- You might be among the first in 200 years to lay your eyes upon this dish. This is a tad complicated, and certainly expensive, but wow did it taste good. Let's follow the recipe as it was written in 1830 and see what we get!
Our 2nd Channel! / @frontierpatriot
Pasta was hugely popular in the U.S. in the first half of the 1800s though by this time the very, very poor were probably not eating it as it was considered a "trendy food". The rich and middling class (what we know would call the middle class) however prized pasta. The first pasta factory opened up in the U.S. in Philadelphia in 1798 (no, it wasn't the 1840s like the first Google search result would have you believe). Upper-class Americans also bought pasta imported from Sicily, which they showed off, as pasta was such a hip food you would have impressed your snob friends by having it on the table. Dried pasta has been around since the 12th century, and made it ideal for storage and shipment. Macaroni in the 18th and early 19th centuries did not look like the macaroni of today. Instead it looked more like what we'd now recognize as rigatoni, a hollow & straight noodle cut into short tubes. This is a good article that summarizes it well: www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/1986/07/pasta/306226/ & Thank you for watching! Thank you for being here.
Is there a written out recipe?
마음이 편안해지는 영상이네요. 배경이 동화속에 나올거 같아요 잘보고갑니다.

Justine, Thank You, for this wonderful, enjoyable, channel. I've shown it to quite a number of people as I love it so. The sights, the sounds, and almost the smells... with a cute kitty to top it off!
@@tooprotected Good grief what? She usually has it typed out for today's times measurements. Is there a reason why you are nasty to others?
RAISE YOUR HAND if you want an 1800s fashion show with Ron, Justine & friends! 🥰
This idea is GOLD
@@EarlyAmericanSpecial request for Ron to wear his new wig! 🥰🤣
Wow thats great im from sri lanka

Amazing! Add the chores of washing, soapmaking, weaving, sewing, knitting, baking, and keeping up with the kids, and it's a wonder women had time to sleep!
You forgot churning butter, walking to the store, cutting hair, feeding some animals, gardening, picking vegetables, storing or drying them, milking the cow and goats, 12:36 pumping water, darning socks, picking berries. I'm sure there's more all in the heat or cold.
They probably didn't as their knights were probably busy as well.
Men had a full day too.
What is sleep?
Rather that than be a man in those days
Imagine how hot it would have been in summer in a kitchen like that. Combined with the dresses they wore. My god!
Even a city kitchen was terrible. In Europe in the Balkans most people had summer kitchens outside of the house they slept in.
Most of the houses in the country side had summer kitchens here in Canada. Quite a few people who still own those old houses have turned the summer kitchens into mudroom/laundry and storage areas.
How cool was this!!❤
This appeared in my feed and the food looks lovely! I wanted to comment that I lived off grid in the Ozarks 2009-2019 (by choice). I discovered and usually wore, very long swishy dresses. Not layers but with a lot of sway. Also socks and shoe boots. Compared to others that I spoke with that lived off the grid, it certainly appeared that I had relatively few ticks, chiggers and other nightmare insects that are commonly in the woods. I also had a snake jump out of nowhere (I probably accidentally stepped on it) and it totally missed my legs because of my swishy dress. In my mind, the 10 years that I lived off grid, my maxi swishy dresses were the best attire ever! Because they were very loose, they were cooler then other clothing items. Sending blessings from Grandma Gia in the Ozarks!
I don't think so, they live among a lots of trees, no concrete, no factories or electric appliances, I guess it was fine!!
I love your wordless videos, so relaxing!! I also love all the sounds of cooking that are usually covered by speech; the squishing, creaks, pops, and bubbling. Thank you for this recipe!
Love the videos, hate the squishing noise, it just sets me off! 😮
@@leoniesableblanc 😄
I agree all that normal sounds of a Kitchen are beautiful to me!
💛💛💛
Agree with you, love the kitchen sounds and Mishmish commentaries!
Everything but the squishiessss
It's amazing how your channel has grown... getting close to 1M subscribers. I like to watch your videos because it takes me away from this 2023 "messed up world" to a more simple time that had "values and purpose." That meal look's delicious!
