It's the height of summer at Audley End House and Mrs Crocombe is preparing a summer salad of vegetables, with aspic jelly. This 'salad' is based on a homemade mayonnaise, but filled with delicate diced vegetables, surrounded with asparagus and decorated with jewel-like pieces of aspic - a jelly made from meat stock.

It's scorching hot outside but there's always SHADE at Audley End!
Not in my part of the world it’s freezing….. I’m in the Southern Hemisphere and it’s our winter 🤣🤣
@@xr6lad Same it's raining cats & dogs here. & I'm currently rugged up like an Eskimo.
And the shade reached ill-equipped kitchens everywhere. 😄
@@spacewolfcub so true 😅🤣
Where I am, the river is practically dry and all the grass is dead. Shade please!
Mrs Crocombe acknowledging Mary-Anns work on the vegetables AND throwing shade on the French chef who came before her made my day!
Knowing what I do of French Chefs of the day, I'm all for that shade getting thrown so beautifully.
I hope they keep up the off-screen arc of Mary-Ann slowly earning Mrs Crocombe's trust and respect!
@vanya would make perfect sense as I would imagine it was, and sometimes still is, regarded as the highest cuisine standard
😆
I live for the drama 😂
"If you work in an ill-equipped kitchen" - once again Mrs. Crocombe, throwing the most iconic shade ever thrown.
Giving that Susie Blake Continuity Announcer causticity 😍😈
We need to be reminded of our place in society.
Looking for a comment about this, haha!
I felt that shade so much my body temperature just dropped 10 degrees! :D
Lording it over us that we don’t measure up. 😉
“And didn’t know his way around a pudding”. I’m surprised the family tolerated such insolence.
Can you imagine coming to work for the likes of Lord and Lady Braybrooke and being that unprepared? The sheer embarrassment; no wonder they hired Mrs. Crocombe instead.
@@TheWeeklyFangirl
Off with their head
@@KanishQQuotes LOL!! that cochon! Ms Crocombe sharp tongue makes the Guilltine seem like a tortuous affair. And any chef not knowing "his way around a pudding" (is that an euphemism for something...lol) deserves punishment! lol
They didn't though 😂
well, hes gone now, isnt he?
MRS CROCOMBE: "For my mayonnaise, I'm going to use..."
ME: "Oh." * puts away jar of Hellmann's *
😂 me too.
You guys at English Heritage had better be paying Kathy handsomely, and taking good care of her.
She's a celebrity now.
It would be amazing if we could watch the family eat a meal made by Mrs. Crocombe. Like a Victorian era muckbang but 100% fancier 😂
I love that Mrs Crocombe only added a single slice of celeriac for a hint of exotic taste. Wouldn't want to shock the Lord and Lady's tastebuds!
Woah woah woah, this would be for a ladies lunch.
Lord Braybrooke would never eat this.
@@DavidMarvin even food has gendered and segregated lol
How come celeriac is exotic in the UK when Germans have cooked the most rural food with this for centuries?
@@Baccatube79 This is during the Victorian age when most foods OUTSIDE of UK was considered "exotic" when it's common everywhere else. Besides, we don't want people accusing the Lord and Lady of being decadent wanton and culinarily immoral. lol
@@elitedangeroustheworldnext9086 It was! Go back to the 1810s and lunch itself was only eaten by fine ladies and only while in town.
I now know my kitchen is ill equipped as I don't own a Charlotte mould. However, I do use "exotic" celeriac in my cooking so I don't feel too crushed by Mrs Crocombe's shade. It's so wonderful to have her back 👑
I didn't even know Celeriac existed until Mrs. Crocombe mentioned it lollol
I don't own a Mary Ann. I could really do with one of those...
I bet you use your Turbot Kettle for making puddings... absolutely unacceptable.
You have to be STRONG to be around Mrs. Crocombe.
We need English Heritage to produce t-shirts that read ‘For this recipe you will need’ and a picture of Mrs C head!
I second that request!
And aprons!
“For this recipe, you will need…
…SHADE.”
I’d buy it.
I want a picture of a turbot on mine 🤣
@@oldvlognewtricks 😂
Imagine being a French chef who doesn’t make puddings and works in an ill-equipped kitchen 🙄
Bet that, back in France, his ears were burning.
I. just. died. LOL. Joan of Arc was less incinerated. Oops.. too soon?
Mrs. Crocmbe is a mood today! Flexing the Latin, dissing the French chef and dismissing ill-equipped ketchens. Today is a good day!
