The words have not been invented yet to describe how delicious these mushroom loaves are🤤. Despite being a recipe from 1828 I have no doubt that they will agree with you even in the 21st century. These stuffed loaves were once very popular and could have been made with a filling of asparagus, meat or seafood cooked in cream. You will find the recipes translated into modern, easier to follow directions below. Like always you can see an image of the original recipe (or receipts as they used to be called) at the end of the video. I try to always follow the original no matter what, for better or for worse, as we're all here to see what food REALLY used to be like. Thank you for watching ❤.
Rice (Ground) Pudding, (The Cook's Dictionary, 1830):
1/4 cup rice flour
1 pint of whole milk
1 lemon's zest
1 teaspoon of cinnamon
1/3 cup of sugar
2 eggs, beaten
0.5 teaspoons of nutmeg
1 pie paste, for the bottom of a pie plate
In a cooking pot combine the rice flour, milk, lemon zest and cinnamon. Bring to a simmer and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove from your heat. Set aside to cool. Once it is only lukewarm add in your sugar, nutmeg and eggs. Stir up well then pour into a pie shell. Bake at 350 degrees for half an hour, or until the top is firm. Allow to sit for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
Mushroom Loaves (Modern Domestic Cookery, 1828)
Now, you can of course just purchase bread rolls however I highly recommend cooking these with the following 1750s bread recipe. This is my go-to bread recipe. It was kindly provided by a descendent of the original writer, who wrote down this recipe in French in the 1750s in Kaskaskia Illinois. Like many in the area she was a French immigrant who settled in the French Territories around modern day St. Louis. We live right across the river in Ste. Genevieve Missouri. I wouldn't be surprised if similar breads were eaten here. I use Rouge de Bordeaux flour, the most likely variety that was grown here in the early 1800s.
My go-to bread recipe:
3 cups of flour
1 to 1.5 cups of warm water
A generous dollop of sorghum (or honey, molasses)
1 teaspoon of salt
1 tablespoon of active dry yeast
Combine the flour, salt, sorghum, yeast and warm water in a bowl. Combine until well blended. Set aside in a warm place to let rise for 1 hour. After an hour kneed your dough on a well floured surface. Divide into 4 equal chunks. You may divide it into 6 pieces if you'd like smaller rolls. Form into rolls then again place in a warm place to rise for another hour. After the hour bake in a 350 degree oven for 30-40 minutes. Halfway through rub the tops with butter. These come out especially golden when baked using coals.
Mushroom Filling:
2 cups of button mushrooms, cleaned & cut up
1/4 cup of cream
1/4 cup of water
2 tablespoons of butter, rolled in flour
Salt & pepper to taste
In a cooking pot add your mushrooms and water. Boil for a few minutes then add the cream, butter rolled in flour, salt and pepper. Simmer for 5 minutes while stirring frequently. You may add a teaspoon more of flour if you want thicker gravy. After 5 minutes remove from your heat. Cut a hole out of the top of bread rolls. Scoop out as much of the crumb as is possible. Into this spoon in the above prepared mushroom gravy. Restore the cap to the top of the rolls. Bake in an oven on broil for a few minutes, or until they are crispy. You may use the leftover crumb to cleanup your cooking pot from gravy! Yum!
To Broil Beef Steaks, (The Female Economist 1810)
Beef steaks. Rump steaks are recommended in the original receipt
Butter, 1 teaspoon per steak
Salt & pepper to taste
Begin by beating the steak with a rolling pin on both sides. Over a hot BBQ grill, or a gridiron, lay down the steaks. When you are ready to flip them sprinkle them with salt & pepper, flip and sprinkle that side with more salt & pepper. Be sure to only flip them once during cooking. When done to your desired cooking level plate with a dab of butter below each steak. The original recipet recommends serving with a side of onions and/or mushroom ketchup.