What's amazing is she has worked so hard to lift Rob up when he didn't know much about you tube. Most girl's these days show up at the finish line and latch onto a winner not work hard to get a guy with potential up to speed.
i agree it feels like alot of people want to go back to a simpler time. love the house design and the meals! most definitely a hard working and talented person!
@@rowdybroomstick6394 My mom always did say that behind every successful man is a woman pushing him. When my dad proposed to my mom she asked him to return the ring and exchange it for a cheaper one so that he could use the money to buy textbooks for law school. He graduated and with my mom motivating him at every step ended up retiring as a Colonel.
Would women in 1830 have bought rigatoni for that dish? Wouldn’t they have made their own pasta and how tedious would it be to make rigatoni by hand?
@@EJS1970 rigatoni is most likely the type of macaroni they had back then, probably a bit thicker then you buy today. But elbow macironi was invented 1872 in Switzerland...so not on the market just yet.
The video production, the fire, the noises, the lack of distraction, all add up to when can I move in
What a hearty meal! Delicious 😋
One of the things I absolutely love about this channel is the steps when cooking are intentional. No distractions. Each ingredient is shown and cooked/mixed step by step. It's relaxing to watch and the finished product is beautiful ❤️ Love this! Much love from GA! 🇺🇲
julia jemson
🤤😋
ok I have to ask... do you unintentionally cook? Like.. 'whoops! wasn't paying attention and I made a cake.' ? lol
I was thinking the same thing. Like, I’m not really sure how to explain it, but I know what you mean. It feels like every step is appreciated and slowed down to properly be able to feel it.
I’m not sure if it was intentional on her behalf but it’s something I definitely love about these videos.
Wow! Almost 200 years and nothing much has changed. "Don't fix it if it ain't broke". I make this casserole, with one minor difference (I use the stock pasta water) all the time. It is unbelievably delicious. There are never leftovers. My receipt comes from a French Canadian cookbook from about the same time. The receipt is in French.
@femalism1715 could you please share the recipe you use here with us?
Yes, please! Would you share?
@@tooprotected I'm new! Thank you 🥰
Do you think the original was on the bone because traditional Chicken Fricassee is a cut up chicken still on the bone? And in the recipe it says, "put chicken pieces over it." I like her interpretation and it is in the oven right now, but I still wondered if the original was on the bone. Plus people back then tended to keep chicken on the bone. They liked being able to see what the meat looked like in whole recognizable pieces. Even my father and mother were like that until the 80s or so. I love using shredded chicken. I used to hate that my mother's chicken and dumplings was still on the bone. It didn't seem right to me and still doesn't really.
Yup, I too make this same dish, only in a modern day oven. I didn't know this same dish was made way before my time!
I made this tonight and the whole family loved it! They request that I make it once a month. Thanks for all the wonderful videos and recipes!
🤣🤣🤣 BS
I am totally surprised that pasta was available in 1830! (Especially on the frontier). Thanks for posting!
I too was surprised about the macaroni so I did a little digging. Sure enough it was available. I doubt that frontier women had access to it but the women of means living in the cities probably did.
This looks amazing and I will definitely try it!
She's so graceful. Every frame is a painting, lovely.
OK, who else wants the recipe as Justine made it?? 👋😊💞
Me! But not with macaroni because I didn’t have any so I used tagliatelle. Delicious!
Very nice
She'd need to leave out the mushrooms for me.
Me
Absolutely
Just subscribed! This was so relaxing to watch, and I think that it has NO sounds other than what occurs naturally while you’re moving around. The sounds of the crackling wood, the swish of your long dress and apron, and the other sounds are pure relaxing sounds of a home, where real cooking is done…hearth and home. So comforting, to watch, especially in 2023!
Thank you, and God bless you abundantly always dearly beloved, for sharing your gift with us; I’ve been blessed!
good points...no fridge motor, lights humming, outside truck and car engines...just relaxing sounds of a woman preparing food.
@@kelseymathias3881 Amen to that, dearly beloved
This was so comforting. I lived on hippie communes for three years when I was 16 to 19. I had to learn how to cook on the embers of the fire pit and get the temperature right. I was so excited when a wood stove arrived. I learned how to make perfect loaves of bread but never since. I learned to use different kinds of wood tfor the beginning that burned fast and then oak for the long baking process.
