watching from across the pond where we are having 'monsoon' rain storms this Autumn. I also have had a leaking roof, which started again in September. It has taken months to get it sorted through the Housing Association. So you have also provided me with solace through the storms!.
    I enjoyed your overnight trip to Manchester as well with 'Mr Fox'. It's great to travel with you and view your part of the world!
    I keep fit like you every day, but prefer cycling on a flat level or downhill, as I have arthritic knee injuries. I also swim in the sea in a wetsuit once a week, as I find it helps the Fibromyalgia. Some of us are still living 'cautiously', due to the risk of catching Covid and one can sometimes feel a bit isolated in this stressful world. I have my Faith, Yoga Meditation and learning new things, such as your fun and interesting cookery demonstrations. So I think the Internet has had some positive advantages in that we can connect so easily and 'magically' with others around the Globe including your warm and delightful self Kevin. So thank you so much 💕😌 for your very interesting videos and your enjoyable and relaxing company 😊 X Mary

    I know some people don't like tea bag tea, but Constant Comment is good stuff for fall & winter. There is also a loose tea called Iron Goddess of Mercy! Those gingersnaps would make great sandwich cookies with a cream cheese filling!! Or apple butter filling!! (Ooh, I'm hungry!)

      My mother always had Constant Comment in our house when I was growing up. I remember the tin (in the 1970s) stated "No milk, please." A very good tea!

    Hello Kevin and Thank You for the lovely invite to take tea with you. I am now a major advocate of afternoon tea and love making tea sandwiches. I made your recipe for Pain Mie and it is the best for the sandwiches. Beautiful crumb and flavour. Yesterday was my Friday Tea Day with some neighbours. In addition to the sandwiches (egg and relish - triangles, tuna and sweet mustard mayo with celery - small squares, and cream cheese with chèvre, roasted red pepper and black olive - rolled), we enjoyed mini toasted-almond frosted carrot cakes. It was all delicious and the 'new' bread drew enthusiastic comments.
    I knew the minute you presented these spice cookies that I will be making quite a few very soon to give as Thanksgiving 'from my kitchen to your's' gifts. The addition of cardamom is really different and will add mystery to the flavour. I think I'll tuck a few bags of cardamom tea in with the gift pack.
    Thank You for adding flavour and spice and an appreciation for good and simple foods, to my life.
    I wish you and Mr. Fox an enjoyable Fall (the best season !) and a very Happy Thanksgiving. Here in Canada, ours will be next weekend. Can't wait. I have white pumpkins to play with this week and hopefully will turn them into satiny tarts for our special Turkey meal.
    This Thanksgiving, I give special thanks to you for the special kindness, thoughts, love, time, expense and effort you generously gift year after year, to your A Garden for the House community. Thank You so much. XO❤XO❤XO❤XO❤

    Although I live in Michigan, I grew up in the Hudson Valley of upstate New York. I was born in Poughkeepsie, went to school in Wappingers and Fishkill and also lived in Poughkeepsie and Pleasant Valley. Wow it sure is a small world lol I love this recipe thank you. Autum is my favorite season. I remember growing up and my father taking myself and my family for what we call color tours. I love enjoying the wonderful leaf colors of fall.

      @wells martin Hello Wells, I live in Battle Creek Mi. I am married and have three grown children and three grandchildren. I am originally from New York, but after visiting Mi. I met my husband, and we moved here where he is from. I am a Christian lady and enjoy making new friends. I would love to hear more about where your originally from and how it was that you came to live in Detroit. You're not very far from me. I have always wanted to visit France, but I do not speak French so might feel out of place there.

    Another super video, Kevin. Like you, I love Autumn and hunkering down, ready for the Christmas panic, but first, some gorgeous comfort foods and lashings of tea in front of a roaring fire [not that I have one but the image is great!]. I'm not keen on horseradish so you said not to make beef sandwiches in that case - I just substitute the horseradish with red onion finely chopped. Delicious! Your Parlour is so cosy and it's great spending quality time with you. Thank you again. I love your relaxed and comfortable videos so much.

    The cookie size is perfect and the freezing idea is genius. Love to bake four small cookies at a time for immediate consumption, but have always bought pillsbury in a roll store bought cookies and just cut off a hunk. Freezing already sized cookies is really appealing.

    Tea with gingersnap cookies sounds delicious. I have only eaten gingersnap cookies that come in a box. I bet these, freshly made at home taste a lot better. I am binge watching your videos from September to now, November. There are so many good ideas for food for the fall and winter season. Fall is not my favorite season as I dislike all the trees loosing their leaves and everything dying. My favorite season is spring.

  • @cherylcentenioblessedvirgi3241

    I love the Autumn Season very much. My favorite is the Winter Season.