Looks absolutely delish. You enjoyed pounding that steak, lol.😊😋😋
That looked absolutely incredible and the loving care and attention you gave it to make it just perfect…so amazing. I love mushrooms so can only imagine how incredible this tastes 🍄🍞
Yum
Thank you so much for bringing ASMR back!! Xxoo❤
Looks like a good recipe ❤
The more I watch these, the more profound respect and gratitude I have for my ancestors, male and female. Imagine preparing meals like this ON TOP of doing subsistence farming, hunting, caring for domestic animals, possibly fending off hostile neighbors (animal / human), maintaining your house and tools, keeping the kids from being carried off by critters or drowning in the creek... my pampered mind boggles. Thank you for these glimpses of a very different time and lifestyle.
Something a lot of people don't even think about today, is how much of a role even the kids played in helping feed the family. Even well into the 20th century, we saw kids going out hunting and trapping to help supplement the family food supply or to sell furs to make a bit of money, or both. It still isn't uncommon for kids as young as 3 to be participating in processing animals that will feed the family. Even in the modern world, there are a lot of traditional and experiences that holdover.
We make and preserve a lot of our own food here in my house still, but with the amazing modern gadgets like a KitchenAid, a dedicated powered meat grinder, and other motorized appliances.
Excellent point. When the "nearest" neighbor might be miles away, anyone old and well enough to work did.@@AscheOfTheLake
If you enjoy this/learning more about that, you might like the farm series! There's "Tales From the Green Valley" (medieval times, I believe), "Tudor Monastery Farm," "Victorian Farm," "Edwardian Farm," and "WWII Farm." They're about a group of archaeologists/historians who work through everyday life in the set time period. I absolutely adore them!!
@@hannahcollins1816 YES! They are really good! BBC, pretty sure. They really immerse themselves.
@@hannahcollins1816I love this series! I miss Ruth and “ the boys”
In an apocalypse, you and Ron would be just fine. You are a mistress of fire management and food prep! Love your channel! 💕
Roofmistress in certain fantasy worlds.
Not without a roof and such .. people will rob you
@@tinygrimNot really, if you’re out in the sticks like them and prepared you’ll be fine 👍
Agree
@@preppertrucker5736 easy to say.
We should never underestimate nor forget how hard our ancestors worked to take care of their families. We are truly blessed.
I own a really big old farmhouse in Cornwall England, its currently empty as we left the uk but a few years ago now when we lived there, the old 1970s fire place was taken out as we always thought there may be something behind it so it was a gamble but behind it was a beautiful wide fireplace and the original brickwork and a clome oven, fully intact with the door, built in to the side!! The place is around. 250 years old.. all it needed was the brickwork cleaning. We used a big beam from the old shippon to use across the top of the fireplace and slates rom the old barn to keep it original . Its about 8ft wide, the clome oven about 16” wide and goes back about 20” . 😊
When people talk about the good old days, I reflect on this and think, Nah! I'll keep my modern appliances
Because we, as humans, romantisize past having no knowledge beside films and tv shows. Also, we often miss something we don’t experience before 😅
Amen to that ❤
i think theyre talking about a more modern “good old days” than this 😅
The good old days where people didnt live past 30 and had to eat saw dust due to famine and poverty . No thanks
If these people were living today they would choose our modern day appliances
I’ve been bingeing your channel for a week or so now and I cannot get enough. Thank you so much for these videos, they bring me so much peace and has reignited my love for history. I hope you and Ron are well. ❤
"reignited my love for history." YES!!!! You made my day! 😍
Same here. Every week, I look forward to it.
Santeria1313, our family gathers weekly to watch Justine and Ron for over a year now. They bring history alive by making generations of past relatable as opposed to the distant sketch drawings in school textbooks. And what better way to do it, but with food. I just wish we were closer to perhaps bribe Justine with preparing a meal for us. Like Ron, I might finish the whole pie myself.
These videos are amazing and addictive! I have watched them all and now have to wait (with anticipation) on the weekly posts!
Out of curiosity which one has been your favorite video so far?
You do better in those conditions than I do in my modern kitchen.
Baking hack: If you ever get tired of scraping out the sorghum/Honey/Molasses, mix it into your liquids first. It will dissolve into it and you won't have leftover bits that can't be scrapped out. 😃
she's not much of a cook.