Слов не как,здорово,только слюньки текут глядя на ваши блюда❤
Girl, this casserole looks De-licious and you slaved making it!!🤤I love how you cook directly from the fire-the sounds of the crackling is soooo satisfying!!! 🔥😆
Your kitty is so cute!🐈⬛🐾
Thank you Farrah you'll never gain weight eating this casserole because you burn more calories making it than you do from eating it!
@@EarlyAmerican 🤣😜
Yes, it does. Would work well w/ shredded turkey after Thanksgiving too :)
@@EarlyAmerican haha!! Seriously!! I was thinking that you must have legs of steel from all that squatting!!
I was thinking of slaves making it myself. 1800's ? Yes
Mouthwatering ! I bet my dad would love to try this, he makes great casseroles. We have an old gold miner's cabin built in 1908 in the California Sierras and we have the original dishes and utensils (and much more) that came with the cabin, similar to what you use. My grandparents bought it in the 1920s and we are so lucky to have it. Thanks for another great dish and the setting that takes us back to yesteryear.😸
Love it, Kolohe! My grandparents, Aunts, and Uncles built a cabin on the Mendocino Coast in the early 1920s. No electricity until the 1960s, water was from a well up the hill stored in a redwood tank. The kitchen had a wood-burning stove, and there was a huge fireplace that was also used for cooking and heat. I remember all the iron pots and pans, ceramic crockery, and tools that went with the stove and the fireplace. Constant wood chopping. Kerosene lamps. We'd visit on weekends. Sadly, most of my family are gone, as is the Cabin, but am suddenly having a vivid flashback of my mom poking at fires and hoisting iron kettles while wearing a loud, pastel print polyester outfit with a Bouffant hairdo, circa 1966, lol!
That is so awesome! I would love to have an old cabin like that in my family ❤
@Lotion Man That's so cool. Wish you still had it.. I can see your mom, in style, poking away! 😂 I'm a child of the 60s, 70s and my mom caught our family tent on fire with jiffy pop
@@lotionman2587 That is wonderful that you have such loving memories of your family and the cabin. I am not sure if I remember the days of only kerosene but vividly recall when the hot water heater was attached to the wood-burning stove and we had to take "cabin" showers, which meant we had to turn the water on and off after we lathered up, then rinsed. Brrrrrr!
Love to see your cabin
Comfort food.
Quality food.
Those meals you make are VERY expensive. TODAY.
Id have to disagree. Other than the cream, which I would use cheaper regular milk for, I cook from scratch in a similar style very often and it is much cheaper than buying premade or going out to eat. 🤷🏼♀
@@SoilToSoul we live in different worlds
This looks so good! I love how calm and almost ASMR-like these videos are. So soothing and I always learn a good, simple, hearty recipe to cook!
Mish Mish's words ARE invaluable, he's saying "its done and I want some" 🖤
Justine and Ron, you guys need to do a MishMish compilation video! 🖤
😹 that's my thoughts exactly ❤🐈⬛
My cat perked right up from a sound snooze when MishMash spoke up!
I would love that. I have a black tiny cat named Pooka that looks like Mish Mash, she was watching with me (sleeping on my chest) and perked up at the meowing. I wish she could translate lol.
I admire how people cooked hundreds of years ago, and I wish I had time to do elaborate recipes. If I was a stay at home mom, maybe I would have time for this. There is a southern version of this called "chicken Spaghetti" and it is insanely delicious. Just do a search of it online. Blessings to you all at Early American....makes me appreciate my fore-mothers!
My mom grew up on various farms with no electricity or running water till the 1950's and 1960's. She said they in the 1930's had the wood cook stove for heat and cooking and at some time got a kerosene stove, and they thought they were really cooking in style. She said she remembered chopping wood for the stove and heat before the school bus picked them up for school. In the early 50's they moved to a small ranch house that did have electricity but no indoor plumbing till 1969. Oh, I remember the outhouse well.
At what point do we put it in the microwave?
Yes! There's also a similar dish called chicken and pastry. The pastry is just simple straight cut noodles. My grandmother, born in Missouri, made that a lot. Sometimes she'd make dumplings and use those instead of noodles. Comfort food. Mmmm. Hope you get some time to putter in the kitchen soon. I remember those years as a working mother of 2. Not easy. Bless ya back!