She woke up and chose violence.
Fancy molded salads remained popular until the 1970s. General Foods, the maker of Jello, issued many cookbooks full of recipes using their product. In the 1960s, there were even Tomato, Mixed Vegetable, and Celery flavours of Jello, just for savoury salads.
I saw these crazy dishes on the TV show The Supersizers... It's absolutely incredible that anyone can enjoy this. Although I love kholodets (meat jelly), when my mom makes it, it's way more meat than jelly. haha
When I married in 1962, I received Joys of Jello as a shower gift, there were some amazing molded vegetable salads in it. I think Mrs Crocombe might approve!
I didn't know about that! I was a little kid at the time, guess my mom didn't buy the savory flavors. I remember a lot of 'raspberry Jello' 😋.
Probably killed by the awful kraft food commercials. Their version would by "gelatin with miracle whip and a can of mixed vegetables, decorate with parsley and coloured marshmallows "
@@Earthy-Artist My Aunt Charlotte used to make what we called Carrot Jello with one box each lemon and lime jello, shredded carrots, and crushed pineapple, topped with commercial mayonnaise. I loved it then but I've never had the guts to try making it myself. I think most people now make it with orange jello and call it Sunshine Salad. I hate orange jello.
Armans, cayerne peppern and SORCE
Lol RUclips asking me if I want to translate this comment to English 😂
novympia brought me here too 😭
Even a French chef can't hold a candle to Mrs. Crocombe. I love her shade and sass! 😎💅 I feel called out for my ill equipped kitchen and lack of exotic ingredients 😅
There is a French chef in Puteaux who thinks it's 1500 and any female is a witch.
@@havanadaurcy1321 wait what?
@@havanadaurcy1321 ok this is interesting....tell me more about it
"She's a splendid cook. Bit eccentric, however. Yes, talks to an imaginary twenty-first century audience whilst she works, you know."
I've lived all my life in the southern United States and I'm shocked I've never seen mayonnaise jello at a potluck.
We use Miracle Whip.
Maybe your kitchens are too ill-equipped.
Bahahaha. That comment made me nearly snort out my tea.
For this recipe you will need…..One of the best lines ever. I binge watched all episodes. The history is wonderful, Mrs Crocombe is marvelous.
My dad and I cook together and I use it every time!
Ditto
Only thing i hear in my head after hearing: For this recipe you will need; ( is TURBOT in a shouting way) the mrs. Crocombe parody. Insane and funny
I'm surprised this one didn't contain some booze.. lol
As a french, I feel so honored by Mrs Crocombe shade toward the french Chef... ^^
They payed 120£ to Monsieur Merer and about 50£ to Ms Crocombe
“…or a funnel, if you are in an ill-equipped kitchen”
(Me, in my barely-equipped kitchen)
Yasss Queen!
Looking at the lovely flower shapes of the chopped vegetables, "Poor Marryanne."
Green beans, asparagus, mayonnaise, cauliflower, AND boiled eggs? That ladies luncheon is gonna be so whiffy from all the wind breaking.
Really? Asparagus and mayo and eggs give you wind? Poor you ;)
@@corvuscorone7735 of course! Eggs give lovely sulphuric wind.
This salad reminds me of the gelatin salads from the 60's, when anything and everything would be put into a mold, including vegetables and mayonnaise!
I remember those first- hand at church meals. Depending on the cook and ingredients, it could go either way.
@@bvillebikelady3651 À
That's what aspic is
Ah yes, Therapy!
The character she plays is so plain yet so entertaining. Truly charismatic
While I certainly can't throw shade like The Queen-I can make mayonnaise. It's actually quite easy to make at home. I use a whole egg, tsp of mustard, tsp or two of lemon juice or white vinegar, salt, then mix in a blender. Drip or drizzle the oil in while the blender is running and in just a few minutes, the most delicious mayo you've ever eaten. No preservatives plus it's much cheaper than store bought.
Agreed. easy and delicious to make. And if you afterwards add chopped gherkins and chopped raw onions, you have what we call "remouladen sauce", which goes perfectly on thin slices of cold roast beef.
I put all ingredients in a jar and use my immersion blender to whip it up..no need to drizzle the oil and it comes out fantastic.
@@corvuscorone7735 Also goes well with fried fish
My sister makes her own mayonnaise, and then makes ranch dressing with it, with her own home-grown herbs. It's funny how different something homemade can be from something you buy in a plastic bottle.