@@egay86292 If you don't like her channel, then stop watching. I happen to love Justine and her videos.
Lol,how are you?
I just love these videos! I love the sound of the crackling fire and the clink of pans and utensils, I love the sounds of nature; rosters crowing, birds chirping, rain or snow falling, and a meow from Mish. It all makes me want to build a cabin of my own! Women had to work very hard then just to grow/ gather food, prepare meals, and preform household duties! Wow! And Justine and Ron don't have children to care for... Yet. Kinda makes me rethink a cabin of my own!
Thank you Justine and Ron for your videos and an insight into life in the 18th and 19th centuries!
Hello, how are you?
You make fireplace cooking look easy - and everything looks so delicious 🤤. But you face when you were “tenderizing” that meat was priceless😂. Love your channel!
Yep! 😂 I thought-ooo that’s a good stress reliever!
You know who really made it look easy? Chef Staib from Recipe with a history. It was on PBS, and is here on the Tasty site. Of course, he did have a behind the scenes staff of 10 - 12 people helping.
Very good video. Something worth bearing in mind, but rarely discussed, is that historically the second greatest loss of life among women, after childbirth, was 'hearth death'. This was a euphemism for when women in long skirts who cooked with a down-hearth, caught fire themselves... 🙁
First thing that came to mind as that skirt swung near the embers.
I was thinking the same thing... I could see myself getting burned multiple times while trying to accomplish many of these tasks and it would be all too easy to bend over and touch a hem to a hot coal.
I also couldn’t help but think about that as I watched the cooking video.
I’m sure that she was very mindful of those embers, for she was working in a very small space, and I’m quite sure that she was very hot in there as well with that roaring fire!
However, I understand that she was taking us into a different time period and wanted to represent that in the video. Overall, I enjoyed the video very very much.
It´s a myth, the leading cause was disease, chilbirth coul come second but it was definitely not the leading cause.
And after that drowning, heavy woollen skirts while washing in the river and nobody could swim either
The amount of work you put into every video (and transcribing the receipts!) is astonishing. Thank you keeping these important skills and traditions alive. You are both treasures!
Food is life, and boy do you bring much earlier times to life for us. THANK YOU ❤❤❤
Blessed be the hands of the family's cherished wife and mother that kept them united through her hard work, love and dedication. This was so soothing to watch and enjoy.
I am so so proud of your hard work in these videos! Your dedication to this channel is inspiring thank you so much for always giving me something sooo cool to watch!!🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
This is awesome to watch. Informative and soothing ❤ BTW the way you placed your hands after you the set down the hour glass. Reminds me of myself with child with my first daughter. Just saying….❤
I would like to think that I could have done this when I was younger. But I'm 66 years old and with all the aches and pains I have, how did old people manage to even get food on the table, do laundry, keep up the house, garden and put up food for winter? It truly must have been gumption versus the elements. My great great great grandparents moved from Vermont to Wisconsin and lived in a lean to their first winter here. And my great great great grandmother was pregnant that year and had a baby. We need to pay homage to these heroes.
Also, I keep thinking that they had to have a way to cook outdoors in the summer. No way could they stand to have a roaring fire in the house in July!
@@terrimills8609 I never thought of that but cooking outside in the summer would be practical.
If we would just step back from modernity and work in this way, we would not have time for all the BS of the world. Thank you for sharing your skills with us. I lived off grid for several years. I got good bread over the fire.
Truth!
I love the decor and warmth of the cabin. Life was indeed so simple back then.
I thought that scratch cooking was a lot of work now, but boy! It was a lot harder for my great grandmother. You do amazing work. The cabin, stuffed with antiques is an amazing settling, and your dress is very authentic looking too.
But you make it look easy. Until I found your channel, I had no idea HOW people cooked with an open hearth. Thank you for this channel, I have learned so much more about life in those times!
Hello, how are you?