@user-kr4rz5hn4ndon t believe it, 1800 is fun and games till you know what work it takes
When I was a stay at home mama I was too exhausted to cook like this. But now that the kids are grown and gone my husband and I eat much better. Your cooking days are coming, too, Melinda :)
This meal looked delicious!!! 🤤
(I know this will sound strange BUT I ABSOLUTELY LOVED the sound of the pasta being stirred and the sound of the chicken/ham/veggies being placed with the pasta for the casserole!!!)
💜
I love the sound of her cracking eggs.
Ha! I was about to comment that that was the only thing i didn't like in this video. The sound was gross, but it looks delish!
That's ASMR
Haha I had to mute that part 😅
Sounds like the microphone was on high.
Hearing the chickens cluck as you shred their friend's carcass is the most metal thing I've seen all week.
This was very fun to watch. The cook is darling and the black kitten is precious. That casserole looks so very yummy, too! ♥️🧸♥️
The addition of vinegar to the cream, I could imagine, will give a cream cheese-like taste since cream cheese is a bit acidic. Delicious!! And it looks so well-seasoned!
I’m pretty sure the updated version of this is Millionaires Chicken Casserole.
This lady is so charmed and so quiet!! An authentic woman, a perfect house-wife to place her into a home to warm the heart of a truly man.
she is a unicorn in todays world. I would bet 1% of women could do this!
@@Lewisusa11 A man does it on the Townsends channel. Most *people* can do this. They simply don't have the time.
She's a teacher in real life. That's quite a fantasy you males have going of the silent housewife. Glad we don't know you.
@@Lewisusa11 I bet 1 percent of women would find you bearable.
I don't care what you cook, I love history and I would just watch your videos to be able to step back in time, even if it's only for a short time.
Very nice video.
First time here and only because I can't sleep and stumbled upon your video by mistake.
I will be back.
That is totally my type of food! It looks so delicious and I’m sure I gained 5lbs from just watching the video! YUM!!🇨🇦
Yummy 😋😋😋😋 thanks
Why?
Man that looks awesome, and with the cream, butter, and pasta, a pretty nice high calorie meal after a long day of hard 1830s work.
This was my Mother 60 years ago. Thank you for a lovely reminder!!!
Please know the comfort and relaxation your videos bring. Absolutely love them them!
Justine, first off bravo. That looks amazing, I'd eat it, I'm not even a fan of mushrooms but I'd eat them too. Looks hearty and comfortable. I think this may be my new favorite video of yours tbh. Only thing is, so many dishes!!! Good thing Ron is there to wash them. Keep up the amazing work!
Yes Ron and I both work together to get the dishes done after every video I am very grateful.
Dommage que les américains ne cuisinent plus
The mushrooms mask the taste of the bird!
@@marieperruchet1090I cook quite often! 😋
@Marie Perruchet that's a bit of a generalisation!
I love how your egg yolks have the different natural colors. My mother won’t eat the ones with orange yolks, but, I think that they are special and fantastic.
Range free eggs. Tastes way better!
The darker the yolk the healthier diet of the chicken who laid it. I love the dark orange yolks too!
Yellow yolks are the ones with goodness in. Pale ones are more battery hens and ones with less nutrients!
@@leoniesableblanc 🥰 (((❤️))). I will eat a golden yolk any day!!!! I call them “happy eggs”!
@@leoniesableblanc I've always thought so too but I've read that they're basically the same as far as nutrients go. Somehow my brain doesn't take it that way so I'll always prefer the darker yolks, if for no other reason than I know the hen had a better diet and probably a better life too. :-)
I am so glad this showed up in my feed. Now I can start binge watching some of your others.
Long time ago, I cooked for all the volunteers at our local Renaissance faire. Every Valentine’s Day we would have a feast. We would cook food from 15th century cookbooks ( often had to order unusual spices). We would play medieval music and dance medieval and Renaissance dances, wear medieval clothing. It was so much fun.
Looks like that rooster's days of attacking people have come to an abrupt end!