I still wouldn't eat that "salad" though
@@daenas I use this method too, it's awesome
ANOTHER Mrs. Crocombe video this month??? I see the light and there's hope for this world.
"You could also use a funnel if you work in an ill equipped kitchen"
Me: *has neither a mould or a funnel* =,)
"...if you work in an _ill-equipped_ kitchen"
I am definitely going to use "You wouldn't know your way around a pudding" in a future argument.
Suitable for Lady Braybrook, and six of her ladies, even though eight will show unexpectedly. 😊
They wouldn't dare!
Maryanne will gob in the marmalade ice again......
"...very extravagant and didn't know his way around a pudding..." Something tells me that may have played a part in him not being around anymore.
I *_DO_* say!!
I should just like to point out that I, unlike a certain French chef, am not extravagant, and certainly do know my way around a pudding! Also, though I do not have a Charlotte mould, I would never use a - gasp - funnel! Perish the thought!
Another splendid video with beautiful food and plenty of shade alongside!
Will a Charletton mold do? :p
You know it’s a bonus that she doesn’t really awesome recipes but the truth is I watch Mrs. Crocombe just cause she can throw down the shade like nobody else
Wheeeeeeeee I’m so excited!!!!
English heritage should give Mrs. Crocombe her own channel. After all she’s the most popular person on English heritage and she is a force to be reckoned with
I second this!
Thirded!
4thd
But how would Lord and Lady Braybrook get their meals if their cook was busy making videos?
@@Heather-Luper 5thd
Can't do without a bit of shade, now, can we? LOVED this! I mean, how can a chef not know his way around pudding? :)
I imagine it was about him being a French chef and the pudding being English
I was having a tough day. Then Mrs.Crocombe showed up on my feed and my good mood is restored! The theme song has a way of inducing instant calm and serenity!
When the world needs shade the most, she appears
Mrs.Crocombe throwing shade at that french chef like nothing xD I love her ♡
As a (brazilian) portuguese native speaker, hearing Ms. Crocombe pronouncing "sal" (salt) perfectly Just made my Day! My heart melted.
Também fiquei feliz quanto, quando ela fez esse comentário.
I mean, the correct pronunciation isn't hard for native English speakers....?
@@aLaMode298 it's not just the corret pronuciation, i'ts also the accent, or most importantly, the lack of a english accent in a latin word when it is spoken. Specially for English people. If you speak a neo latin language, specially portuguese, your ears would be able to recognize it.
This is probably the first savory aspic recipe I have seen that I actually think looks tempting!
Agreed!

I love the way your eyes sparkle when they catch the sun. like beef jelly shining in the dining room light.
It's amazing how such a simple recipe can be presented so elegantly. I had heard of molded salads, but I don't think I've seen any quite so appealing as this one.
The French cook Merer didn’t know his way around a pudding! Oh the shade.
Mrs. C: "Mayonnaise takes time and patience to make"
Me: "Not if I've got a jar of Duke's in the fridge.
Surely Hellman’s.
Nope, no Hellmans in the South. Dukes!
@@sharonsmith583 oh, you’re…… American.
@@MaximilianvonPinneberg Southern American
So happy to see another shade throwing episode. Can't say the stuff looked appetizing but I love the show.
Vegetable Mayonnaise Jelly never looked so good lol
We are being spoiled!! 2 videos in a month. Bless her!
Mrs. Crocombe's shade is what's keeping me cool this summer.
Blessed with another premier of our Queen of Shade please please please let this recipe have Almernds and some Angeliker 😭
I love the way the panning shot of the finished salad matches the drone footage of the house.
You are right! You really have "an eye for detail", which Mrs. Crocombe has mentioned today as a condition for making good sallad :)
A friend has a running gag on her facebook page posting ads from 50s 60s of ghastly jello dishes. I sent her this as an early precursor addition. 😂
didn’t know his way around a pudding! oh Mrs Crocombe! 😀
"What dish should I bring to the pot-luck?
-We don't really trust your cooking skills nor your ill-equipped kitchen; so just bring a simple salad."
My simple salad:
Tease!!