What a fine winter meal! Warms you inside and out. 🍽️
January 1830, after visiting Ron's and Justine's cabin, I will never forget what a crumb of bread is ever. That is when the crust of the bread is removed. I should have known this. Blessings all. From KY, it's cold. 😂😂😂 looked great Justine I will be trying the mushroom dish for sure!
I enjoyed the show you were on. You did a great job.
@@luvwings thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it!! I'm sure there will be more to come!
I never knew what crumb was either til that day!
I can see somebody not knowing. They talk about the crumb of baked goods all the time, but I can see it being one of those terms that people hear, but don't think about.
Still baking my old-fashioned European sour dough rye bread with just a few non GMO ingredients! 😊
Cooking on an open hearth is Definitely an Art. Great work!
Everything here looks unbelievably good! Especially on a cold, chilly day like today! There's nothing more filling and more delicious than steak and mushrooms!
Amazing video, as always! 😊
I swear you make that look so easy! ❤
Interesting that you could acquire sorghum, as it is somewhat hard to find nowadays. In the late 18th and early 19th centuries, New Englanders were encouraged to use both sorghum and Maple sugar as sweeteners, for the purpose of shunning the Molasses and sugar industry, and thereby not supporting slave labor.
Waited two whole days for this segment!! Love your channel.💞
We have decided that if we ever run away from home, we are taking you, Ron & your cookbooks with us. So fun watching & learning how it was done. This info would have done us well 40 years ago when taking our kids camping etc. Your time doing all this is so appreciated. So proud of you both.❤️❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸😊😊👍👍🌻🌻
You've done it again Justine. Despite just eating my dinner I am drooling over your amazing cooking!
Your fire management skills are just soooo impressive. What a pro.
🥰aw thank you! There is some room for improvement but I'm excited to practice over the rest of my life.
That bread looked awesome 🤤 TY for sharing these recipes of old 💗
I love watching your channel and appreciate what you do here. It's fabulous
I've been very curious about how they cleaned dishes, etc. back then.
I have a video on that! I hope that this helps. ruclips.net/video/SfJk6Ha6vOc/видео.html
Looks fantastic Justine, 1830's Panera bread mushroom bowls!😊
Haha I thought that they resembled bread bowls too!
Thank you for the recipes, I'll feel like I'm cheating using modern appliances! You do a great job of keeping your heat consistent when cooking!😊
OMG, I wanted to eat one of those loaves! This looks so yummy! I always wondered why they call that large pot a Dutch Oven. Now I see why! Who knew?! Thank you for sharing your expertise!
I have recently discovered your channel and Frontier Patriot. I love all of your videos. They really have been encouraging me to live a more simple and fulfilling life. Thank you for sharing these.
I LOVE THIS CHANNEL! SO SOOTHING!
Isn’t it though??!!!
Imagine how our ancestors has to deal a lot things to cook a nice meal on the table and take a lot of time to do it. To prepare a lot of stuffs , you need to have a lot of patience and love. It is so amazing delicious home cook. Now a days, we have all the modern equipment to use and fast too. We need appreciate them so much.
Back then women spent hours cooking! No micro wave ovens, no gas stoves, no kitchen aid machines!
I got worried when I didn't see Alfred Figg, but there he was sitting on the prep table. Great recipe, Justine. That shroom bread looks so yummy.
Miss Dorn, one of my favorites is the bread kneading bowl. My Nanny, Daddy’s mother, had a large wooden bowl in the lower cabinet, this was in the later 1960’s. Flour was always in the bowl. She would add what she needed for biscuits or bread. Your kneading bowl reminds me so much of my Nanny.
So it was normal, then, to leave flour and dough behind and not scrape the bowl?
@@trilbywilby7826 at my Nanny’s house. Yes, the flour stayed in the bowl, with a platter on top, and when biscuits were required, put ingredients in the well of flour. Mix it up, take the dough out and leave the flour for the next batch.
They were not using jest, but made it of the flour and water that is why the dough from the previous baking was left as a" jest" for next baking.