I was thinking the same thing! 🤣 😂 🐓
😂😂😂
I usually don't like videos without talking, but you do it well in a way that works and honestly is better without it. This looks delicious.
when the spokesman bit popped up my initial thought was "oh no, my precious silence" but instead it was a cat which immediately makes everything better
I actually love videos without talking. Kitty cats excluded 😀
that's literally the magic of these videos. her actions speak more volume than any words could.
Man I’m considered to be a picky eater and I struggle with trying a lot of new things but I swear I think I’d eat almost anything this woman makes
I enjoy watching you cook in every video, but this is the one that is inspiring me to try it myself! This looks so good it's ridiculous.🤤
The casserole looks amazing, and I approve of what His Royal Highness Prince Mish Mish said. He is adorable❤️🐱.
Thank you, Justine, for the recipe.
First, that looks effing great. I'm definitely going to try that in my NOT1830 kitchen. Second, Mish Mish is the healthiest looking cat. You are doing something awesome there.
Just happened on Early American as I was looking for another recipe. How fascinating, I love the history you present. Look forward to trying the chicken casserole! Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge of the past with those of us who are interested in "the way it used to be". Anxious to see other recipes.
I just want to say , I’ve been watching your show for a long time , this is the first I’ve been able to comment because I normally watch on my tv after work lol , it’s so interesting to see how things were made back then . It may have taken more time to make but without a doubt, I’m sure it tasted way better than anything today ! Thank you for showing us a better way of life
You never stop surprising me with the different receipts that you find. I also love you new spokesman !
I love that cat
Well as a child I remember my grandmother with her wood burning cooking stove: doing the wash at river with a washboard, a paddle board and rock, roasting coffee and pounding it fine on a big mortar: she also buttered the milk, plus made her own sausages : cooked a complete dinner for Grandpa, 12 children and any other friends at the table. This was before and after I was born. She lived to ❤ 98yrs: many went to her funeral: for all the good she did for her neighbors.
I love watching you cook from the old ways!! it is interesting to see how it was done so long ago! I love the sights and sounds of you cooking it is really awesome! Thanks for sharing all your historic recipes!
Looks delicious. I'm always a big fan of dishes with pasta in them! As a cook today, I often buy rotisserie chickens at the store, so this dish could be replicated easily without the bother of baking a whole chicken. I also think the addition of some sour cream would be mighty good too. I know my Mamaw, who was a housewife and mother of 8 back in the late 1800s to 1954, made her own sour cream and even cottage cheese. So if a lady back then had her own milk cow, she probably made her own sour cream too. Thanks for this recipe and demonstration. I just happen to find the channel. Hope there are more recipes and cooking ideas!
I believe in those days what we would call sour cream was called clabbard milk. Not everyone thought it was a delicacy.
It is so interesting. In the past the chickens were usually tough as few could afford to slaughter a Spring chicken for an everyday dinner. Thus the chicken is thrice cooked if you didn't notice and yet still delicious. I usually sous vide my chicken and add it to my recipes at the last minute but recently I made a terrible mistake and cooked the chicken breast on 210 F (steam oven) for an hour instead of 145F. I was panicked but I did what she did here (and my mother told me her grandmother did); I shredded the chicken to smithereens and cooked it a more. I had little hope, but it was delicious. It looks insane to cook chicken that long but it does eventually go past tough to tender all over again. I am making this recipe. Thank you for sharing it and the visuals were wonderful too. :))
They were also smaller than the grotesque animals of factory farming, where they’re so large they can barely walk or support the weight of their bodies. Sad
Very true! Chickens were too valuable to eat for the common person. It was only when they got too old and stopped laying eggs is when they were eaten. Pastry was invented to preserve food dishes, and often not eaten.
I roast a well seasoned 4 or 5 pound chicken, whole, in a 400F oven. In a cast iron pan. Takes about 1 hour 45 minutes to produce a succulent roast chicken that I quarter and freeze in parts. You can defrost and shred, grate, slice, whatever, when you want to use some chicken in a dish. Very useful when cooking for 1.
@kkaradin Yes. Which reminds me of a vintage joke: One man asks another if he'd like to buy a henway. A really nice, fully functional henway. The other man asks: "What's a henway?" The first man replies: "Oh, 3 or 4 pounds." I didn't say it was a GOOD joke. Just very silly. Cheers.