Early Mrs. Crocombe: If you work in a modest home and they don't have an ice cream maker 😔
Current Mrs.Crocombe: You can mould this with a funnel, if you work in an ILL EQUIPPED KITCHEN 😤
I love this channel, been a subscriber for years now. I even made my husband watch every new video with me :D It would be awesome if you also show how the dishes are eaten, after the preparation. Most of them look very complicated to eat clean, and I was wondering how the ladies would approach such a salad, who actually cuts it, and how they manage to not mess everything up :)
I was thinking the same thing
I'm always up for more shade from our beloved Mrs Crocombe. This humble peon sends his thanks from the former Colony known as Canada.
I am so here for Mrs. Crocombe and the shade! I absolutely love her!
The Victorian vegetable salad is the equivalent (but healthier?) version of the 1950s fruit jello salads 🤣
Yay. Another one to add to my playlist! For winter evenings!
"And he didn't know his way around a pudding!" The ultimate insult!
I have the utmost pleasure to be able to visit Audley End in 2 weeks and it's like a dream come true! Nothing but admiration for Mrs. Crocombe and the dedicated staff who preserve this place's historical authenticity. 💕
Girl where you been?
I can hardly wait for the not so subtle shade!
Ah Mrs. Crocombe always throwing a bit of British Shade.😂
I had a rough day today at work. This honestly made me calm down and feel better. Thanks Mrs. Crocombe ❤
Is there a reason a whisk was not used on the mayonnaise? They predate the era.
Thank you for voicing my question, I kept thinking this will never work without a whisk.
:And now this is ready for the refridgerato--the icebox." 🥰🥰😝😝LOVE Mrs. Crocombe!
Mrs Crocombe was quite correct in her use of the word "refrigerator". It's simply a word meaning any cool room or cold storage place and was in use hundreds of years before eletrified refrigerators were invented.
"Because lunch wasn't quite disgusting enough." Lol
I love how many people watch these knowing only a couple handfuls of viewers will actually make this.
Honestly Mrs crocombe has such a old rustic warn vibe, like going home to grandma's.
Ah, there she is Mrs.Mrs Crocombe is back! Made my day
OMGGGG SHE'S BACK
Omg yass queen, Imma prepare a turbot soup to eat while watching this
I haven’t been able to sit down and watch these videos because of school and work but when I do, it’s a treat. Literally. Love you, Mrs. Crocombe!
I was worried we were going to decorate with quail feet. Thankfully not
Hello! I have a question :
Are there recipes from this time period/ avis’s cookbook that wouldn’t be presented on this channel due to a controversial/potentially dangerous ingredient and or cooking method?
There's one episode where she uses green food coloring, but mentions hers is nontoxic since cheap green food coloring in her time was potentially hazardous.
I'm so happy 😊
Mrs C, I am coming to visit Audley End this September! Just wanted to let you know so if there is an unexplained swooning during the kitchen tour, you know it's me fainting at seeing you in person!
(For real, if anyone knows how I can see if Kathy is going to be there any given date, PLEASE let me know!)
Maybe check their web sight or send them a e-mail?
I wish they would upload more cooking videos like this I can't get enough of the Victorian way.
She's back i love her ❤️
So happy to hear that my kitchen isn't ill-equipped! I love my vintage copper molds!
He didn't know his way around a pudding. That is some savage Victorian shade!
I’m looking forward to what you’ll create at Christmastime this year! Enjoyable video as always! 👍🏻❤️
Thumbs up for those of us with ill equipped kitchens.
What a lovely salad Mrs Crocombe!
Thank you dear, would you like some?
Oh dear, I'm sorry Mrs Crocombe, I forgot a pressing engagement...
I still can't get over how epic the Novympia parody was. So good.
Yes!!
Most of these recipes I would love to try on my own.
Except this one with jellied mayonnaise.
Happy to have so much great Mrs Crocombe videos.
So delighted!
I want to know what that jingle they play for these videos is called.
I want them to release it as its own video, so I can loop it as I assemble ingredients every time I cook. :)
@@spacewolfcub Mm…
I am so happy to see another episode! I’ve missed Mrs Crocombe 😊
YAY!! Another Mrs. Crocombe! Thank you, English Heritage! I needed this today.
It's my birthday in an hour from now and I got a Mrs. Crocombe upload???? Best present ever!
Happy birthday 🥳
i love mrs crocombe she's the best cook in the world
This was my first time hearing about several of these ingredients and their uses. You learn something new every day!
YES! SHES BAAACK ❤️❤️❤️
Literally discovered this channel less than a month ago and binged everything in 3 days! I’ll come back and watch when I get off my shift ❤️
Me encantan tus recetas!!!