Adoro questo modo di vivere..quando si vedono questo video è come proiettarsi in un'altra epoca dove regna la pace e la serenità. ❤️
The rice pudding pie looks delicious. And those mushroom loaves also. Cannot wait to try. Thank you for providing the modern recipe.
The pie,mushroom loaves and steak look so delicious! I would love to have that for dinner! Justine you are an expert when it comes to cooking on the hearth, but I know it takes practice. Thank you for sharing this wonderful meal! Bon appetite 🌞🦋💖
Wonderful kitchen from 2 centuries ago.
Yummy!! That's a beautiful spread! Agree cooking is very hard and stressful! But that's how it is when it's your passion. That pie is Gorgeous!! Also, so relaxing to watch you. Thank you
That looked amazingly delicious. Can't wait to see the Chew and Chat...I wonder if Ron will even have anything to say when there is so much good food to be eaten. Thank you both for the education, entertainment and dinner inspiration.
This dinner looks delicious, especially the mushroom loaf. By the way, we have and use mushroom ketchup now ❤ for many of our meals. I always loved anything mushroom! Your love for cooking  is inspirational! Speedy restoration of health and vitality is my prayer. Blessings for all you do and share!
The egg tarts are so delicious, thank you for sharing
When I visited St Louis I went to see the Museum at the Gateway Arch and saw a lot of unique historical pieces and I automatically thought of you guys. It was beauty in simplicity yet resourcefulness within limitations of the era. A truly unforgettable experience. I am from Australia and some of our colonial history is similar. Because of interest in history I studied Bachelor of Sociology and Anthropology. You guys bring history to life 💕 Thank you for sharing!
Everything looks absolutely amazingly delicious! Very simple recipes but great tasting 🤩
Imagine all that - then add ten kids to that tiny house. Respect.
I dont know why but i enjoyed this recipe so much that im gonna try it!😁
The loaves are like our modern "soup bowls". I love cream of mushroom soup and I love home made bread with butter. These would be my favorite too 😂❤
I think I'll stick with my fan assisted, split oven! Much respect for these hard working women! 👍🇬🇧
WOW! This whole meal looks fantastic. You and Ron are most fortunate to be able to partake of your "labors"!
Thank you for sharing.
Wow! Those mushroom loaves look fabulous! You are such a joy to watch❤
Hello, how are you?
I love your channel, the recipes, the original cookware and utensils and especially the atmosphere of your cabin, so please do not take this the wrong way. How do you source your food? It's winter, so can you forage for the mushrooms? There is hunting, you have chickens so naturally eggs. But do you garden and can? And the lemons, which seem to be used often, were they expensive or available all year? I am just really curious.
I think I admire my ancestors more now that I watch your videos!!! To be able to cook, not burn the food, must have been challenging!!!! Now add some children running around and gardens to tend to !!!
You make everything look so easy! ❤
That looked delicious!! Looking at that rice pudding, it appeared to be the same texture as pumpkin pie. So could pumpkin pie more aptly be called “pumpkin pudding”?
Also - Thank you for the Christmas card!! 😊
Good job on reproducing the hard work of our ancestors. One question: did they not have scrapers back then? It seems they wouldn't have wasted a drop or a crumb by leaving so much flour, dough, eggs, sorghum, etc. clinging to the sides of the bowl. Or is it just for your filming purposes that so much cooking material is left behind?
This looks like a delicious meal! And all my husband's favorites.
All I want to do is sit by the fire in your cosy cabin! My first winter in 50 years! 😊
We ordered Sorghum after watching your video. It arrived today. The flour is available at our grocery, but not the syrup. It is so good, sweet but not too sweet. Great substitute for sweetener. Looking forward to all the recipes we can use it in. Next grocery day will pick up some sorghum flour. Supposed to be good for low or no gluten diets. See, we are learning so much from you. ❤❤❤
Looks delicious! I love watching and listening to this.