You find it to be very economical no doubt? We mostly buy chicken breast but I buy thighs once in a while for certain dishes, like chicken and dumplings, lemon chicken soup, and also when I made this dish. You know the kind of dishes which lose all flavor if prepared with boneless, skinless chicken breast? Do you buy a i.e fryer or roaster? The fryers are better priced but not as delicious as they are the ones so fat they can't stand up which is sad. I should try it your way. I have a humidity control oven and it is great for roasting meats. I also have a green egg and once had a turkey made in one and it was the best roasted turkey I have ever eaten. Mine is too small for a turkey (should have gotten a bigger one) but a chicken would fit well.
Girl you are playing Little House on the Prairie for real real 😮 God love ya ❤
I used to collect vintage kitchenware and I saw some good stuff in the kitchen!
That casserole looks perfect!
That looks SO GOOD! Easy enough to make for a Church supper with lots to share. Im thinking the dish it came in would go home clean haha. (The highest compliment at a Baptist supper lol!)
Easy enough???!! What??!!!
@@lindsaybc2192 sure! The hardest part would be preparing the chicken and you can cheat and buy one precooked at most grocery stores.
@@WaiferThyme haha it looked like so many steps! So many ingredients! Delicious, though! I'm definitely planning on making it.
My father cooked us this because I wanted to try it but was slammed at work. SO GOOD. Very filling as well, and it reheats even tastier than it was the first night. We probably should’ve use ground cloves instead of whole, but it was still great. 8.5/10 recipe, and the portions are great for a big family
wow that is so sweet to have family make something that you mention while knowing you’re hard at work 😭 I strive to have a family life like this! 🫶🏻💓
We’ll understand how precious these old recipes are when the grid is down and we’ll have to cook by the fireside again. This is really delicious.
Hi Justine ! I continue to LOVE your cooking videos ! The chicken casserole dish made my mouth water. One of the things I always enjoy in your presentations is how you momentarily display each ingredient before you add it. In this particular video it was a beautiful display at the start with ALL the ingredients. Well Done !!!
This meal looks divine! I haven’t had a hot meal in a week, so I’ll be dreaming of this tonight. 😋 I love your videos, they are so relaxing and they help me to sleep better. Thank you. 🙏
One of the best casseroles recipes I’ve ever seen….👌🏾🤤
You did it again! I just ate. I watched this recipe, and now I’m getting hungry again! It sure looks scrumptious!
The noodle and chicken dish looks very yummy! And MishMish is adorable! I love these videos.
Wow, Justine! Now that's down home cooking at it's finest. Looks too good for words. See you and MishMish soon. Be blessed always! xoxo
When you pulled out your magic wand to stir the chicken, I smiled.
Your sound effects are perfect and the makings and preparation of this dish sounded delicious. Quite enjoyable!
That is an interesting recipe. But the final dish did look very hearty and tasty. And, of course, MishMish is an excellent spokes-cat.
That dish looks delicious. Thank you so much for all your informative and entertaining videos.
Cozy video thank you love it
Justine is such a kind soul and wonderful cook.
And I thought casseroles were a 1950's thing! Your dish sure would beat anything my aunts concocted.
The recipe looks delicious. I love the old-fashioned way of cooking over a fire . The traditional cooking methods are timeless. A slower way of life.
Having cooked a little in fireplaces, and a lot on wood stoves, I can tell you that keeping your fire going adds to the overall work a lot. But you learn to use what you have.
I can't wait to try this! The addition of cloves loves looks fantastic.
Thank you for an excellent video! Well done!
Awww, I speak fluent Cat, and Mish Mish says you guys are the best and most wonderful owners he could ever hope for, and I agree! Plus, I think this may be my favorite dish of yours yet! Can't wait for the chew & chat for this one!
That's sweet...I too speak fluent "cat" and I heard the same remark from MishMish!🥰 Even my cat Danny watch the whole video and he was in agreement! So I might just have to make this delicious casserole. I wonder what the bit if vinegar did? Bet if you added sour cream instead it would be tasty!
That casserole looks heavenly-I'm drooling!
That was fantastic 👏 thank you for sharing 😊
What a hearty feast! Just the thing to fill the stomach after a long day in the fields.
I can only imagine the expense of this meal back then, but certainly looks delicious enough and not out of place for now as well. I would love to make this, thanks for showing us. Clean up must have been a bear 😬
It is certainly an expensive dish! It was too interesting to not recreate. I had to try it. Thank you for watching ^_^
@@EarlyAmerican Yes I was thinking it must have been created for a cook in a townhouse or even a plantation kitchen with maybe a scullery maid for the dishwashing, not the housewife or the farm wife who's just come in from gathering eggs after churning the butter. This was kind of a presentation dish. Not too fancy but not such plain cooking!
Chicken, ham, eggs, cheeses, and cream, an expensive dish.
Probably in those days they kept their own livestock/chickens/pigs?? Just a thought 🤔
Wrong. Everything in this meal could be raised or foraged. In those times food was only expensive if it had to be store bought. If you didn't farm the wheat for flour, you bought it in barrels and stored it. You grew chickens, and got eggs too. You had a cow or two, and got milk, butter, cream, and cheese. Mushrooms could be foraged and dried. Spices could be foraged or grown. This was not an expensive meal. If it was, pioneers would have starved.
The casserole looks incredible and MishMish is such a little sweetie!! Looks like he may want a bite.
maybe he got to lick the big frying pan!
How delicious and heart lovingly prepared , but I was expecting her to sit down around a table with her family.
The first southern casserole! yum!
It's insane that when I subscribed, you were at around 5k subscribers, and I've watched your channel grow to over 900k. Here's to many, many more! ♥
Well said, Zenaida!!!!
This is such a relaxing channel. I watch your videos before bed, I couldn't ask for anything better!
Girl, this casserole looks De-licious and you slaved making it!!I love how you cook directly from the fire-the sounds of the crackling is soooo satisfying!!!
Your kitty is so cute!
Beautiful cooking and recipes!
Oh Justine, I love how embrace cooking on the hearth with your period correct utensils. You make every receipt look delicious and add the "love" ingredient. Truly beautiful videography and seeing all the ingredients arrayed beforehand is very helpful. I appreciate all the effort you put into making this dish. I'm going to make it very soon. A Yummy ASMR!
This has all the elements of my Mom's Chicken [or Turkey] Tetrazzini. She used common spaghetti for the pasta, no ham, and cut the fowl meat into chunks. Typical of 1950s America, a can of Campbell's Cream of Chicken or Mushroom soup was added for convenience instead of all the working with eggs, cream and flour. Shredded cheese and breadcrumb topping I recognize.
I remember reading a Chicken Fricassee recipe from the Pre-Revolutionary or Colonial period, involving whole pieces of chicken in a cream sauce that was baked until the bones were crunchy but edible. It was in a history book from high school.
I love her kitchen and all that is in it and her
…I would have never thought that they had noodles like that back then …?! 💚
Hi Justine, I am so glad to see your healthy and chickens in their yard and I also love your gorgeous cat. I also like your new dress, that colour is so pretty on you. Loved your recipe, thank you. Could you please show more of your cat? I love your cat, it is so affectionate.
Thanks, Carole from New Zealand.
Looks delicious! Thanks for sharing, Justine. Will definitely give this a try. Mish Mish looks as fitting in the cabin and 18th century as you and Ron do! 😉
Wow, back in time. Awesome and simple.
I could live in that kitchen❤ I have my great grandmother’s cast iron pans (from late 1800’s). I use them all the time and they still have carbon deposits from the wood stove. Wonderful video!! Mish Mish. ❤️😻
This looked so good. I love watching how they prepared dishes in the 1800s
I have that same blue patterned bowl, had it for many years now and picked it up at a dollar store back in the day. The chicken looks delicious!
I have a real antique blue and white spongeware bowl like the one in the video.
Awww, your mishmish makes me miss my girl. She passed away this past June and I miss her terribly. She looked just like Mishmish.

We take so much for granted , like our ovens , sinks, dishwasher, soap, utensils. It must have been a huge job preparing meals like this. Looks delicious too.
Wow. I felt like I was living a long time ago. That video was well done. I really like the way you are living. The food looked great and hats off to your sponsor.