It looks delicious. It would be ungrateful to ask for a second serving in light of the many steps It took to make the first servings. Time consuming for sure. A labor of love to live in these times. Thank you for sharing. 🇺🇲
💕 💕💕💕💕Ron & Justine, Happy 20th Wedding Anniversary!! May your creativity and passions continue to keep you both so very happy with one another.💕💕. May God continue to bless you both with many many more years of love and happiness.💕💕💕
Watching you in this cozy cottage cooking all the delicious recipes in the oldfashioned way and in this calm atmosphere gives me comfort and peace. A wonderful time out from our hectic world
That fire looks so cozy! 😊 And the food looks yummy!
Just Amazing! I just Love watching your recipes! I could live in a cabin and cook over a wood stove, but not like you ! Love from Michigan U.S.A...
No sugar, no seed oil, no deep frying the carbs. All you need to take from this.
This is sooo relaxing to watch! Thanks for all the work and the effort you've put in it
Watching you cook these old recipes is fascinating! I love these videos.
For my taste, one of, if not the most delicious videos of yours yet! Got me thinking of real mushroom soap, and just love the bread and, beef steaks! Thank you for your time in making this video.
America's first bread bowl...with cream of mushroom soup, at that.
The meal looks so delicious. Thank you, Justine for the recipes.
This is a meal I am making for my husband. He's going to love it. 3 things he adores. Bread, mushrooms, and steak. This will become his favorite meal. I can't wait to try it.
I'm a little intimidated by using yeast (never used it before), but I've got to try these mushroom rolls!! They look so delish!
❤ it! I love everything about it!!!!🚂🇺🇸🥰🍙🥘🍖🌽🥧🥮🍯❤
That looks delicious. Kinda looks like biscuits an gravy with mushrooms.
These videos have literally cured my anxiety. I have no idea why watching this is so relaxing. I am addicted.
wow I find this so relaxing… I love it ❤
واو😍 جمال طبيعه شكد أحب جو القديم وجواء ريف اني من العراق حبيت اتابعكم ❤😍
Oh my goodness, Miss Justine, that meal looks Superb ! Thank you for the receipts, I must make this !
Those look so good. I'll have to try and make that rice pudding and mushroom loaves for myself. I have never seen a rice pudding in a pie crust before.
I’m sorry I died laughing at the egg whisking 😂 oh my lawd I wouldn’t have made it in these times if I had to tie some twigs together to be a whisk
I noticed that too, and I’m like whoa, how creative they had to be!
I am so worried when yours and Ron's videos don't come on Wednesday. Yours are my favorite videos. Blessings to you both.
Love it. Shows us what and how to do, if we get thrown back into the stone age! 👍👍👍
Now there you go again, I just finished supper and this episode instantly made me hungry!
That rice pudding sounds absolutely wonderful !
Omg....i cant wait to make this. It looks sooo good! I make rice pudding sometimes but the way you made it with the crust looks divine, it almost looks like a souffle. The mushroom gravy in the bread bowls looks wonderful and the bread looks so flaky. I love your channel. I love watching you cook and i love making your recipes .❤ I get so many complements when i make the food from your channel. So often when i cook recipes from your show no one has ever had what ive made. I tell everyone about you and your channel. The recipes you bring back to life are so much better than the way we cook today.
Спасибо,что создаёте такое видео,как в сказку попала,в позапрошлый век❤
The mushroom rolls are amazing. Everything you make looks delicious.
Cooking over a fireplace is tough I'm sure but I would worry about my dress catching on fire. That is scary. I love sorghum. I remember my grandmother making biscuits and we would have sorghum. I love watching your videos.
Quel travail ! Quelle précision ! Merci.
The USA was lucky in large parts of Europe at this time there was famine and fuel shortages etc
My Croatian Grandmother recalls walking for hours in the fields to collect a basket of snails and edible weeds to collect enough for a meal and told me her grandmother lived an even harder existence
Mr fig looks great in his winter attire, must be the latest thing from Pairs for the upwardly mobile young rabbit.
Wow . 👌 wonderful I enjoy all your episodes
mi querida abuela cocinaba a leña y cada comida suya tenia un sabor unico, verte cocinar me recordo lo mucho que la extraño , desde Argentina sudamerica
All looks delicious and yummy I love it thank you
